Best SEO URL for WordPress

The URL structure is something you should care about when installing a WordPress site.

First of all go to Settings -> Permalinks

Once there select Custom Structure and write this in the text field:

/%postname%/

Should look like this screenshot:

What it does is change the way your site is going to work with the links.

Example:

• Before: http://php.quicoto.com/?p=2
• After: http://php.quicoto.com/best-cache-plugin-for-wordpress/

Important Note: I do not recomend to change the URL structure if you are already using a diferent one. You will lose Google Indexing and a lot of 404 errors. If you really need to you can install some plugin to manage those redirects.
