In the previous post, we discussed permalinks. These actually are the permanent URLs or web addresses that point to individual posts, pages, or other types of content on a WordPress website. Permalinks are an essential part of a website’s URL structure and play a significant role in search engine optimization (SEO) and user experience.
Now to set or modify the permalink structure in WordPress:
- Go to the WordPress dashboard.
- Navigate to “Settings” > “Permalinks.”
- Choose the desired permalink structure from the available options or create a custom structure using tags.
- Save your changes.
When setting up permalinks, it’s important to choose a structure that is clear, concise, and relevant to your website’s content. SEO-friendly and user-friendly permalinks can improve search engine rankings, increase click-through rates, and enhance the overall user experience on your WordPress website.
