WordPress Tweak #1

One of the most important tweaks to WordPress is setting up your permalinks. The default permalinks are not the best settings for SEO. I recommend that you set up custom permalinks.

So go to Settings--> Permalinks

then click the radio button "custom structure" and enter this value:

/%category%/%postname%

click "save changes"

so that will produce a URL for your posts that would look something like this:

http://karenblundell.com/new_age/meditate-zen-garden which is so much better for SEO than

http://karenblundell.com/?p=123 right?

more WordPress tweaks will be forthcoming...please feel free to add your own to this thread...

Mine does that automatically.  Not sure what pluggin or widget does it, but it's automatic.
