Optimize Blog Post URL with SEO Slugs Wordpress Plugin

Whenever i write a article in Wordpress, the CMS would automatically create a ‘Permalink’ also called as the ‘Post Slug’ which would have all the words you have mentioned in the Blog Post title along with a ‘hiphen’ between all the words. You can understand this when you will be seeing the following example :

wordpress seo slugsBlog Post Title : Apple iPhone App to see others Completely Nude
Blog Post URL : http://www.amitbhawani.com/blog/apple-iphone-app-to-see-others-completely-nude/

In the above example you can see that there are 8 different words in the post slug which are making the URL totally lengthy and also most of the words mentioned in the URL are useless, hence the rankings would be hard. A better solution would be when you would just have the main keywords in the post url which can help you in easy rankings, for which there is a Wordpress Plugin which can remove all the common words like ‘a’, ‘what’, ‘you’, ‘can’, ‘the’, ‘in’ from the blog posts for better Search Engine Optimization. The plugin will automatically remove the useless common words and while you click on Publish Button, the post would be published with main preference to the keywords from the title.

You can download this plugin from here. Now, when editing a post, give it a title and press Save and Continue Editing. The SEO Slugs plugin will generate a slug. If you edit it, the plugin will honor your slug and won’t change it.
