Convert Blog Search Pages to SEO Friendly URLs

August 25, 2010 by Jay Bhawani 5 Comments

Wordpress SEOTraffic is the key to everything and if your blog has no visitors then its completely useless to waste your time in adding content to the blog. You will have to always focus on the Search Engine Optimization after the content part in this there are multiple steps to be performed. One of these is On-Page optimization where in you make changes to your blog to make sure its Search Engine friendly and all the pages are crawled by the search engines.

In this article we will suggest you to use a nice and simple WordPress plugin which is going to convert all the search pages of your blog into seo friendly URL’s which if indexed can increase the pages on your blog and also the chances of more pages in the search engines which would lead to more visitors.

Normally when you make a search on a blog, it would lead to a URL which would be something like this –
http://www.amitbhawani.com/?s=seo

But by using and implementing this wordpress plugin the URL’s will change to
http://www.amitbhawani.com//search/seo which is going to remove the spaces, question marks and converts all the blank spaces which come in case of search phrases into + sign.

This WordPress plugin can be downloaded here. The main job of this plugin is to redirect the searched page, because the /search function is already part of the blogging script. You can mix this plugin with the Search Everything WordPress plugin for best results.

    Is there a plugin that does something similar for WordPress blogs using Google Search instead of the built-in WordPress search?

    I have been using wordpress.com for blogging and there is no option for using plugins unless i use wordpress.org which is quite difficult to operate and understand sometimes. Is their any easier way for making this possible for my blog.

    In wordpress there is a way to change to custom permalinks. Click settings>permalinks and then click “custom.” Add /%postname%/

    You will have cleaner permalinks that won’t require a new plugin.
