1.1 Introduction

Hello, and welcome to this Tuts+ course on WordPress Permalinks. My name is Rachel McCollin, and in this course I'm gonna show you everything you need to know to optimize your permalinks and slugs in WordPress for SEO and user experience. So I'll start by explaining the difference between permalinks, URLs, and slugs, and I'll use a few examples of blog posts and URLs within my site to show you. I'll then explain why it's important to optimize your permalinks and slugs for SEO and also for user experience. Having done that, I'll demonstrate how you can change the permalink settings in your site so you have pretty permalinks. And how you can edit the slugs for your posts and your categories so that they're optimized for SEO and user experience. Watch this course and learn everything you need to know about WordPress Permalinks.
