WordPress Permalinks info

WordPress Permalinks info

Where do I find permalinks in WordPress?
 
 In the wp-admin post or page editor the permalink is displayed under the title by default. You just click on the edit button beside the permalink to edit it. In either case, only the slug may be edited
 
What happens if I change my WordPress permalinks?
 
It's 'permanent' because the link isn't meant to be changed, as this would break any existing links to the corresponding page. Aside from directing users to specific web pages, permalinks can also tell users what the page contains (for example, a WordPress blog post)
 
What is the difference between a permalink and a URL?
 
The permalink is the full URL you see – and use – for any given post, page or other pieces of content on your site. It's a permanent link, hence the name permalink. It could include your domain name (www.yoast.com) plus what's called a slug, the piece of the URL that comes after the domain name.
 
Do Permalinks affect SEO?
 
Permalinks mean permanent links and should stay so! Changing them can hurt your SEO and cause your rankings in search engines to drop. You'll also lose out on your referral traffic from people who've shared your content on social media. As well as all backlinks you've managed to get to your site.
