Permalinks best structure
-
Hello all,
1. I have a website under WordPress and I would like to know whici is the best permalink structure? I have seen in many post that /%postname%/ would be the best in terms of SEO although performance is not very good (But in WP latest version the speed issue has been solved?).
2. Additionally I would like to know if in terms of SEO it is better to publich the content as a page or as a post. The page publishing allows to have the path:
www.example.com/page/subpage/etc... root that I understand is good for SEO?
3. How does affect for SEO a page i.e. www.example.com/page1 with links to different posts that have the permalink structure i.e: /%postname%/
I mean, if I click on the page www.example.com/page1 and then in the link to the POST inside that page and I am redirected to www.example.com/post
How does affect the SEO?
Thank you very much for the help,
Best regards,
Antonio

You might get a slightly faster page load if you make custom .htaccess redirects, which should be possible for you. I'd go for page publishing. I would not have one link after another to get to a page. Minimize clicks to destination for best UX. If you're writing for a niche topic, then yes URL alone and presence of relevant keywords may do it for you but otherwise they are only part of the strategy.
