Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I'm assuming the permalink is the domain.com/blog/year/month/date/postname type structure, the Wordpress default? Going from so many unnecessary folders to fewer seems like it can only speed things up a bit. I'd recommend a structure such as domain.com/recipes/�tegory%/%postname%/ if you have them categorized by types of meal. Google likes to see a logical folder structure. Makes for solid human readability as well. And don't forget to redirect old permalinks to new permalinks. If there are any posts linked out there, you'll want to be sure they redirect to the new permalink.

Hi there There's a great URL structure resource from Moz located here, as well as a great information architecture resource here. I suggest checking it out. Generally it's better to be shorter with your URL structure. I would use option B if it were my choosing, because you could easily making it... www.domain.com/italian-recipes/chicken-parmesan Otherwise you are doing... www.domain.com/recipes/italian/chicken-parmesan You create a deeper page level with option A, making pages "less" important and farther away from the domain, which is the most important aspect of your URL. Keep pages and crawl depth as shallow as possible so that pages don't get buried and lost in the crawl. My opinion, go option B, but also review the resources above. Hope this helps! Good luck!

Thanks for the response! I already have the rel=next and prev added to the page but I'm still getting Duplicate Page Title errors in my dashboard for all of my subpages (such as http://thelemonbowl.com/breakfast/page/2). Should I be setting a 'noindex' to my subpages to prevent this from happening? Thanks again!
