What is the best WordPress permalink structure?
The default WordPress permalink structure is not very SEO friendly as they looks like some “domain.com/?p=123” URL format.
From the SEO point of view most likely the “domain.com/postname” alone or the “domain.com/category/postname” URL formats are the best choice.
/%category%/%postname%/
I recently use the “Pretty Permalinks” option which gives the “domain.com/2008/05/16/postname” URL format. I don’t change my site permalink format, because i started the blog with this option for better readability.
Web based content management systems
I am interesting in content management and systems used. Nowadays there are lot of web based cms solutions, but only few can satisfy the real professional requirements with top usability. Here is a list of mostly free common web based blogs, wikis or portal systems i experienced with or at least tested. Most of web server programs written in php language and requires MySQL database server to store the data. The installation is easy and only basic level of webmastering knowledge required or supported by your hosting provider.

Submit site to search engines
Why submit a website?
There could be situations, when web crawlers and spiders loose your track. Sometimes you can notice that results from search engines doesn’t contains your page, besides it’s valuable content.
The most popular search engines where you can submit your pages
Google spider
A Google kereső robot nem egyszerre indexeli be az egész website-ot, hanem bizonyos időközönként látogatja meg az oldalakat, hogy róluk információt gyűjtsön.
