Hi Ariah,
I wouldn’t say that it’s “beneficial or useless”. the fact that you have the post title listed makes it easier for search engines to index your post.

However, the dates doesn’t make much of a difference, except for a longer URL.

Hi Fenton,
Thanks for the comment.

Your previous might’ve been caught by the blog spam filter.

I’ve not checked your blog for a certain of time due to my other assignment and I’m really missing out now. (A lot of great posts to read!)

I’ve commented on the mitigation plugin on your post ‘Blog Permalink Structure Optimization and Bringing Hordes of Traffic Over’ but it seems that it has been filtered out. Anyway, it’s great that you have tested it and let’s the world knows about Dean Lee’s creation.

Keep up the good works and God bless.

Actually, if you think about it, from a usability standpoint, it helps if you have a single category for your post.

Most posts could fall into multiple categories for me too, although if you go to a library and a book could be found in multiple sections, sure it might sound very convenient, though I feel it defeats the purpose of having a category.

IMO trying to be everything, may end up meaning nothing.

In fact, I’ve been using /category/post-name/.

However, lately I’ve found myself using multiple categories per post in certain cases, and using such a permalink causes problems. (multiple pages with same content, which category should be the main one etc)

wondering whether there’s a better permalink structure

Good luck on your permalink migration.

Do remember to do a backup before you install this because the wrong permalink configuration could render much of your blog inacessible.

If you enjoyed this plugin, send some link love, Dean and Ade’s way too.
