.htaccess

Hello,

How to make .htaccess file in wordpres to make seo friendly urls

 

You don''t need to use the .htaccess file.

You can do this under Permalinks in settings.

 

Use the built in permalinks and it will create htaccess file for you if needed.

settings>permalinks

this is my preference: /%postname%.html

but there are many others. The reason I link this way is because so many people who do not use WordPress are used to seeing an .htm or html extension and will often type it in when they are manually linking back to your page. If you leave it up to them to choose to add or not add a trailing slash you divert your SEO potential.

 

/%postname%.html ?

i use /%postname%/

what is the different?
