Can the dashes in permalinks be removed? Does this affect performance from an SEO/SERP standpoint? I transfered to a new domain, and it added the "-2" at the end of the posts Only way I can remove it is to remove all the dashes from between the words but dont want to jack with anything
Use underscores instead of something like dash to serve as spaces between words as Google views dashes as word separators and equivalent to a space. When considering how to setup permalinks, you want to put some thought into how you want the web addresses on your website to look to both your users and your search engine spidery friends.
