    Hi you guys,


    i have a wordpress movie site and i enabled the short url plugin.
    Here is an example of one of my urls at the moment

    http://moviebegins.com/daybreakers/

    or do i need to put a category before the name of the movie.
    I have 2 categories: Movies and Series

    So the other options are http://moviebegins.com/movies/daybreakers/
    or http://moviebegins.com/series/daybreakers/

    Which one is better for SEO.The first one because its shorter or the second one because its organized in archives.

    i appreciate your help

    thanks

    no 1 is the best because it Focus on The main keyword for content

    when i click the 2 links you gave me i see .com/category/title of movie

    and not .com/title movie

    So which one is better in your opinion.
    the hierarchy/archive url or the title name movie url?

    ok so i need to do it like the way surfers search on google am i right?

    Let say daybreaker and my site is domain.com

    then it would be domain.com/watchdaybreakeronline am i right?


    watch daybreaker online has more searches then the one you proposed.
    thanks for the tips

    Personally I would just set your permalinks like so >

    /%postname%/
    Code (markup):
    And then concentrate on your titles and slugs when making posts/comments

    That way you can target them all (your search terms I mean)
