Category or Date in URL

Latsyrc · 11-03-2011, 09:07 AM

I know there is some debate about which is better, but which do you prefer and why? I am asking of course from an SEO perspective. Do you prefer using the category/post name in the URL or the month/year/post name in URL?

Often i used post name because it look good and attractive if some enter in website and read our post properly.

It's better to use the category not only from a SEO perspective but it looks better in the visitors eyes too...

I'd use Postname. it's a custom setting

i think it's /%postname%/

Always always always just use the post name.

I don't know, I have many blog sites that are doing well. Could you elaborate? Or is it just Panda?

All of them are using postnames for the URL also BTW.
