Hello, Been updating my wordpress site for about a week now and did some backlinking for a couple of days now.. my problem is all my website links appears on google search engines is something like this

domain.com/tags
domain.com/category

tried to post the exact url of my post on google but it appears as under category or under a tag and not the exact url. can someone help me about this?

    I can't understand anything from the picture... With so many attempts to hide the information, you didn't give us ENOUGH info to give you an advice... Is this a blog? Wordpress, Blogger, etc.? A PHP site? I am not impressed you didn't get any replies, but I decided to give you an advice at least to EDIT your post!

      Please install Google XML Sitemaps plugin and submit your sitemap to GWT.

      Check your permalink setting and set it correctly as said by dadamson! Give your links some time to get indexed as your site is so young. I found you bought your domain on 21st March.

      Good luck

      You should also install Google Webmaster tools on your website and go to the Search Appearances section, it will show you exactly how your website will appear in search results.

      Keep in mind it can take some time for Google to update its index with your new URL structure.

      @Electrical, i don't know what that happened but i encountered that once but i thought its just because of my internet. any solutions to that? tried to find the word "youtube" on my homepage but i didnt find one.

      @all, thanks for replies. maybe i must wait for some times for Google to Update my site.

        I assume you ignored my reply. No bother.

        Good luck with that waiting for google update thing...

            Edited: I was able to find several articles so maybe that's not problem any more.

            I also got randomly redirected to some awful Justin Bieber video in addition to some weird ad popup. There's definitely something that's broken on your site.

            I tried to Google couple of your post titles, and got a boatload of similar content. Where did you get these articles? You need to get more original or you will be buried under the avalanche of content from more authoritative sites. For example celebrity gossip is really hard niche because the vultures that dominate the business have deep pockets, and the original stories they fabricate are directly posted to their websites.

            You should try to Google any abbreviation first. CMS stands for Content Management System, and you're using WordPress as your CMS.

            You've got Yoast's SEO plugin installed. See that you've got XML sitemaps enabled, and send those to Google's webmaster tools.

            Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
            Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

            What's your excuse?

      Has nothing to do with much of the nonsense discussed here.

      It's a common thing, called breadcrumbs.

      It's a good thing.

      You get more links in the results to your site.

      Whatever CMS you are using probably already has these signals built in.

      Others, without those signals, can still get breadcrumbs.

      Could be a common question, no problem there. But to have "experts" not
      know this.....

        Paul is right, breadcrumbs will get you extra links + keywords (SERP anchor-text CTR). Why would that be a problem?
