In this articles I discuss how to manage the permalinks of each post of ensure you make the most of them.

You Now What is Permalinks?

 

That is your answer. Permalinks are the permanent links to a post page. [Blogger] automatically generates a permalink based on the title of your post. Permalinks provide information to the viewer about the kind of content being pointed to.


Permalinks create permanent links to your Blogger post which are indexed by search engines such as Google. Search engines use permalinks to categories posts. Browsers use permalinks to help navigate to your posts. When you hover over a permalink in your browser you can read the post name in the status bar.

The Permalink for this article is like:

Tips for working with Permalinks in Blogger Which other Blogging software such as WordPress allows the user to edit permalinks. Blogger has no such feature. For this reason care needs to be taken when creating titles for your post as the permalink generated from the title can't be changed later. The original permalink assigned at the point that the post is created remains the same no matter how many times you change the title of your post.
                       
                         

Another issue with Blogger is that it takes only the first 35-40 characters of your title to create  the permalink so if you have a longer title you can run into problems. My suggestion is that you design you titles carefully if you want to avoid losing the end characters from your permalink. For instance a long title such as the one below would result in a shortened permalink which would lose the important fact that this post is related to working with Blogger.

Fortunately there is a way around this problem. You will need to publish and then republish as i did with my this post. The method involves creating a shorter title that will adequately summaries the content of your post like (Manage Your Permalink) and then publishing your post. Now go back and change the title to the one you prefer. In this case I changed the title to  "Manage Your Permalink." Now your title can be as long as you like. As you can see mine is longer then 20 characters. The permalinks, however has remained the same even though the title has changed.
