Before the presence of this blogger permalink edit feature, I must outsmart the words in the post title so that the words inside the permalink are not interrupted and do not lose meaning. I have to write important words first, for visitors and to optimize keywords in permalink. The trick is to write down important words in the title box, publish, then edit the title again. Of course this is inefficient and less satisfactory.
Well, now features custom permalink already present in Blogger. We no longer need to back and forth edit post titles. All it takes is to write the permalink name through the "Permalink" feature in Blogger's post editor. Enterprises to optimize keywords for SEO in the permalink url can be more leverage. Improving SEO blog so much easier.
Steps using Custom Permalink Blogger feature :
1. Access directly via Blogger Dashboard. Blogger Draft is retired and now all test and official features can be accessed directly via Dashboard.
2. Open the post editor (new post, new post), like when you want to write a new post.
3. Notice on "post settings" in the right sidebar, there are some features to customize posts, see "Permalink", click.
4. There will be two options, "automatic URL", and "custom URL". The first is the default, the url adjusts the title. The chances are very big. To customize the permaling, select the second option.
5. After selecting the option "custom URL", type the name of permalink posting as you wish. There is one important thing to note: Do not have spaces. Give a hypen / strip (-) between each word, according to the Blogger permalink type.
example: webmasterseo3-blogspot-custom-permalink
6. Click Done. You can continue making posts or direct "publish"
Review and Features Blogger Custom Permalink
There are a few things I see from this feature, both the advantages and disadvantages:
1. The number of characters in the permalink, after I check, can reach around 45-80 characters (maybe a little more), adjusted to the length of the whole url character. That is, the limit on the number of characters depending on the length of the blog name. The longer the blog name, the less number of characters that can be created in a custom permalink.
2. There is one weakness that is significant enough that in my opinion there is no major change with the existence of this feature. Custom permalink can only be created before a post is published. That is, after a post is published then the permalink can not be edited again. Unlike WordPress where users can edit permalink on any post type (draft or published posts). You must delete the old post, if you want to create a new url version.
3. This custom permalink applies only to filenames. If yesterday anyone asked about changing the permalink structure, then the feature was not (or at least not) existed. The point is, the questioner wants to make url permalink clean, no-frills folders as per the month of the year (Example: 2012/07). This feature is called rewrite url, and both are very different features. This feature involves htaccess, and Blogger does not allow / provide access to it (cPanel). Blogger also does not allow the use of plugins / addon.
Yup, that's it. Although there are many shortcomings, I think this feature is quite helpful in the effort of preparing keywords in permalink without having to edit the post title. Hope this post useful, have a nice blogging, then.. :)
