   It is rare that a post responds in a consolidated way to so many questions. Yours does and thank you for that. I have a question though in regards to a blogsite structure. Mine has one MOVIE tab and sub-tabs for each movie treatment that I write, one MOVIE SCRIPT category for all that posts about the process of writing those treatments or scripts and multiple tags for each posts, some common to multiple posts. The posts (progressive blog log wise) are strictly related to the writing challenges of each treatment or script. I believe that this structure is user friendly as you rightfully label one sample as such.
   Question: How bad or good is my structure though for the SEO?
   Thank you,

   Hi, This post has good information but My concern is: how many words we should use in tags. As you gave example of 1 word like “actor” as a tag. But what if I use: “hollywood actor” “american pop singer”

   Please give advise.

    My research as to whether or not WP has a limit to the number of categories has not helped – many people have asked the question in different forums, with no one providing a definitive answer. I’ve now encountered a situation where it seems that WP won’t allow me to add a post to any more categories, although it doesn’t seem to be limiting the actual number of categories that I can have.

    Do you have any suggestions for the best way to handle what I’m trying to do, which is to have the following type of category list for all of the U.S.:

    State Name (Parent)
    City (child)
    City (child)
    City (child)
    State Name (Parent)
    City (child)
    City (child)
    City (child)
    etc.etc.

    As I’m sure you can imagine there will be a LOT of categories with one created for every town and city in every state in the U.S.

    However, I don’t see a better way to do what I need, and “business directory” plugins and themes that I have looked at so far don’t seem to provide a suitable solution either.

    Awesome post, really useful – i’ve never considered duplication of content through categories and tags.
    Our site is a male grooming, lifestyle and men’s fashion blog. Because these subjects are quite broad we have sub categories too. For example, skincare within male grooming.
    When we upload skincare articles we add them into skincare and male grooming – does this affect our SEO? Should I put one of them as non index? Or leave it as it is?
    If we were to be more specific in regards to skincare, for example acne, should i add this as a sub cat or a tag? FYI, we use acne as a drop down within our skincare menu but using it as a tag shows “tag” in the URL when once clicked on acne.
    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    1. my parent category an the sub category are showing the same post, is there a matter of duplicate content?
    2. Also my categories represent a similar class of objects, so the sub categories of most of them are same, again should i worry about duplicate content?
    Please give me some advice on the noindex and nofollow thing.

      Hello, thank you for the great article. Really comprehensible.
      I have the same question as Lezly. The post will have to be added to both Category & Sub-Cat so the user could either see all posts under Category, or if they wish only see the specific posts of Sub-Cat. Is that correct?
      I don’t know about duplicate content & google, from your article it sounds like i have to do some research.
      Also, if tags are not used via the search for people to find the article in the blog then i would not use any… would that be a mistake search-wise?
      Many thanks.

    Hi … a great article for a beginner like me! I have a question. My blog is about places I have traveled. Every place will be assigned a destination category and an interest (inspiration) category. Here are my categories (every post will be assigned two categories) The structure looks like this
    Cat 1:Destination
    Sub Cat 1: Africa
    Sub Sub Cat 1: Kenya
    Sub Sub Cat 2: South Africa
    Sub Cat2: United States
    Sub Sub Cat 1: Florida
    Sub Sub Cat 2: New York
    Cat 2: Inspiration
    Sub Cat 1: Safari
    Sub Cat 2: Beach and Sun
    My questions emphasizes mainly on the impact of Archive pages and SEO. So here is my question: in WordPress when I assign a category for a blog about a safari in Africa — would the categories be (1) Kenya and Safari or (2) Destination, Africa, Kenya, Inspiration, Safari?
    I am trying to limit myself to two categories for every post.

    You change the category slug by editing a single category. Go to Posts > Categories select the category you want to edit and then change its slug. This slug will then be used in the URL. You categories title and slug can be different.

Does it add hyphen in between automatically? Another live example on your site that I came across with the way you have added the category name “WORDPRESS PLUGINS” while on the URL it shows only “plugins”, how did you do that!

    Question about the site structure.

    Let’s say my site is cookies.com (which isn’t – I just try to layout a simple example)

    Let’s further say, I build the following categories:

    – Sugar Free Cookies

    – Gluten Free Cookies

    – Vegan Cookies

    As we can see, every category has the word “cookies” in it. If I understood the concept right, I should have the following perm structure:

    cookies.com/sugar-free-cookies/

    cookies.com/gluten-free-cookies/

    cookies.com/vegan-cookies/

    Question:

    Since I do have the word cookies already as my root domain… wouldn’t it be sufficient enough to have the following word structure only:

    cookies.com/sugar-free/

    cookies.com/gluten-free/

    cookies.com/vegan/

    Good idea ? Or bad idea ?

    Thank you so much for any little help,

    Really interesting article! It helped me out on the right track but I do have a question though

    Currently I am creating a wordpress website. I allready developped this website
    myself in asp.net, but I no langer have the time to keep up developping it, so I am choosing WordPress to be my new platform.
    My begist issue is how to categorize everything. And I hope some-one can help me out.
    I have a lot of content which is related to each other. Here is how my content is related:

    Breeds ->
    Breed A ->Info about the breed
    ->Dog Sellers
    ->Pictures
    ->Breeding-group

    Breed B ->Info about the breed
    ->Dog Sellers
    ->Pictures
    ->Breeding-group

    Illnes -> All kind of diseases from which a lot of diseases can be related to a specific breed (So I think tags?)
    Training -> All sorts of training abilities which can be breed related (So I think tags?)

    My breeds are about 250. So here is where my concern is. How do I have to categorize this? Just as I mentioned above? My main concern is that I have to put in a lot of sub-categories.

    (If you take a look at my website as it is now maybe you can understand my concern about how to categorize everything.

    If you use link rel=’canonical’, you don’t have to worry about any duplicate content penalty. That meta tag tells Google to use that as the official URL for the page, and to ignore any other URLs that point to it. Canonical URLs have been part of the standard WordPress default themes for years, I think.

    Hi,

    Thanks for an interesting and easy readable article!

    I am very new to WP, SEO, so excuse my questions if they are a bit simple, but:

    1) What is the link between Categories, Sub-categories, Tags (C,SC,T) and simple ‘keyword-search’ on the website ?

    2) And regarding the line before the last paragraph: “The goal is always to make the site as user friendly as possible…” Who is my user?: Readers e.g. privat induviduals who will look for C, SC,T, to reach their point of interest fast and effectively, Marketers e.g. people who want to place ads vis-a-vis C, SC, or T, or Search Engines who wants to match input search with output (also) by way off C,SC, and T? I guess the user point of view will influence how you structure and organize your contents.

    3) Are there strategies for organizing for commercial vs private engagement.

    With further thought, I guess “Tags” equals “Topic or Subject” and I guess marketers will advertise towards “Topics/Subjects” rather than keywords found through keyword-search mostly relevant for subjective versus generic advertisement. This still, however, requires that you strategize your C,CS, and T, intelligently and efficiently.

    Perhaps we can continue the discussion a bit further?

    Thanks.

    Thanks! Very helpful. I was and still am concerned about the duplicate content issue and am probably going to stick with one category for each article I write while having multiple tags. I think SEO-wise this is the best strategy. Google has been very aggressive about duplicate content and I have been personally penalized for duplicate content on other sites.

    Single Category / Multiple Tags. I feel in my gut that this is the way to go.
