Best SEO practices for Yoast and Wordpress?

Hey guys,

I wanted to know what are the best SEO practices for Yoast and Wordpress. For example, urls should be category/blogpost-name or just /blogpost-name

Most people use xxxx.com/post-name format, so you can choose this permlink format on the dashboard of your wordpress.

WP beginner site has a ton of tutorials, very useful, check more step by step guides there. It got a yoast seo plugin article.

I also prefer shorter urls, not a big fan of /category or /tag (and then post) urls. Unless you have a TON of content on your sites with thousands of articles it's better to keep it short and sweet.

Yeah that's what I've been used to.

I think I will go with subcategory/post-name because I am planning to have a TON of content

Also how to have breadcumbs shown instead of urls in the SERP?

Also, is keyword accumulative? Let's say there's 2 keywords, photos and beautiful (both being different keywords) will using beautiful photos as keyword target three variations as: photos, beautiful and beautiful photos?

Keep URLs short, simple and relevant

Can be, but IMO, it's always better to use long-tail keywords. -Micah
