Creating a new page using permalinks in WordPress!

What are permalinks?

Permalinks are permanent links to your website's pages and posts. They are used to create a unique URL for each page or post, making it easier for users to share and find your content.

How to create a new page using permalinks in WordPress:

1. Log in to your WordPress dashboard: Go to your website's URL and log in to your WordPress dashboard using your username and password.
2. Click on "Pages": In the dashboard, click on the "Pages" tab in the left-hand menu.
3. Click on "Add New": Click on the "Add New" button to create a new page.
4. Enter your page title and content: Enter a title for your page and add your content in the text editor.
5. Set your permalink: In the "Permalink" section, enter a custom permalink for your page. This will be the URL that users will use to access your page.
6. Click "Publish": Click the "Publish" button to save your page and make it live.

Tips and Variations:

• Use a descriptive title: Make sure your page title is descriptive and includes relevant keywords to help users find your page.
• Use a custom permalink structure: You can customize your permalink structure by going to Settings > Permalinks and selecting a custom structure.
• Use a slug: A slug is a part of the permalink that comes after the domain name. You can customize your slug by adding a dash (-) or an underscore (_) to separate words.
• Use a category or tag: You can assign your page to a category or tag to help users find related content.
• Use a custom page template: You can assign a custom page template to your page to change its layout and design.

Example:

Let's say you want to create a new page called "About Us" with the permalink "about-us". Here's how you would do it:

1. Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
2. Click on "Pages" and then "Add New".
3. Enter "About Us" as the title and add your content.
4. In the "Permalink" section, enter "about-us" as the custom permalink.
5. Click "Publish" to save and make the page live.

Your new page will now be accessible at yourdomain.com/about-us.
