Today we’re happy to introduce another feature that enables you to more effectively customize your search preferences - custom permalinks.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><b id="internal-source-marker_0.7867016331292689" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When you write a post, Blogger automatically generates a permalink based on the title of the post. Until now, blog authors have had no control of the permalink. Custom permalinks give you more control of your blog and posts. These new custom links also provide readers with more information about your post when scanning search results.</span></b><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you prefer to use a custom permalink, you can do so via the “Permalink” option in the Post Settings box. </span></b><br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ5WxLSQIuuGeOvQQUvtm00mRiSZ9aNJnGCS4oSSqdWglnA8j_RFSPRLdTvUq7cuPvoL0chKb1wYDlj-qFfNR8_YX_E3Irf2UzXFSB4vom1mLEdw_WCuImK9S_itI3s0Z5I_M0nA/s800/permalink.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ5WxLSQIuuGeOvQQUvtm00mRiSZ9aNJnGCS4oSSqdWglnA8j_RFSPRLdTvUq7cuPvoL0chKb1wYDlj-qFfNR8_YX_E3Irf2UzXFSB4vom1mLEdw_WCuImK9S_itI3s0Z5I_M0nA/s800/permalink.jpg" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To create your own URL for a specific post, simply select “Custom URL”, and enter your new URL in the field below.
