msg:4372196 | 6:32 am on Oct 8, 2011 (gmt 0) | Hello, I have an ecommerce site and am setting up Wordpress as my CMS. I plan to have on there: buying guides, quick tips, news, new product announcements, and other non article type content (with the new cms features available). I am stuck between naming the subdirectory. ( I need to have a subdirectory name due to other software on the site). I've narrowed my options to: site.com/blog/%post-name% site.com/content/%post-name% wondering if anyone has thought about this, and is it better to stick to naming it 'blog' for seo purposes. or is content the way to go now that wordpress is more of a cms. Thanks!

If you want to make a section where you can publish tips, news and articles you can choose a name as per your wish. It may be a blog, news, articles, tipsandguide, etc. regards zabalex
