Earlier, we wrote how to organize the Categories by hierarchy in WordPress, one of the factors to get Sitelinks from Google earlier. Today, we will discuss about Search Engine Optimization (SEO)of Categories in WordPress, if you optimize rightly, Google will give direct link to categories, in addition to page results for some categories.
Good content, well organized category hierarchy, Search Engine Optimization of Categories will give Sitelinks to categories and that might be a reason to get multiple links for one domain for a single search.
Search Engine Optimization of the categories by navigation
We wrote in the (linked above) earlier post how to organize categories nicely in the navigation. We will not go in to deep in this post. Just to mention the important points:
- For optimum Search Engine Optimization of Categories, the navigation must have a HTML backbone, you can use jQuerry and CSS to decorate.
- Must have a scientific reasoning of the arrangement. For example, if we put SEO under Apple main menu, it will be meaningless.

Whenever I am try to search my post contents in google. Its display only Post URL and Home Page URL (Including that post). How can i display categories URL also in google search results. Please Help Me..
The URL that you have used to post the comment here, shows a Blogger blog.
Blogger blog actually does not have any category, but Labels. Labels are somewhat equivalent to Tags in WordPress. If you are saying about that website, then you need more on site linkings towards the urls of the labels you want to highlight as well as valuable and very relevant backlinks towards the url of the labels.
For WordPress, Categories might not show in SERP if there is any conflict in the settings in the Theme’s SEO settings (if any) and SEO plugin (both should be without nofollow), if they are roboted out (should be allowed), lack of the above linking points PLUS, most importantly, if Google thinks they are not important at all.
Interesting blog post. A few things i would like to bring up is that personal computer
memory must be purchased when your computer can no
longer cope with whatever you do with it. One can add two good old ram
boards of 1GB each, for example, but not certainly one of 1GB and one having 2GB.
One should make sure the company’s documentation for the PC to make sure what type of ram is required.
