Questions tagged [permalinks]

A permalink, or permanent link, is a URL that points to a specific blog or forum entry after it has passed from the front page to the archives.

Because a permalink remains unchanged indefinitely, it is less susceptible to link rot. Most modern weblogging and content-syndication software systems support such links. Other types of websites use the term permanent links, but the term permalink is most common within the blogosphere. Permalink is a portmanteau word made from permanent link. Permalinks are often simply stated so as to be human-readable.
