I agree with Temi. You look more like an SEO Geek now

Short URL's meaning things like example.com/?cat=6 ?

That's because you have the default setting and not pretty permalinks set up.

Go to your Setting>Permalinks then type in /%category%/%postname% (if thats how you want it to be structured).

Set your .htaccess file permissions (CMOD) to 777, then back in your Wordpress click "Update".

WP will automatically rewrite your links. After it has done that go back to your .htaccess file and change the permissions back to something more secure like 655 I think it is or 665.

Reload your WP page and you should see something like this at the bottom....

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

Or, install All In One SEO Pack. I think that does it for you but I'm sure as I done the permalinks before I installed SEO Pack.
