 * In order to make URL shorter – does it make sense to change my current setting
   form: /webshop/%product_cat%/ to just /shop?
 * Thank in advance.

 * Hey [@madsenstefan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/madsenstefan/)
 * Unfortunately, your question is outside the scope of the support we provide. 
   Giving **SEO advice**, in most cases, requires a deep analysis of your site to
   provide accurate advice for your specific setup, even for what may seem to be
   a simple question.
 * At Yoast, we want to help people improve their site and to make SEO attainable
   for everyone. So we offer [Yoast Academy](https://yoast.com/academy/) courses
   on all aspects of SEO, several great plugins, and a [comprehensive SEO blog](https://yoast.com/seo-blog/).
 * We understand that not everyone has the interest or time to learn SEO. **Our 
   main advice at this point** would be to check for a local SEO company and see
   if they can help out. If you are using a web development agency, you could ask
   them, as most agencies have at least a basic understanding of SEO as well – the
   good ones do.
