Set your permalinks to /%category%/%postname%/. This will set the category name in front of the post URL.

If you want to use the fixed string blog, set the permalinks to /blog/%postname%/.

Thanks,but what can i do if i do not want a post to appear within a category and will this change effect the page permalinks? – asf Nov 23 '12 at 7:30
The second option is not related to categories, and yes, of course it will affect permalinks – that was your question after all. – toscho♦ Nov 23 '12 at 7:34
I think you misunderstood what i was asking let me explain if there is a page called mysite.com/abc. abc is a page not a post.if i make the change as you have suggested will this effect this link. – asf Nov 23 '12 at 7:42
No, this will change only post URLs, not pages. – toscho♦ Nov 23 '12 at 7:53
Thanks it worked – asf Nov 23 '12 at 8:24
