Ultimate WordPress SEO Tips

Excellent post!
These are tweaks I haven’t thought of.
Especially the “Page Titles”

Thanks for sharing

Some great tips there

Great stuff. Implimented these on three of my blogs.

Thanks for the tips, there’ some gems there.

Here’s one that I just came up with when reading your title tips and thinking about how keywords in titles have such an impact, let me know what you think…

Prefix the title with a category. Eg this post might be “SEO Tips - The Ultimate WordPress list” or “WordPress - The Ultimate SEO Tips”

What plugin do you use for the topics/tags on your individual posts?

Cheers

Thanks FIntan, that was highly useful, though I’ll probably have to read it again to understand it all!

I’ve found that my Google traffic is always higher on articles that contain good meta tags, so my tip is to use the automatic meta-tag plugin (AutoMeta) which automatically generates Meta Keywords and Technorati Tags.

Thanks a lot for the guide. Very useful and I just did the steps. When I switched H1 and H2 in the CSS and added H4 it took me more than half an hour to find an error of a comma …

Anyway, thanks a lot.

Such wonderful tips. Simple, but great!

I think it’s a bit too late to change my permalinks structure which is a bit of a shame because due to some lack of knowledge I set my pemalinks to be only %postname% and nothing else, and that’s not the best thing to do..
Maybe someday in the future I’ll revamp everything about the site as well as the permalinks structure to be as you suggested.

Thanks!

Hey there! I wonder if you have some advice here. I understand the concept of the …/06/04/name-of-post-here permalink structure. However, I really cannot use that on my site, since I update my (2000) posts frequently with updates, and I update the TIMESTAMP as well, which ends up changing the URL. And I have 100’s of static links to each post, so it’s cruicial that the POST URL doesn’t change.

In that case, what advice can you offer to get better SEO?

I’d like to avoid having to go back and manually changing all my links (that would take over a week and I just got done manually coding everything in my site for the past 2+ weeks), but would you recommend using JUST /%postname%/ ?

But again, the post name does change sometimes..

Thanks for any suggestions… Is there anything beyond WP that will help my SEO?

These are great tips indeed, especially the one on permalink.

Your “if you don’t use your title to link straight to your permalink URL, the page where your post lives, you are stupid to say the least.” may sound “harsh” but true.

It took me less than 5 seconds to decide to implement it. It’s now done. Thanks!

Great tips, my search engine traffic has sucked up to now but I am hoping these changes will make a big difference!

I’m new to wordpress blogger so I found your site very interesting. I have bookmarked it for future visits.

Perry, use %category%/%postname%, unless the main category is removed.

And the post slug doesn’t change if the title changes. Set the post slug to have a few crucial key words, and you won’t have to worry (except about manually doing this for every new entry).

Hey Fintan,

Read your post and really liked the fact you pointed out to people the importance of the permalink structure. I also liked how you pointed out to readers the need to use something like related post plugin as well. This has worked wonders on my blog to show people content that is similar to what they are reading now. It only seems to work on the post title though.. which again points out how important post titles are when writing your blog post.

2 plugins I couldn’t live without are Ultimate Tag Warrior and my SEO plugin I wrote myself. Ultimate Tag Warrior give a get approach to searching for like content on the site, while my SEO plugin will optimize my page/post title tags, meta tag information, and meta links for my RSS feeds for auto discovery.

You can grab a copy of my plugin here:
http://www.marketingop.us/plugin-page/seo-wordpress-plugin/

But you will need Ultimate Tag Warrior installed before hand.

Technically, applying these guidelines makes your pages and content more accessible for your readers, as determined by seasoned web professionals. A positive side effect is that these optimizations makes them more attractive to search engines as well, increasing your chances of being highly relevant for the said topic. A blog with good content with optimized structure for its readers will always have a greater chance at success. · · · · · · · · · · · Posted by markku Filed in Links, Problogging Tools, Traffic Building [...]

Hi all,

It’s a great psot, especially for a ‘new dummy’ to blogs…

few dumb questions -
“If you don’t use your title to link straight to your permalink URL, the page where your post lives, you are stupid to say the least.” - how do i go about doing that?

Can someone explain to me what is and the function of a ‘permalink’, slug and trackback?

Thanks….

Great stuff. I added another step of SEO to a site at Pigeon Forge that pulls a post’s excerpt and uses it as the meta description. I know there’s talk about meta descriptions and keywords not being as effective in search engines these days, but I did it more for the user. A user is more likely to click a link in a search if it sounds interesting based on the title of the link and the description, so using a strong meta description rather than having a search engine “guess” is so much more effective.

Great stuff!

Hey All!! Thanks for this Wkd Article Fintan = ) I am not to sure if or how well they are working but the whole blog looks cleaner and more seo looking which i thinks a good think? Thanks again…

[...] Some other techniques are a little more tricky. For example, try to make your permalinks (permanent links to individual blog entries/articles) static links that end in .html because search engines tend to view these as individual web pages (which they are) instead of semi-permanent web pages or segments within web pages (like forum posts). This can be done with just a little tweaking of your blog software.

Thanks for the pointers Fintan.
I’ve taken on board that Google likes the keyword matches in the url.
I’ve also read from other sources that Google prioritses pages from higher level directories.

Therefore, I’ve opted for a permalink structure like /%postname%-%year%%monthnum%%day%-%post_id%.html that favours the postname first, for optimal keyword matching and user display, with a ‘DNS zone file serial number’ inspired reverse timestamp and a post ID at the end. Including the post ID allegedly helps to speed up the loading and display of the page.

Lastly, my permalink style appears to search engines like a single html file in the root directory of the site.

I’ll let you know how it goes.

Only one thing though, the end where you’ve mentioned headers, doesn’t the W3C insist that headers should be used to reflect the page titles hierarchy. eg h1 could be logo h2 could be archive title h3 would be post title. Just a thought!

Very nice point of view! Respect!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I am offering to help a few more people out in there search engine optimization efforts. For a simple example, I was able to place my last client above mopar within a couple months using a very sought after search term. Feel free to contact me with any questions or more examples.

Hello,
Thanks your for great tips.
I have one questions, how do I arrange the wordpress posts and pages. I mean, what should i post on the index page? can I use the links for summary or should I display the whole posts?
How many posts should be on the index page? (default is 10)

thanks.

Nice tips. Should we concern index page rank? My web main page rank changes from time to time. How can I freeze it when it’s highly ranked.

Hi

“Link to the bloody post!
If you don’t use your title to link straight to your permalink URL, the page where your post lives, you are stupid to say the least.

It’s naturally where users click, and it also is a keyword-rich inward link which should reinforce a good post title, page title and URL.”

hey there . i liked you tips. esp the one about the title.

“Buster Studies…..”

however i can’t find the thing to replace in the theme editor. i use the FRESHY theme on wordpress.
can u help?

Good work… thanks…

Hi Dech,

excellent articel
I’m using /%category%/%postname%/ for my permalinks

for some reason Google has only indexed 3 of currently 29 approx urls on my site. Some that were indexed earlier have disappeared.
I’ve changed themes a few times but have now settled on one and will stick with it.

Any idea why the indexing would be so hit and miss?

cheers
Tony

whoops

Hi “Fintan” not Dech

Great suggestions.

The idea of putting your tags around your tile was so simple yet effective.

I used the following code suggested by Finton Darragh to achieve the title structure you’ll find on my blog: [...]

[...] Fintan Darragh of http://www.dech.co.uk has a great blog post called “Ultimate WordPress SEO Tips” (http://www.dech.co.uk/2005/11/ultimate-WordPress-seo-tips/). Mr. Darragh talks about permalink optimization and says, “The goal: stick more keywords up into the URL and remove the faff which nobody uses, to make the URL search engine and people attractive. Having keywords in your URL is an absolute must, especially when it’s as easy as WordPress makes it.” He also goes on to talk about getting rid of useless tags like the month, day, and year, as well as one important detail: whatever you do stick with the site structure you choose-otherwise you might end up with a lot of useless links to your site. Other tips that Mr. Darragh mentions are optimizing your page titles and your post titles–and installing a few plugins that are useful such as the “Related Posts Plugin” and the “Technorati Tag Generator”.

Thanks for sharing the valuable information-esp. the titles.
SEO can be really rewarding if done right.

I’ll throw a question to everyone if you don’t mind.

I’ve heard some experts say that it is more beneficial if you wait for google to find you, rather than submiting to them.

How beneficial is this?
(i’ve heard it increases page ranking) are there any other reasons or benefits?
