Your WordPress Blog Interaction with SEO

By Daniel Bidoum


WordPress has a fantastic relationship with the search engines and that is why you see WordPress blogs getting a lot more love from Google and the other big search engines. All webmasters know and understand (as do IMers) that building a site on the WordPress content platform gives you an automatic upper hand in terms of beating your competitors at SEO. If you want to make sure that you get the best results possible from your WordPress blog, you still need to make sure that you optimize it as well you can for optimum performance so that you can reap long term rewards in the form of organic search traffic.

Enable Comments:Even though this is very easy for most people to remember, there are still a few who forget it every time. Never turn down reader comments because this will mean more material for your WordPress blog. Because customers created a lot of content explains why social media has turned into a mega hit in today's society. Besides the obvious benefit of building a long term relationship with your readers, by enabling comments you will keep getting new content from time to time. This alone will really please the search engines.

Check for Valid XHTML: Even though the majority of the code errors are minor and aren't really a threat, some of these errors may actually make the search engine spiders to misinterpret your content and give them a wrong impression. Even worse is the fact that some of these coding errors will have lasting implications for your blog. The solution to this problem is to check if the XHTML code on your blog is valid or not. Even though WordPress produces code that is completely valid, these errors could be created because of poorly written themes/plugins. Do Not Overlook the Established Course: After all, a WordPress blog is also a website, keeping this in mind, never forget the solid course of action that SEO has used forever to accelerate the race to the top of the search engine list. Things like using important keywords throughout your posts, creating internal links, bolding your keywords where needed and developing external links to your blog will help you immensely in getting your SEO in place, and give you the needed boost.

Keep All Link Juice: One common characteristic that you find on many WordPress blogs is the number of outgoing links in the sidebar.

SEO doesn't seem all that difficult when you put the great tools WordPress has to offer alongside the work. It's the small stuff that will make or break you no matter how big or small your blog may be at the moment. If you're not getting the skinny on what's really going on then it's often wasted effort. So what are you waiting for? Make now the time when you take action and tomorrow you'll reap the rewards of your hard work.
