Get Top Search Engine Rankings With WordPress SEO Plugins
Self-hosted WordPress blogs are probably the fastest way to get to the top of the natural search engine listings. There are literally thousands of WordPress plugins available but here I will discuss just a few that help with SEO and ultimately top search engine rankings.
The main WordPress plugin that really helps with SEO and search engine rankings is All in One SEO Pack This plugin does several very important things. The latest version of this plugin has options for adding your WordPress blogs home title, description and keywords. The most advantageous option for SEO is the Rewrite Titles option. This option will display the more search engine friendly title of your post before the name of your blog in the title tag. Helping the keywords in your post title getting picked up first by the search engines.
The other WordPress plugin that helps with search engine rankings is Google (XML) Sitemaps. Installing this plugin will build a sitemap for you WordPress blog and automatically notify Google of any updates. There is also an option to include Yahoo with the inclusion of a Yahoo application ID.
Using the keyword rich title of your post in the URL will also help with SEO and search engine rankings. This can be done using a custom Permalink structure. Read more about custom Permalinks here: WordPress Custom Permalink Structure
These plugins and options as well as good keyword rich titles and of course good original content all contribute to top search engine rankings. Continued use of these tactics will get you in the top of of the search engines in no time. Don’t believe me? check this Google search for WordPress Guides. This site, running on WordPress, is on the first page of Google for the term WordPress Guides in under a month. It doesn’t even have a page rank as of the post it is so new.
