Hi, i'm not sure if this has been posted before but i was looking for an SEO plugin for my wordpress blog. The main reason is because i'm releasing one of my open source projects soon and i want to let as much people know about it before i'm going to release it. Thanks, Happy 2008!
basically u need to edit your permalinks to some what more search engine friendly than that crappy ?/ symbols and sitemap , all in one seo etc are good ones..
I use the All In One SEO Pack and Category Base Killer. I also use a keyword friendly URL structure, which can be managed under Options > Permalinks.
Thanks for mentioning the category bas killer. i've been wondering how the heck people have their wordpress blog urls without the category base. downloaded it straight away.
I go with a custom one. /%category%/%postname%/ Code (markup): Then use Category Base Killer to strip /category/ from the URL string.
how if i use /%postname%/ Code (markup): directly without use Category Base Killer which one more friendly for SEO
The former. Because if you use just the postname, WordPress will still add /category/ to the URL string on some of the links. Basically, it reads some links as yourblog.com/category-name/post-name/ and other links as yourblog.com/category/category-name/post-name/ Category Base Killer literally removes /category from the URL strings of those links that would have "/category" added to them. Of course, you can just use the postname if you want, but I still strongly suggest you use CBK (Category Base Killer) to prevent WordPress from adding /category to the link and causing duplicate content issues.
There's no underscore in my username - it's the same as my given name (a space between my first and last names).
