I am new to website scene and this is my first try at putting together a website myself , mostly from just reading and getting some info here and there. My site is only about a month old but i would really appreciate some SEO reviews from some of you guys here who seem to be way ahead of me. I am in process of adding backlinks through directory submissions and social bookmarking sites , and plan to do some article submissions. I know the site has a plainish look but i kind of went for that and will be adding a newspaper headline and page type theme to it before long. Thanks in advance for any reviews and tips Site: www.mafiatoday.com
Here are a couple things. * First of all, your URLs would be better optimized if they built out using the post title. I'm not sure which version of WordPress you have but it's a quick change you can make under settings - permalinks. * Add the All-In-One SEO pack plugin for your blog as well. It will give you the ability to add description and keyword tags. Interesting topic for a blog.
1) As Samsoncs says, optimize your URL so the include the post title. 2) Yes, and SEO plugin too. 3) You are not internally linking. Do it.
Go into the admin panel and look at your permalinks Checkout the options here: codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks Use snippets on the front page, so the whole article doe not show in tow places.
Move your inline style to a .css page. Move your js script to the bottom of the page. Remove your comments from the markup.
