Hello! Can anyone help me with the following question ? From the point of view of SEO is it better to publish the entire post on the home page of a WP blog, or is it better to use the "more" feature and publish only the first paragraph or the first two paragraphs on the home page, and then have a link at the end that says : "more on [post title]", which links to the permalink? I am afraid that if the entire post is published on the home page, then you will have two pages with duplicate content ( home page and permalink ). But on the other hand, for visitors to the blog, it might be better to be able to read the entire post on the home page and not have to follow that link. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! So far I have been publishing only the first or first two paragraphs on the home page, with the link at the bottom ("more on [post title]"), but I am not certain if this is the best way to do it. Thank you very much for your help, Robert
Just show a summary on the homepage and in the category pages. How much is up to you, usually the first paragraph is fine.
Thank you. By the way, do you know how to change the wording of the "more" feature? Right now it says : "More on [post title]" Is there a way to change that wording? Thank you again for the help.
You have to edit it directly in the wordpress backend.... http://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Read_More
