Another wordpress question... What are some of best SEO techniques for a wordpress blog? Since this is a bit different than a traditional site, what needs to be done? ALso, what does wordpress do for you? Thanks in advance!
Well wordpress makes it easy to manage the site and if you don't have any programming experience that is a good thing. As for SEO, look for the Ultimate Tag Warrior Plugin, the Google Sitemaps plugin, and get a Technorati Tag plugin. That's a good start.
