Tips to improve your WordPress SEO

There are two aspects to improve your WordPress SEO. The first is the configuration of WordPress, with adjustments made and plugins WordPress SEO for maximum SEO benefit of the platform. The second is to ensure that the content is well optimized for search engines to understand that it is very relevant to the keywords chosen, this of course is the same for any other site.

Configuration

SEO of a facility WordPress standard can be improved by making a few tweaks. In most cases the easiest way to do this is by installing WordPress plugins SEO that make it easy to make changes without having to edit any code. However, major changes are easily made first in WordPress itself:

Go to Settings - Permalinks and change the "Common Settings" to custom build = /%% postname. This will put the title of the post / page in the URL instead default numbers, so the URL includes the keyword.

Go to Settings - General and make sure that the site address is set to www included or excluded as desired (see Canonical URL below). It is also worth setting this in Google Webmaster Tools. Want to avoid the use of both, as can be seen as content doubled and you could get backlinks for both diluting the benefit of link building.

After installing the "All in One SEO Pack" WordPress SEO Plugin. This is the best known SEO WordPress Plugin and for good reason. It helps your WordPress SEO in many ways, so we include:

The ability to add a meta description and keywords of the site and each page / post - it is best to write the description manually instead of allowing it to be automatically generated by the plug-in or in fact, the search engines.
Control the format of the various titles. I prefer to have only the title page showing the search engines. You can add keywords, but this is best left alone.
Option to avoid indexing category and the other duplicate content. The structure of WordPress means that there is always the duplicate content, since every message is duplicated by categories, tags, date and author.
Control of URLs. Ensure that the canonical URL is marked as this avoids duplicate URLs on the same page.

You can also add plugins WordPress SEO, for example:

Shorten your ULRs by eliminating unnecessary words
Cache pages / posts to speed up loading page
No-Follow the external links
Internal links so Automatic
To make commenting easier to use

Content Optimization

While help maximize the previous WordPress SEO is important to emphasize that the most important task is to ensure that the content is well optimized for search engines, for example:

Use the keyword in the title, header tags, first and last sentences and with a reasonable density throughout the text.
Ensuring that each page / post includes a picture and use the keyword as the ALT text.
Having links to other pages on the site.
After external (non-tracking) links to authority sites.

One way to check this is to use a WordPress plugin that analyzes the content SEO and says he wants to have to be changed.
