One thing all Bloggers love is getting free Search Engine traffic and increasing your SEO power is important. To all my fellow WordPress bloggers, you may or may not be familiar with the popular SEO plugin, I would would like to introduce All in One SEO Pack by Michael Tobert of Semper Fi Web Design. The all-star WordPress plugin is a personal favorite of mine and I use it all across my network of blogs. But in order to maximise the potential of the plugin, one thing that’s very important is writing good titles and descriptions, in addition to the assigning proper tags.
What’s Considered “Good”?
Maybe that question might of popped up. “Good” could mean many different things but one thing you want to make sure is that it’s good enough to convince people to click on your website rather than other links that are displayed in the search results.
Post vs. Plugin
Good content can be based on many different things such as whether it’s witty, funny, informative or strikes thought, but one thing that you don’t want to mess around with when it comes to your post is playing around with your post titles, content and tags. Google is much smarter than we think and they’re constantly refining their algorithm to fight spam and provide more accurate search results. Writing content that is sometimes too unique or too original can often make you a hit-or-miss in the search engines. Therefore, it’s recommended to stick to your content’s subject and remain as close as possible to it.
When Google crawls the content on your page, it looks for true matches for the keywords the user is searching for minus the fluff. And this is where your chance to shine is; by making the SEO title, tags and description as interesting as possible in efforts to lure readers in. In a world where millions of blogs post the same material, it’s critical that you make your blog stand out. It’s much more easier to play it safe and write your content exactly how it should come across in the post. But remember, you can have fun with the META tags while staying true to what’s published on your page. You want to create a unique and catchy title and description to catch the eyes of potential visitors and make yours stick out from the rest of the search results.
