What Settings to use in All-in-one-SEO-Pack for Wordpress?

Posted on Apr 17, 2008. Written by Syed Balkhi

Yesterday I posted about 5 things that can hurt your Search Engine Ranking Positions of your Website, and in there I advised bloggers to use All in one SEO Pack for Wordpress. But then I decided that it would help my users more if I post what I am doing with Balkhis.

Before you begin reading you should download the All in one SEO Plugin if you haven’t done already.

For those who don’t know what All in one SEO Plugin does for your wordpress this is for you. This plugin optimizes your blog for search engine. It allows you to select how the page titles of your blog will be generated, it gives you an option to have unique meta description, meta keywords, and title for all your posts and pages.

Now once you install this plugin, you will have to go to your admin panel > settings > and you will see a separate tab for all in one seo pack.

Settings for Balkhis looks some thing like this

All in one seo pack for wordpress - recommended settings

I am not using archives so if you are using the archive make sure that in your settings option, you go down and deindex archive pages. I put the title for my blog in tags and search keywords other than that I don’t abuse my title keyword, and neither should you.

The above settings are not set in stone. This is just my way of doing it, and it has been working for me. Therefore if you are starting your blog and get this plugin (which you should) don’t leave the settings as default. Use this one instead.

I’ve only recently started to blog and even more recently (like two days ago) learned about SEO plugin. My new blog just went live last night :) so I want to get this SEO right before making many more posts

I’ve the plugin installed and activated, went with the suggestions you made but when I look at my pages I’m get something like this: http://www.vegetarian-worldwide.com/?p=3. I might not know much about SEO but I can guess this is not search engine friendly!!

The post was saved as ‘High IQ link being vegetarian.’ Any ideas where I might have went wrong.

What I told you will help you change the title, but to change the url

You must follow the steps in the post above. Let me know how that goes.

Problem sorted :)

Looks very much like I’ll be visiting your site on a regular basis.

A bit cheeky of me I know as I have only a few posts at the moment but feel free to visit http://www.vegetarian-worldwide.com and leave a little note. Might encourage others when they get to hear about me!!
