WordPress Blog Optimization Tip - Optimize Your WordPress Post and Page Titles

0 comments

This is one part of your daily search engine optimization duties: to use your keywords in your title, and in your text. But it has to make sense. You can't just say, "keyword, keyword, keyword, keyword," for your title, and that be the same keyword. Google will frown on that because they call that "keyword stuffing," and no one who does keyword stuffing hangs around in the Google results for very long.

So, you must think of a good title, but use your keywords in it and if you can, use one of them in the first four words and if at all possible, make one of them the last word.

Make your titles interesting for your readers. Remember, if the title doesn't grab attention, your reader won't stay to read what you have to say. AND - that's a reader who probably won't be back. Your post and page titles are your one opportunity to make a good first impression. Don't waste that opportunity.

Capitalize every word of your title except for the small conjunctions. Research has discovered that longer titles are better than short titles, but they still have to grab the reader's attention. Make them convey the essence of what you have to say in an interesting, attention getting manner. Questions are good for titles - they make your reader want to know the answer if it's a question your reader has.

Think carefully as you craft your page and post titles. Grab your reader's attention and he will read your post and likely return to your blog for more.

The Bottom Line: Isn't it your job as a blog owner to take responsibility for properly optimizing your blog?
