As mentioned in my post I did a while ago, I have been using the “All In One S.E.O” Wordpress Plugin which lets me customize headings, descriptions and keywords. How this works is that it creates separate titles, descriptions and keywords for the search engines [For Techies: It uses "ALT" parameters on every post] than you might have inside of your actual post.

For example, If I wanted to create a post about sandwiches and titled it, “Grilled Cheese” on my blog, I could use this plugin and create another title for Google which would be, “Amazing Grilled Cheese Sandwhich Recipe“. Amazing huh? :smile:

This is a must for every blogger as you will NOT obtain decent Search Engine hits if you don’t use this plugin. The link for the easy download is right here and installation is as easy as uploading it to your wp-content folder and activating it!

Tune in tommorow for another plugin that you will need to make your blog the BEST it can be.

After logging into my blog this morning to check what had happened over night, I saw that no comments had been typed and were awaiting moderation, but there were 3 supposed spam comments. Curious to see what this Akismet program found worth putting a spam label on them, I clicked on it.

I was shocked and disgusted to see two of my readers comments simply labelled spam! Reference the picture for more information:

This really questions my motives as to why I am using this program to “protect” me from spam. This isn’t the first time it has happened either!

If I’m going to have to do this every time I see some “Spam” in the trash bin, what good is this program? I mean yes, it does get rid of the obvious bot and viral linking abuse, but I don’t want to have to check to be sure…

Have you had any problems with Akismet?

Being a fan of free advertising, I’ve decided to start using entrecard on this website which is located on my sidebar, just under the “category” section. Thus will give bloggers some “Compensation” and “Return” for reading this blog if they simply drop the card on my blog.

So thats a plus to start.. No? Go ahead and drop one!

Next off I will be offering free links to anyone’s blog or website. Simply comment on this post with the website url and title you want… only if your interested (who wouldn’t be?).

Thats another plus…What could come next?

What To Do About Spammers?

I can’t count the amount of spam I received in just one of the months that I started this blog. I just can’t stand how desperate people are to get links to their sites.

Why Use this? The answers quite simple.. [Continues After The Jump...]

Getting on the first result of Google is quite a hard feature to achieve. You must have the exact matching content that a user is looking for. Whether this be in your title or blog post, you do not get to decide what shows up inside of the search engines for your result. Wouldn’t it be great if you could choose the title, description and keywords that Google judges EACH post on to match the viewer with your blog? This is now possible using a thing called the S.E.O All in One Pack. [Continues After The Jump...]
