Thinking how to make your blog Search Engine Optimized? It is very easy as there are plugins you can use for blog optimization. All Onpage optimization will be handled by this plugin for your blog. However for Offpage optimization you have to approach different strategies. Here I am saying about Onpage blog optimization for your blog.
Below are the plugins that you must use to make your blog search engine optimized. Install the plugins and activate it.
I am showing you how to use All In One SEO Plugin for maximum benefit.
You can get the All in One SEO plugin here. Install the plugin and activate it. After activating some settings are needed.
Step1: Click on All in One SEO. If you are using Wordpress 2.7.1 or upgrade version it will appear in Settings. After clicking you will get as:
Step2.1: Enter your title for your blog. Remember to put your keyword. This title is very important. This is title of your blog that appears on the browser. This title won’t appear on your blog header. Title is shown by the search engine in result.
Step2.2: Enter your home description. This is the meta description of your blog. This description is shown by search engine in result below title.
Step2.3: By default post title format is %post_title% | %blog_title%. Change it to %post_title%. The reason why I am saying to change is it is not necessary to display your blog title with each post. For example if I hadn’t changed, for this post title would have displayed as “How To Make Your Blog Search Engine Optimized? | Earn Money Online”. Defiantly this is not a good title as it is not related and it is more than 60 character.
Step2.4: Click on Update Option
OK, you have configured All In One SEO plugin. Now time is to use it for proper use. Use it for every a new post. Here I am showing how I used this plugin for this post.
Enter Title, Description and Keywords. Next publish your post. Now search engine will take this contents and display in result.
Setting the Permalink for blog optimization:
Permalink is the link of your each blog post. For each post there will be different different link. For Permalink setting click on Permalinks in Settings.
Default setting of Permlink is as:
http://YourDomain.com/?p=123 -> This is not a search engine friendly link as search engine can’t recognize this link.
It is better if your link contain blog title including the keywords. For this go to Common Settings and choose Custom Structure.
Write Custom Structure as /%category%/%postname%
This will change each link to SEO friendly link as:
http://yourdomain.com/category/post-title.
However you can change the post title in the link before publishing if you want to do so.
GOOGLE XML Sitemap Generator: This plugin will generate a sitemaps.org compatible sitemap of your WordPress blog which is supported by Ask.com, Google, MSN Search and YAHOO.
SEO Friendly Image: This plugin will automatically adds alt and title attributes to all your images. Improves traffic from search results and makes them W3C/xHTML valid as well.
SEO Smart Link: SEO Smart Links provides automatic SEO benefits for your site in addition to custom keyword lists, nofollow and much more.
Chunk URL: This plugin shorten urls in comments so that they won’t break your site.
NoFollow FREE: According to Google’s new policy if your blog contain more nofollow links it may reduce your pagerank. Why not to give your blog commentor a bonus buy giving them a link to their blog? If you want to do so make your blog’s comment link dofollow. This plugin remove the nofollow tag from your blog’s comments with a lot of options customizable, per user type removal, per comments count removal etc.

The aim of this post is to show you how to make your content Search Engine Optimized to get most out of your effort. It is very important part for your online success. This post contains the basics of search engine optimization methods. It is not difficult to implement the basic methods.
Before going to details I would like to say that Keyword Research is the core of Search Engine Optimization. If you don’t have idea about Keyword Research then you can view my post:
OK, now you have done with your keyword research for your selected niche. Next step is to optimized your contents so that search engine can find your contents.
There are two types of optimization methods: Onpage Optimization and Offpage Optimization. Let me start with OnPage optimization.
Onpage optimization basically consists of all of the ranking factors that are located on your webpage. I am going in details steps of these ranking factor.
1.Title: This is the title of your webpage. In html it looks as <Title> </Title>. It is very important to put your main keyword inside title. If you put blank inside title tag you won’t be able to rank in search engine.
To get idea write “download antivirus” in Google and see what’s come up. I got as below:
Download FREE antivirus software - avast! Home Edition - this is the title of the page www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html. To make sure go to the website and see the source view of that page. just right click and click view source.
Google shows the title of any web page in their search result. Try to complete your title withing 60 character.
2.Meta Description: It appears just below the title in the search engine result. Make a proper description for your webpage including all your main keyword. Don’t put more than 5 keywords and try to complete meta description within 160 character. You can see meta description in source view as:
Put your keywords in Meta Keywords also but search engine doesn’t give value for that because of peoples spamming nature.
3.Header Tag: These are the tags that appear as <h1></h1> <h2></h2> <h3></h3>. There are total 6 header tag up to h6. Use it for your webpage properly. Put your page main heading including main keyword in the <h1></h1> tag and sub heading including sub keyword <h2> </h2> tag and continue like this. Whenever search engine crawl your page it crawl the header tags before the text.
4.Bold, Italic Tag: Use <strong></strong> tag to make your text bold and <i></i> for italic. Mind that I did not say to use <b></b> to make bold because search engine give more importance to <strong></strong> tag. Try to make your main keyword bold al least in first paragraph.
5.Image Alt: Alt is an attribute for the img tag. It appears when the browser can’t display image. Here is an example how you have to use :
<img src=”image path” alt=”click To Download Antivirus”> </img>
Always put meaningful content using keyword. Don’t overdo it as search engine may see it as spam.
6.Link: Link are used to link another page or website. It appears in html as
<a href=”download.html”> Download Antivirus</a> Always use good Anchor text while creating link and use your keyword.
<a href=”download.html”> Click Here</a> is NOT a good example of
onpage optimization. It is not an optimized method to use image or flash files while creating hyperlink because spiders for most search engines do not typically crawl links within Flash files or images.
Well, these are the basic Onpage Search Engine Optimization Methods.
Offpage optimization basically consists of all of the ranking factors that are NOT located on your webpage, that the search engines look at when ranking a website.
These include:
For Offpage optimization you need to promote your website. It is not simple as Onpage Optimization. For this you need to opt different methods such as Article Marketing, Forum Posting, Blog Posting, Web2.0 etc. As it is difficult to cover everything in one post I am going to write in different post.
