It all started in the late 90's. I needed to put some news on my internet site. A record. A list of forthcoming events. I began with basic HTML. One-page, with parts for every article. Basic. Then I learned about 'blogs' and 'blogging.' Being smart, I picked Wordpress, the most used pc software. How clever, I thought. Should you have the WYSIWYG editor going, anyone could put up a web site. Very democratic. This encouraged my to create my outermost thoughts; on London, politics, and personal gripes. As a web-master, I watched to see Google index them. 'Here we go', I thought, 'quickly, my treasures of extrospection will fit in with the ages.' Except Google didn't like my website. It would maybe not index much beyond the leading page. Why, why, why? Repeat material? I set it to place only 1 post per-page. No improvement. I looked at what Google was indexing. Then I looked at the blog HTML. Dig up more on our affiliated paper - Click this website http://www.surfline.com/company/bios/index.cfm. Quickly, all became clear. In sum - Wordpress was however duplicating my material, and - It had no proper META-TAGS, and - There was a lot irrelevant HTML, and - the content was obscured by The layout. I'd a fast search o-n Google to locate search engine optimization recommendations. There's a plugin 'head-meta information' ( http://guff.szub.net/plugins/ ). But I did not use that, oh no. For some reason, I got the notion that a comprehensive style will be the ticket. I tried changing an existing one myself. Better, although not perfect. Google was just starting to catalog more pages, however they all had the same title. My missives to an uncaring world were being overlooked. So I got another person to complete one, centered on my conditions, which were - Grab a META 'title' in the blog post 'title'; - Grab a META 'information' from the blog 'excerpts'; - Put a ROBOTS 'noindex' label in non-content pages. But that was not enough. For best SEO results you have to manage Wordpress extremely. You have to be _mean_ to it. You've to _man_ enough. I did a bit of research and came up with to following methods. WARNING They're severe. In the event that you already have good rankings, making radical changes for your URLs may possibly affect them. In my case - Moving my blog http://www.ttblog.co.uk to the root web directory, - MOD_REWRITING its URLs, and - Removing a 30-1 redirect, ... caused my PageRank to go to 0. BUT, page indexing was unaffected. Click here www.surfline.com/company/bios/index.cfm to study the inner workings of this activity. This was temporary, as Google saw it as 'suspect' behaviour.

Listed here are the guidelines, for real _men_, who will try the face of web death and laugh 1. Activate permalinks by visiting 'Options/Permalinks.' You may have to enable Apache MOD_REWRITE on your website account. 1a. Shorten the permalinks code to just-the variable. Do not work with the date codes. This keeps your URLs small. 2. Place your site in the directory possible. http://www.ttblog.co.uk is better than http://www.ttblog.co.uk/wordpress/ Therefore a typical post would look like http://www.ttblog.co.uk/Im-hard-as-nails-me/ Instead of http://www.ttblog.co.uk/wordpress/2006/08/03/Im-hard-as-nails-me/ 3. Then install an SEO'd theme. My websites are now being indexed beautifully. The Google 'site:' command returns all my posts, and little else. For my next challenge, I change it into an operating-system, and undertake Windows XP..
