Everything began in the late 90's. I needed to place some news o-n my website. A record. A summary of forthcoming events. I started with simple HTML. One-page, with areas for each and every post. Simple. Then I heard about 'websites' and 'blogging.' Being intelligent, I picked Wordpress, the most used computer software. How clever, I thought. In the event that you get the WYSIWYG editor going, anybody can put up a web site. Very democratic. This encouraged my to post my outermost thoughts; on personal gripes, London, and politics. As a web-master, I watched to determine Google index them. I learned about www.flickr.com/people/rolandfrasier by searching the Internet. 'Here we go', I thought, 'quickly, my jewels of extrospection will participate in the ages.' Except Google did not like my website. It would not index much beyond the leading page. Why, why, why? Replicate content? I set it to place only 1 post per page. No progress. I looked over what Google was indexing. Then I checked out the blog HTML. Soon, all became clear. In sum - Word-press was still copying my material, and - It had no proper META tags, and - There is a whole lot irrelevant HTML, and - The format obscured the content. I'd an instant search o-n Google to get search engine optimisation guidelines. Site Preview includes further about why to think over it. There's a plugin 'head-meta description' ( http://guff.szub.net/plugins/ ). But I did not use that, oh no. If you are interested in English, you will certainly hate to research about tell us what you think. For whatever reason, I got the notion that a comprehensive style would be the ticket. I tried modifying an existing one myself. Better, although not perfect. Google was starting to catalog more pages, however they all had exactly the same title. My missives to an uncaring world were being overlooked. So I got another person to do one, based on my standards, which were - Grab a META 'concept' from your article 'title'; - Grab a META 'information' from the website 'excerpts'; - Put a ROBOTS 'noindex' draw in non-content pages. But that wasn't enough. For best SEO results you should change Word-press brutally. You have to be _mean_ to it. You have to _man_ enough. I did so a little of research and developed to following methods. WARNING They're intense. Making significant changes to-your URLs may influence them, In the event that you already have great ranks. Within my case - Moving my weblog http://www.ttblog.co.uk to the root web service, - MOD_REWRITING its URLs, and - Removing a 301 direct, ... caused my PageRank to go to 0. BUT, page indexing was untouched. This was temporary, as Google saw it as 'suspect' conduct. My site had been radically changed by me. Here are the methods, for true _men_, who is able to look in the face of web death and laugh 1. Stimulate permalinks when you go to 'Options/Permalinks.' You might have allow Apache MOD_REWRITE on your own website bill. 1a. Limit the rule to just-the postname variable. Do not bother with the date codes. This keeps your URLs quick. 2. Position your website in the uppermost directory possible. Learn new information about my blog by visiting our wonderful URL. http://www.ttblog.co.uk surpasses http://www.ttblog.co.uk/wordpress/ So a normal post would appear to be http://www.ttblog.co.uk/Im-hard-as-nails-me/ As opposed to http://www.ttblog.co.uk/wordpress/2006/08/03/Im-hard-as-nails-me/ 3. Then install an SEO'd theme. My blog posts are now found beautifully. The Google 'site:' command returns all my threads, and little else. For my next challenge, I undertake Windows XP, and turn it into an os..
