			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s a real nice tool that has the options of the All-in-One SEO Pack but includes a lot more <strong>advanced SEO</strong> options. It&#8217;s called WP SEO Sniper.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s some great features this <strong>seo plugin</strong> has -</p>
<p>* Give your important content more PageRank by cutting out redundant pages.<br />
* Preserves more PageRank to be shared amongst your lower level content pages.<br />
* Make your entry in the search engines stand out and entice more clicks.<br />
* Push more PageRank down to your individual posts.<br />
* Preserve more PageRank to be shared amongst your posts.<br />
* Preserve more PageRank to be shared amongst your pages.<br />
* Since tags are mostly for human benefit, the value of having tag archives in the search engine index is debatable.<br />
* <strong>Preserve more PageRank</strong> to go to your valuable content.<br />
* Give your blog a fully SEO’d footer menu with selective nofollows on the links.<br />
* Include your Google code without having to edit your theme files.<br />
* Precisely control how PageRank flows to a page.<br />
* Keep unimportant content out of the search engine index completely.<br />
* Make your entry in the search engines stand out and entice more clicks.<br />
* Keep unimportant pages out of the list of pages. Many themes use the page list to build a main top menu. Control which pages appear in that important menu.<br />
* Individually style a particular post or page if you wish to do so.<br />
* Send request for, and the original PageRank, from a redundant post or page to a new post or page.<br />
* Implement SEO Fast Start Tiered Pairing or Circular Navigation techniques on your posts and pages to give each post or page as much PageRank as possible.</p>
<p>It installs just like any other plugin and has it&#8217;s own section in the wordpress admin for all the options. Check it out and decide for yourself.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2> Page Titles.</h2>
<p>Go into <u>header.php</u> and replace the &lt;title&gt; whatever is  in the title tag &lt;/title&gt; with:</p>
<p><code>&lt;title&gt;&lt;?php if (is_home()) {bloginfo('name') ;}  else { wp_title(' ');} ?&gt;&lt;/title&gt;</code></p>
<p>What this does is for the home page, it uses the blog’s title for the Title tag and for everything else, it will use the title of the blog post or page for the Title tag.</p>
<p>If you really want your blog name in all your posts, use  this:</p>
<p><code>&lt;title&gt;&lt;?php wp_title(''); ?&gt;&lt;?php if(wp_title('', false)) { ?&gt; | &lt;?php } ?&gt;&lt;?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?&gt;&lt;/title&gt;</code></p>
<p>Only time I use this is when I think people will be  searching for my blog or my whole blog name is all keywords;)</p>
<p>You can also skip this if you decide to use the great  NetConcepts <a href="http://www.netconcepts.com/seo-title-tag-plugin/" target="_blank">Title Tag Plugin</a></p>
<h2>Header Tags</h2>
<h3><strong>Blog title header</strong></h3>
<p>Also in <u>header.php</u>, but could also be in <u>index.php</u> (if it’s  in <u>index.php</u>, you will need to change <u>home.php</u>)</p>
<p>Look for the <strong>h1 tag</strong>, it’s usually between &lt;div  id=”header”&gt; &lt;/div&gt;.</p>
<p>Replace the &lt;h1&gt;whatever is in the h1 tag &lt;/h1&gt;  with:</p>
<p><code>&lt;?php<br />
if(is_single() || is_page() || is_archive()){<br />
?&gt;<br />
&lt;div id="page_header"&gt;&lt;a href="&lt;?php bloginfo('url'); ?&gt;"&gt;&lt;?php bloginfo('name'); ?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;<br />
&lt;?php<br />
} else<br />
{ ?&gt;&lt;h1&gt;&lt;a href="&lt;?php bloginfo('url');  ?&gt;"&gt;&lt;?php bloginfo('name'); ?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;<br />
&lt;?php } ?&gt;</code></p>
<p>When it’s on single, page, or archive, it will use  <strong>&lt;div id=”page_header”&gt;</strong>. Any other time such as the front page, it will use the  default h1 tag. You ALWAYS <strong>use only one h1 tag</strong> and put your most important keywords at the start of the &lt;h1&gt;, but don’t do this religiously though or google will think you’re spamming. Make sure there <strong>isn’t any higher numbered headers  before the h1 tag</strong>.</p>
<p>Now you’ll need to go into your css file, it’s usually (95%)  style.css.</p>
<p>Find occurrences of h1 and add on <strong>#page_header</strong></p>
<p>Using Beach House’s css file. The first occureance of h1  is</p>
<p><code>#header h1<br />
font-size: 22px;<br />
text-align: right;<br />
padding-right: 40px;<br />
padding-top: 60px;<br />
}</code></p>
<p>Your want to add #page_header like this:</p>
<p><code>#header h1, <strong>#header #page_header</strong>{<br />
font-size: 22px;<br />
text-align: right;<br />
padding-right: 40px;<br />
padding-top: 60px;<br />
}</code></p>
<p>Since the above h1 was for the id header, you want to keep  page_header in the same id. The next h1 tag in Beach House is</p>
<p><code>h1, h2, h3 {<br />
font-family:  'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;<br />
font-weight:  bold;<br />
}</code></p>
<p>With addition, it would be:</p>
<p><code>h1, h2, h3, <strong>#page_header </strong>{<br />
font-family:  ‘Trebuchet MS’, ‘Lucida Grande’, Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;<br />
font-weight:  bold;<br />
}</code></p>
<p>Go and find all h1 tags and add the #page_header &lt;div&gt; id. Some of the h1 tags you won’t need to add the #page_header if they’re under another class like comments/sidebar/etc. You’ll just have to do trial/error to see which one you need to do, but if you’re good at css, it shouldn’t take you long, but if you don’t know anything about css and have problems with a theme you will probably need some help.</p>
<h3>Single/Page Headers</h3>
<p>The reason we set the blog header for the <u>page.php</u> and <u>single.php</u> with a &lt;div&gt;is so we can use the h1 tag for the blog post/page title.</p>
<p>Go to <u>single.php</u> (if there isn’t a <u>single.php</u>, just save as  <u>index.php</u> as <u>single.php</u>).</p>
<p>Find the header tag that houses the blog post title (usually  &lt;h2&gt; and has <strong>&lt;?php the_title(); ?&gt;</strong>) and change the header to <strong>&lt;h1  id=”single_header”&gt;</strong> (don’t forget to close it with &lt;/h1&gt;)</p>
<p>For example with our theme example:</p>
<p><code>&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="&lt;?php echo get_permalink() ?&gt;" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: &lt;?php the_title(); ?&gt;"&gt;&lt;?php the_title(); ?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;</code></p>
<p>to</p>
<p><code>&lt;h1 id="single_header"&gt;&lt;a href="&lt;?php echo get_permalink() ?&gt;" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: &lt;?php the_title(); ?&gt;"&gt;&lt;?php the_title(); ?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;</code></p>
<p>Now we’ll need to go into the css file. Find all the &lt;h2&gt; and  add on <strong>h1#single_header</strong> like how we did the blog title above.</p>
<p>So for the first occurrence of h2 that needs #single_header  in the css for our example</p>
<p><code>h2 {<br />
font-size: 1.6em;<br />
}</code></p>
<p>to this</p>
<p><code>h2, h1#single_header</code></p>
<p>{<br />
font-size: 1.6em;<br />
}</p>
<h3>Sidebars</h3>
<p>Most of the sidebars in templates use &lt;h2&gt; for the headers for each sidebar item, we don’t want to use &lt;h2&gt; for those because there is no SEO value for highlighting Meta, Blogroll, Pages, Archives, Categories, and etc. Instead we want to put them in &lt;div&gt; instead.</p>
<p>For our example, we replace all &lt;h2&gt; with &lt;div  class=”sidebar_header”&gt;, don’t forget to replace the closing tags!</p>
<p>Go into the css file to see if there a #sidebar id in there, most of them, all you really need to do is change the h2 out with a <strong>div.sidebar_header</strong></p>
<p>Change:</p>
<p><code> #sidebar h2{<br />
font-family:  'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Sans-Serif;<br />
font-size:  1.2em;<br />
}</code><br />
To:</p>
<p><code>#sidebar .sidebar_header {<br />
font-family:  'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Sans-Serif;<br />
font-size:  1.2em;<br />
}</code></p>
<p>Find reset of the h2 that needs to be changed.</p>
<h3>Sidebar Widgets</h3>
<p>You’ll also need to switch out the &lt;h2&gt; out of the  function file. Open up <u>functions.php</u>.</p>
<p>For our example, change</p>
<p><code>if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )<br />
register_sidebars(1);</code></p>
<p>to</p>
<p><code>if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )<br />
register_sidebar(array(<br />
'before_widget'  =&gt; '&lt;li&gt;',<br />
'after_widget'  =&gt; '&lt;/li&gt;',<br />
before_title' =&gt;  '&lt;div class="sidebar_header"&gt;',<br />
'after_title'  =&gt; '&lt;/div&gt;',<br />
));</code></p>
<p>Now every widget item title will have <strong>&lt;div  class=”sidebar_header”</strong>&gt; instead of the default &lt;h2&gt;</p>
<h3>Comment/Respond Headers</h3>
<p>Most of the time, the comment and respond titles use  &lt;h2&gt; or some header. We want to change those to &lt;div&gt;</p>
<p>Those items are usually housed in <u>comments.php</u>, but sometime  they’re also in <u>single.php</u>. You won’t need to add any extra ids on to them  because they are already there, so just change h2 to div.</p>
<p>Using our example template, the first item to change is</p>
<p><code>h1, h2, h3, #page_header{<br />
font-family:  'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;<br />
font-weight:  bold;<br />
} </code></p>
<p>Add <strong>div#comments</strong>, <strong>div#respond</strong> so it looks like this:</p>
<p><code>h1, h2, h3, #page_header, div#comments, div#respond {<br />
font-family:  'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;<br />
font-weight:  bold;<br />
}</code></p>
<p><u>Go find all other instances and add or change the h2</u></p>
<h3>Other Headers</h3>
<p>Some templates use headers in other places when they shouldn’t, make sure to do the same thing as we did above. You always want the &lt;h1&gt; first, &lt;h2&gt; second, and so on. <strong>Only one &lt;h1&gt;</strong>, 3-4 &lt;h2&gt;, and etc.</p>
<h2>Duplicate Content</h2>
<p>Wordpress is notorious when it comes to make duplicate content. The archives, categories, and even the front page can cause duplicate content issues which is bad for SEO.</p>
<p>Insert the following between the &lt;header&gt; tags</p>
<p><code>&lt;?php<br />
if((is_home() &amp;&amp; ($paged &lt; 2 )) || is_single() || is_page() || is_category()){<br />
echo '&lt;meta name="robots" content="index,follow" /&gt;';<br />
} else {<br />
echo '&lt;meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow" /&gt;';}<br />
?&gt;</code></p>
<p>Now, only  the page, home, and single page will be indexed, everything else will  be set to   noindex.</p>
<p>When you’re writing posts, make use of the &lt;!–more–&gt; tag in the wordpress Write Post screen. You want to use this so you don’t have your entire post indexed twice (once in the front and once in post view). In the WYSISYG editor, you can just click on this icon:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.bcyberseo.com/images/view_more.gif" alt="View More image" /></p>
<p>Make a text  file named <strong>robots.txt</strong> with</p>
<p><code>User-agent:  Googlebot<br />
Disallow:  /*/feed/$<br />
Disallow:  /*/feed/rss/$<br />
Disallow:  /*/trackback/$<br />
User-agent:  *<br />
Disallow:  /wp-<br />
Disallow:  /feed/<br />
Disallow:  /trackback/<br />
Disallow:  /rss/<br />
Disallow:  /comments/feed/<br />
Disallow:  /page/<br />
Disallow:  /date/<br />
Disallow:  /comments/</code></p>
<p>Put this in  your<strong> root directory</strong>.</p>
<p>If you changed the directory names, make sure the above robots.txt and won’t screw up your site, but 99% of the time you won’t need to change anything.</p>
<h2><strong>Change  Permalink Structure</strong></h2>
<p>Go to the  Wordpress admin and goto the options menu, in the submenu goto Permalinks.</p>
<p>For custom structure, use:</p>
<p><code>/%category%/%postname%/</code></p>
<p>or</p>
<p><code>/%postname%/</code></p>
<p>I would personally just use /%postname%/ unless you plan on  using the same post titles.</p>
<h2><strong>.htaccess</strong></h2>
<p>Default Htaccess<br />
<code># BEGIN WordPress<br />
&lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;<br />
RewriteEngine On<br />
RewriteBase /<br />
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f<br />
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d<br />
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]<br />
&lt;/IfModule&gt;</code></p>
<p>In your .htaccess file add the following 2 lines at the end.</p>
<p><code>RewriteCond %{http_host} ^DOMAIN.com [nc]<br />
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.DOMAIN.com/$1 [r=301,nc]</code></p>
<p>Change DOMAIN to your domain name.</p>
<p>So it looks like:<br />
<code># BEGIN WordPress<br />
&lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;<br />
RewriteEngine On<br />
RewriteBase /<br />
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f<br />
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d<br />
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]<br />
RewriteCond %{http_host} ^DOMAIN.com [nc]<br />
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.DOMAIN.com/$1 [r=301,nc]<br />
&lt;/IfModule&gt;</code></p>
<p>Make sure: “RewriteEngine On” is also in the htaccess (default for Wordpress Htaccess).</p>
<p>From now  on, all your domains will redirect to www.blogtitle.com if you use type blogtitle.com. This is to stop canonicalization.</p>
<p>Note, this only works for Apache servers. If you are running on a Windows server, you can grab this component to do the same thing: <a href="http://www.isapirewrite.com/" target="_blank">ISAPI_Rewrite</a>.</p>
<h2>Sitemaps, meta  keywords, meta descriptions, even better titles, related posts, permanent redirect</h2>
<p>These  will be done through free Wordpress plugins. Check out my upcoming plugins  guide!</p>
