Headspace II

August 8th, 2008 by Clint and tagged ,

Headspace II is a great plugin that is great for SEO. With it you can tag your posts, create custom titles and descriptions that improve your page ranking, change the theme or run disabled plugins on specific pages, and a whole lot more.

First, if you don’t already have it, you can get it here and upload it to you wp-content file on your server. Once activated, you can go to your settings and find it in the nav bar.

HeadSpace II has a couple of different ways of creating meta descriptions and keywords to assist your SEO efforts.

Firstly, for those of us who feel we don’t have enough time, there is the automatic way. HeadSpace II can put an excerpt of your post in the description tag and the categories associated with the post in the keywords tag.

Secondly, for those of us who need a little more control, there is the manual way. Once installed, each post now comes with a meta description and meta keyword box on the posting screen. Simply fill those two out and HeadSpace II will do the rest.

All in all a very nice little plugin that can make life just that bit easier.

Add This

August 7th, 2008 by Clint and tagged , ,

Add This is a Plugin that you can add to your Wordpress site that will make Social Networking and Bookmarking, a whole lot easier for just not you, but anyone who stops by your blog.

What it does is it inserts a small button at the end of each of your posts. When you run your cursor over the button it expands and there are links displayed to every major, and a host of smaller, Networking and Bookmarking sites.

Sometimes you can insert a plugin for each of your preferred sites, such as Digg and Facebook, but this plugin caters more for your readers who may use the tool if their Bookmarking site is available. This becomes more important as your levels of traffic starts to increase.

All you have to do is to go to the Add This website, and download the plugin. Upload to your server, activate, and at the end of each post you’ll have a nice little button that you can have easy access to turbocharge your SEO efforts.

Introduction To Wordpress

July 19th, 2008 by Clint and tagged , ,

If you had asked me what Wordpress was six months ago, then I would have had no idea what you were talking about. After continuing my quest on becoming a Super Affiliate, it seems that blogging is the future of online publishing. Of all the blogging platforms available, one name kept coming up, Wordpress.

Wordpress is the blogging platform of choice for those in the know. Why is that? Mainly because of the way that you can tweak Wordpress and get it to do exactly what you want, and more importantly from the view of an  Internet Marketer, it has superior SEO characteristics that ultimately effect our bottom line.

This blog is about exploring the possibilities of what Wordpress can do for you as a blogger, and as an Internet Marketer. We’ll go through some of the basics and then get in to the little things in the back end that just could make the difference between being on page one of Google or page 487 of Google. After all, it’s no point having a blog if no one can find it right. And if you happen to monetize your blog you could do with some extra traffic I’m guessing.

So stay tuned, and I’ll do my best to enlighten you to the wonderful world of Wordpress.
