Hi Andrew! Thank you so much for this wonderful post. I am helping a client optimize his WordPress blogs for SEO and I installed the Aio SEO. However, I had a nagging feeling that I should be doing something more than just putting in the title, description and meta tags. Thank goodness I followed my gut and did my research. Will be subscribing to your rss/newsletter.

Thanks!

Hi, Kevin Stacey here..

First off, this post is extremely thorough! I don’t see too many bloggers going into detail like you have…that’s the mark of a blogger who knows their SEO plugin. For optimization, free plugins like All in One SEO Pack are really great as it lays down the basic SEO foundation for a WordPress site, but every blog is different and nothing works best for everyone.

I always suggest looking at a side-by-side comparison of the best seo plugins for WordPress in order to make an informed decision of what the best plugin is for that blogger and their website’s specific needs.

Here’s my most recent write-up on the subject:

SEO Pressor vs Easy WP SEO vs Scribe SEO

Check it out and let me know what you think.

Great article btw…I’ll be referencing this post on my main blog.

I am also wondering if anyone else has a case study. Before & After. Also, what kind of this has on pages vs. posts… Any thoughts?

I’m interested to know if any of you have any results from making the changes. Wondering if you all experienced improvements when changing the settings. Wanted to know before we make the change. Thanks!

Thanks a lot.
I have no idea on how to go about with this All in One SEO pack. But you have made a very valuable revelation. I am thankful to you for making such nice instruction that could be used in my blogs too. I am going to follow your steps very religiously.

Thank you.

I’m no techie by a long shot but it would seem that you would need %blog_title% somewhere in there.

Since I don’t see any other comments re problems with this, it must be techno-idiot me. I changed my All in One SEO date format from the full date to just the month and year, and the result was clicks from Google producing 404s.

Any thoughts? This sounds like a sensible tweak that I’d like to implement if I can get it right.

Andrew, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I have been using all-in-one seo for all my blogs and have never bothered changing anything in the way of settings – I suppose if someone creates a seo plugin, one would presume that they have set it on the optimum settings for the purpose that it was created for.

Everything you have said makes perfect sense. I agree with one of your other commenters that any software will not see 2 post names as duplicates, but the human eye could easily see this and mistake it for duplicate content. However, that still doesn’t change the fact that there is value in what you have found.

Thanks again,

Barry
