I know of a few seo professionals who voluntarily block search engines from indexing their hosted images in their site, because they believe most people who does image search in Google are scrappers and I do agree to their side of argument. But what if the case your blog’s traffic mainly depends on image search in Google?
I would say this is one of the best wordpress and seo pugins you could get, how many times do you want to change your url structure or forced to change the permalinks and got in to the problem of facing too many 404 errors in your blog?
I don’t know about you but I faced this problem on one of my blogs last year and I had to install the redirection plugin and set up redirects for more than 200 urls which took me nearly 2 days to complete the work, I was not aware of the existence of this plugin way back then, if I had it would have reduced my work burden to such an extent that it would have reduced my work of two days to few minutes or even seconds.
I was just going through some of the plugins on wordpress.org website, I came across this wonderful plugin and I am really happy that I am writing a review on this plugin for the simple reason, its a kind of plugin which I was looking for on a long time. I would say this plugin is in fact better than headspace2 plugin which I have used on my wordpress seo tutorial? in fact I am thinking of rewriting that tutorial using this plugin because it makes your job a lot more easier and this plugin works really well with the latest wordpress version too.
With this plugin installed you can rewrite the meta datas of homepage title, post title, page title pretty easily than ever before.
Having search engine friendly pretty urls can prove to be of great help in your over all SEO efforts, you should know that search engines allot only 65 characters in total for your urls, that means whatever words or keywords that might go after those 65 characters will not be taken in to consideration by search engines, so its necessary that you need to make sure your urls stay well within the limits to gain any SEO, this is where SEO slugs plugin comes in, it actively eliminates the words like “in” “the” “a” etc out of the urls saving you those valuable characters count.
You might think what popular post has something to do with SEO, well its not something that directly related to SEO, but SEO is all about providing the users or search engine and visitors of your blog with what they are really looking for. Also you not only need to do active with your blogs, you also required to be proactive meaning you need to take full advantage of your stats and see what people like to read in your blog.
I see a lot blogs running without this plugin and I really wonder why? what’s the problem in installing this simple wordpress plugin that will enhance the SEO value of their blog.
How this plugin could possibly could helpful?
I would say this plugin will be very helpful in distributing PR juice uniformly across your blog, also it connects all the posts of your blog better in your homepage together, blog with a lot of posts will benefit a lot with this plugin, also it makes the job easier for search engine bots and it will enable them to find all of your posts very easily even if you hold a complex navigation system that makes the job tougher for the search engine bots to find your posts, if your posts are arranged in the form of pages in the homepage it can check out all the posts in your blog one by one and still find your post. In a way it increases your internal links which will benefit you a lot.
In fact I have already mentioned about the importance of optimizing your images properly and how it could benefit you by driving traffic to your site to a great extent in this post here.
How To Optimize Your Images In Your blog For SEO
anyways today I am going to briefly talk about this plugin and what it does and why it is really essential in your blogs where you tend to use more number of images, we can take techno sites as an example here where we tend to use more number of images to keep the readers interested in your posts. Not only that when you optimize the images you use in such sites it will prove to show you great results on the long run, as it drives good amount of traffic to your site.
I know a lot of people out there are very much fond of using all in one seo plugin for wordpress when it comes to your on page optimization needs for your blog. But I must say whether you are using all in one seo plugin or whatever wordpress plugins you might be using to better optimize your blog, headspace2 plugin is something that I will recommend to all my readers and also for my clients always.
I would say having this plugin installed in your wordpress blog is really essential, whenever I install a blog for me, first thing I will do is always install this plugin first, just after my installation is over, first thing I will do is install this one.
Many people really do under estimate the power of internal links, we tend to think that links pointing to different posts within our same site carries no value, but this assumption is wrong and not true, when you have a look in to sites like wikipedia they absolutely tend to dominate the search engines for many less competitive search terms. Reason for lies in their power of internal links, if you happen to just look at a page in wikipedia you will be amazed with the amount of internal links they have in their site.
