3 easy search engine optimization modifications for your Wordpress blog

If you are in the blogging majority, you want to include your page rank. There are a few things you can do from your dashboard with few technical skills. This is search engine optimization that only needs to modified once.


Get rid of your Uncategorized category
Naming all your categories gives search engine crawlers one more scent to sniff you out better.
Go to Settings > Writing > Default Post Category and choose a new default category.
Then go to Posts > Categories > delete "Uncategorized" from the list.

Add metadata to your site
I've explained this in detail on another post.
Basically, go to Appearance > Editor > header.php and replace the existing metadata:
<meta name=”list of keywords relating to your site- TIP: check your analytics tool to see what brings people to your site” content=”keywords” />
<meta name=”short description of your blog” content=”name” />

Dump your admin username
Admin usernames are both security risks and anonymous. Give search users a chance to find you by your handle.
If you want to use the email listed in your admin file for your new username, go into Users > Authors & Users > and change the admin email to another. Then, create a new user profile in Users > Add New. Be sure to make this one Administrator.
Then you must logout, login with the new username and go back to Users > Authors & Users > and delete the admin.
