The first versions of this article were heavily
based on using a plugin called HeadSpace and a
series of other plugins. We’ve since released our
own WordPress SEO plugin which replaces quite a
few of those. That plugin has proven so powerful
that sites like SearchEngineLand, The Next Web
and Mashable now all use it. This WordPress SEO
plugin is very stable and ready to use and this
article now assumes you’re using it.
If you’re using another SEO plugin, like All in One
SEO pack or Ultimate SEO, but would like to
switch and make use of our free and extremely
powerful SEO plugin, we’ve written a migration
guide for you. It’s a really easy process. If you’re
not using an SEO plugin yet, grab our WordPress
SEO plugin and get going.
As search, SEO, and the WordPress platform
evolve we will continue to keep this article up to
date with best practices. Be sure to subscribe to
