Search Engine Optimization: Five WordPress Plugins To Make It Easier

December 20th, 2007 by Fahd

Letting the world know about your blog is one of the trickier aspects of starting a new blog or getting people notice one that you’ve been working on. This is so-called search engine optimization or SEO. Google is the most obvious target for these efforts as it dominates the search market and is the default search engine for popular browsers like Firefox. Moreover of you open up the browser and you have nothing particular in mind, the most probable site you type in address bar is google.com yeah I know it ;) . Google rules the SEO tech world and everybosy wants to be in google SERPS (Search engine result pages).  Working around the rules that keep Google and other search engines relevant is arcane at best and at worst will result in your sites being demoted in relevance or delisted entirely. Yep that happens. I have learnt it from my best and worst SEO experiences. There are many theorists and companies that indulge in this sort of speculation and some are more successful than others at nudging search results in the ways they desire them to.

Well guys (not to mention the girls) ,  SEO is what can be called the  ” The most desirable feature/quality (whatever you name it) of a website. To me there are two points about SEO.

  •  More and more incoming links to your blog/site.
  • neat clean directory like URLs for your pages.
  • No redirections.
  • Table less structure to ensure search engines see the text version of your site easily and dont get confused with the text formating on your sit. ( Yeah its important!)
  • Quality /niche oriented / keyword specific content on a page.

WP plugin: Get Author Profile

June 23rd, 2007 by Fahd

WP plugin: Get Author Profile

Get Author Profile is a pretty basic WordPress plugin that lets you manually access an author’s (i.e. user’s) profile. The main purpose is to let you provide author information outside The Loop, such as for a sidebar intro of the blog owner or to list contributors to your blog.

(Note to WordPress 1.2 users: This is now a WordPress 1.5+ plugin. See the July 9th update.)

When the get_author_profile() function is called with a specific numeric User ID, you can make use of global variables related to that author’s profile, or alternatively display their information with the function author_profile().
