Wordpress plugins - which ones to use to increase SEO???
Last Update: June 01, 2012
I I just started my path to create a niche site; found keyword> bought domain>installed WP and done some tweaking on WP settings. I am sure there are some good plugins helpful to increase webistesite SEO, and of course it's not difficult to find them on WP plugins directory, but I am also sure some are better than others; so I'd like to ask WA folks more experienced than I, what they reckon are the most effective ones.

I prefer the Platinum SEO Plugin and it allows you to migrate from All-in-One.

As far as themes I have tried about a dozen of the free or cheaper ones and have three I like depending on the niche I am working with.

Suffusion by Sayontan Sinha - Lots of control and tons of bells and whistles. Larger sites.

Affiliate Internet Marketing theme 1.4 by Matt Carter - Simple and Easy to use and exactly what you need for a more simple site or a mini site.

Clean Copy by Cory Miller - Actually 3 different themes available depending on left, right or 3 column layout.

Bob, sorry, what do you mean exactly with "it allows you to migrate from All-in-One"???

If you already have All-in-One installed there is a feature that allows you to populate Platinum SEOs settings with data you have already set up in A&O using just one click. From there you can do additional tweaking in PS. Basically it is an upgrade from A&O to PS.

No secrets or short cuts only hard work, positive attitude and stay with it :-)

Yeah I know, I just wanted to put it in a funny way when I said "a secret weapon" ;-)

All-in-one SEO is kind of a standard plugin to add. Depending on the type of site you have, some kind of social-sharing plugin would be good to make it easy to get your content out there.

Hi
yes I always have All-in-one SEO installed on all my WP sites, just thought there could be some "secret weapon" plugin to boost SEO. I also use WP Ping Optimizer. I take the chance to ask you something about themes; I am struggling a bit with theme customization since I am not fit that much to do CSS adjustments. Would you suggest me any WP theme suitable for a clean niche site that can be easily set up? I usually look for the option to remove as much as possible all features I don't need (breadcrumbs, navbar, menu, etc)

Send a PM to Apina here in WA. He does a lot of CSS/Wordpress modifications and has reviewed more themes than I have. Someone else might be able to give you some suggestions too.

The only ones I've really used are Thesis (paid) and 2010/2011 (free). I don't use a lot of options either but those seems fairly clean so far.
