Do you have new blog with wordpress platform installed on it? Confused how to make first SEO optimization for that? If so, you just like me, I’ve nothing knowledge on how to optimized a new blog with wordpress until I found ebook about Wordpress SEO for Beginners. I think it is “a basic SEO optimization” for a new wordpress blog that must applied on our blog first.

The ebook show us what must we do after we install wordpress on webhosting blog in order to gain easier indexed by Google Search Engine. So, what must we do first on our new wordpress?

1. Change your default ping services list. The default ping in general wordpress is just http://rpc.pingomatic.com/. You can found it located on tab Writing in section Update Services text box in the bottom of the page. Now you can change it to more than 50 pinging services listed including Google Ping Blog.

2. Upload plugin No Ping Wait in order to avoid ping all these websites one by one which the process will waste a lot of time before you make another post or edit post continuesly. Actually, it just puts the process of pinging in the backlog and allows you to continue working seamlessly by removing any kind of delays.

3.  Change your Title Tags of your Wordpress Theme. The default wordpress title tags on header.php generally show like this:

<title><?php if (is_home () ) { bloginfo(’name’); }</title>.

Then you can change it to:

<title><?php if (is_home () ) { bloginfo(’name’); } elseif ( is_category() ) { single_cat_title(); echo ” - “; bloginfo(’name’); }
elseif (is_single() || is_page() ) { single_post_title(); } elseif (is_search() ) { bloginfo(’name’); echo ” search results: “;
echo wp_specialchars($s); } else { wp_title(”,true); } ?></title>

4. Setting up your Meta Tags instantly and completely with the plugin of All in one SEO Pack. Just activate it and then you can fill the form with all data information of your blog such as blog title, description, keyword, etc. Or you can find other pugins related via Google Search.

5.  Change your Permalinks option in your Wordpress admin. In wordpress ver 2.5+, located on tab Setting then subtab Permalinks, it shows like this picture:

Click on the fourth option (Custom) to enable it, and type %postname%.html in the text box. Now, the URL of your blogpost will show like this: yourdomain.com/hello-world.html. This is better Search Engine friendly than the previous default.

In addition, you can set your blog post URL more SearchEngine friendly by using this plugin: SEO Post link from Maxblogpress. This will ignored unnecessary word on your URL, for instance, http://www.marketingblogonline.com/basic-seo-for-new-wordpress-blog.html, then it will be http://www.marketingblogonline.com/basic-seo-wordpress-blog.html

6. Install Google Sitemap Generator, which will automatically generate XML sitemaps for your blog. It can help Google to crawl the blog better which may result in a more complete index of your page. You can download here Google Sitemaps Generator for Wordpress.

7. Install Social Bookmarking plugins. The most popular plugin for social bookmarking nowadays is AddThis. It has support for adding the bookmarking widget at the end of every post in your blog.
