Truth: WordPress is the leading blog CMS anyone can use on their cloud server or dedicated server. Why? WordPress is so friendly that it actually helps you boost your search engine rankings without putting forth much effort. Of course, you'll have to create "lots and lots of content" to improve your natural search engine rankings. But having WordPress installed on your dedicated server or cloud server is the best choice any aspiring million-dollar blogger or Internet marketer could make. With WordPress, you make yourself available to utilizing thousands of free WordPress plug-ins that'll not only help you boost your natural search engine rankings, but also improve your online visibility in search engine results pages and achieve more than free exposure across multiple social networking platforms.
Question from someone inquiring about how to improve SEO using meta tags and keywords to increase visibility in search engine results pages:
"Hello my favorite commenter, do you have time to assist me with understanding Keywords and Meta Tags better, as I should be getting more eyes on my blog posts. Thank you very much!"
Answer: The best plug-in you want to use for right now to improve your natural search engine rankings is the Next Scripts Auto Social Poster plug-in. It'll help you to syndicate your content to social networks faster like
Pinterest.com
Facebook.com
Twitter.com
LinkedIn.com
Tumblr.com
and more, thus increasing your natural back links and improving your search engine rankings simultaneously. There's a free version and paid.
Moreover, If you really want to keep track of your traffic rank improvements, bookmark your Alexa to your web browser.
https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/yourwebsite.com
(put your website name where it says "yourwebsite," and you'll find out what your Alexa.com traffic rank is for that day globally and in the United States.
Always remember....the lower the traffic rank #, the more you're improving.
When your global rank gets down to the 100's and your U.S. rank hits around 50k or lower, that's really when the $ gUaP $ starts coming in like water. But until then, you have to keep creating lots and lots of content to improve you natural SEO. The meta tags and keywords stuff is really not necessary to focus on. Just your content. and consistency @ that.
Bing.com, Google.com & YaHoO.com don't mention, but their search engines quietly grade blogs and websites and rank them better in the SERPs based on consistent content posting. In other words, if you're posting everyday or every other day v. someone just posting once to twice a week, obviously you're going to rank better over them. Especially when your published content pages are longer than theirs.
Don't fret over optimizing with keywords and meta tags. Just churn out quality content and make you pages long, and you'll grandfather in good rankings using WordPress on a dedicated server, the NextScripts WordPress plugin, and "consistently creating quality content."
