Since blogging came into vogue, writing a blog post has become almost as much science as craft, with dos and don’ts abounding. Drawing from my experience, here is my list of top ten rules of blogging.
WordPress SEO, created by WordPress consultant and developer Joost de Valk, has emerged as the go-to search engine optimization tool for WordPress users. What I like is the framework it offers on the page, post, and media library to improve the attributes used by search engines to rank pages.
We all know that Google is the god of search engines and the gatekeeper of web traffic, and that with a sweep of its righteous Penguin algorithm it can wipe out years of SEO work on any site.
But did you know that Google is also a merciful search god that loves little web sites and wants them to succeed? What’s more, Google also provides the tools to educate and help webmasters to worship the search engine more efficiently and dogmatically.
Keywords are the terms that indicate what you are writing about and they tell a search engine what’s on your web page.

The administrator of your group must first give you a login and password to get into the “back end” of the WordPress blog. Go to the site itself and at the end the URL, type “/wp-admin,” ie. yoursite.com/wp-admin. This is a standard way to bring up the login page.
