True, this plugin is widely used. I’ve used this before in my Lady Programmer blog. But I discovered another plugin named Platinum SEO plugin which has more features (such as noindex, nofollow options) and is getting the attention it deserves. It’s also easy to use, try it. :-)
Really? Platinum SEO plugin, more feature? no wonder it called “platinum”. :)
Will try it! Thanks for the info. :)
Hi,
I’ve been using this nifty add-on for my blog – but when I check results on Google, it’s been using the first lines of text rather than my description.
I’ve wondered whether it’s because I have the autogenerate ticked
or whether it’s this bit of code in the head:
Any ideas?
Hi Fred,
Try not to tick the autogenerate.
If you are using this seo plugin, search engine will display the description that you have input. And normally the description is the first two lines of text. And the first two lines of text should include your keywords.. This is how we optimize it.. :)
i used this almost all the time..it bring me google traffics all the while
I cannot stay without this plugin. Absolutely “must have” plugin for wordpress.
A fantastic read….very literate and informative. Many thanks….what theme is this you are using and also, where is your RSS button ?
Hi Pagerank Checker,
I got a big RSS button at the header, the right side bar got another one and also you can find one at the footer.. :)
I couldn’t recall this theme but you are able to find this theme if you google “SEO friendly wordpress theme” ;)
Your Article is very interesting, It addressses issues in a very clear manner. I have enjoyed very much reading it. Keep up the good writing.

Hi Sandalio Jure,
Thanks for drop by and hope you enjoy my sharing. :)
Thanks for writing this informative article, I’ve always wondered how to get my site as one of the first links on Google.
What versions are you using? I am a bit worried about upgrading to the newest version. I am running 1.4.9
Hi Amitch87,
This is a useful plugin and if you have a blog, do get this plugin :)
Hi Geo,
I’m using 1.4.9 too, you can try to upgrade to newest version and I think it’s fine for the upgrading. :)
I would like to know if anyone is using a newer version before i upgrade.
Moon, do you know anything about how post get indexed? I have notice that on some post they get index by the post title within a day and some just get index with the title of the page and a summary description of the post. Example:
Post Title:
Wordpress Plugin – All in One SEO Pack | Moonloh.com
title of page:
Moon Loh’s Life In Internet Marketing | Moonloh.com

This is driving me nuts on why is indexing properly with post/site name and then it changes to site title with post in the description.
If you know anything about why it does this i would greatly appreciated.
Hi Geo,
You can always google the review of newer version before upgrading to get more information. :)
For the post to get indexed, I’m not sure the indexing you mean here is it get indexed by Google Search Engine. For my opinion, as long as we do our part to do the SEO for our website, regardless it get indexed with the post title or page title, once our site get rank in front pages of Search Engine, that’s a good news! How you think? :)
i am still looking for a good SEO plugin for WordPress. my blog is not ranking high enought for the keywords that i wanted to rank.

Hi Rick,
You can install Akismet Plugin. This plugin is available in all wordpress blog and will filter spam comments for you. :)
Definitely a must have plugin for WP, there must be millions of blogs using All in one SEO pack! I wouldn’t run a blog without this plugin. There are other versions produced by other developers, but have never installed as AIOSP does everything I need :D
This is a great post, All in one SEO is the must have plugin for every blog which are interested to generate the traffic from search engines.
One of the best plugins for wordpress by far, I have it installed on all of my blogs / websites – the best feature for me is being able to label menu links differently to the actual titles and of course being able to put in descriptions that by default, WP won’t allow you to do! Just goes to show, pretty much anything can be done with WordPress.
You made some first rate points there. I seemed on the internet for the issue and located most people will go together with together with your website.

If you are too new to blogging, no rush, you can always improve from time to time. The key here is to have your brand name put under the All In One SEO plugin (Read more for All In One SEO Plugin).

Hi, Kevin Stacey here..
First off, this post is extremely thorough! I don’t see too many bloggers going into detail like you have…that’s the mark of a blogger who knows their SEO plugin. For optimization, free plugins like All in One SEO Pack are really great as it lays down the basic SEO foundation for a WordPress site, but every blog is different and nothing works best for everyone.
I always suggest looking at a side-by-side comparison of the best seo plugins for WordPress in order to make an informed decision of what the best plugin is for that blogger and their website’s specific needs.
