Why Use WordPress?

[ad_1]

Are you interested in starting your own blog? Are you using a blogging platform right now and they're just not happy with that? Well, I've great news. I have been blogging for quite some time and have used pretty much every blogging platform out there.

I have finally came to realize that there is no other blogging platform that is comparable to WordPress in my opinion.

WordPress is a far superior blogging platform and there are quite a few reasons why. I will list just a few in order to keep this article relatively short period

The Ease-Of-Use

WordPress by nature is just very easy to use. When it comes to writing down your thoughts and categorizing them in an easy to use and read format WordPress nails it.

The control panel that WordPress uses is super simple. You login, click a couple buttons, start writing and then click another button in your post is ready to be read by the world. Does it get any easier?

Search Engine Friendly

WordPress comes out of the box pretty search engine friendly. Although, you do need to change a few things after you install the blog.

The first, in my opinion, would be the permalink structure. Unfortunately, when you first set up your blog the permalink structure is not very pretty. But luckily that is easily corrected. Now, thepermalinkstructure is just a sample of what you can do with the default WordPress platform.

The Plug-Ins

Oh the plug-ins. You definitely cannot forget the plug-ins when it comes to WordPress. The wide range of plug-ins that are offered for WordPress for absolutely free is astonishing. You can find a WordPress plug-in to do pretty much anything you want.

Especially optimize the blog for search engine performance. A wide range of plug-ins that are available will make your blog a powerhouse when it comes to dominate in the search engines.

The Themes

WordPress has thousands of themes that are available. You can pretty much find a theme for any niche you can possibly imagine. The themes are well coded and very sharp.

You can find many styles of themes that will fit your personal needs, and most likely you will find it for free.

Anyway, that is just the few small reasons why I choose WordPress over the other blogging platforms. I could go on and on for hours about why you should use WordPress, but unfortunately I am limited to the space I can use here today.

But, knows this... WordPress is the number one blogging platform out there right now. That is my opinion at the time of this writing.

SEO Meanings

[ad_1] Like with most things, computer speak has a language all its own. When you create a website you most likely will encounter a lot of new lingo, and while some of it actually makes a lot of sense there are some terms that may be a bit weird, even for the techy among us. When you think of a white hat you may think of the Kentucky Derby or a Royal Wedding but in SEO speak it means the group of techniques that use the best practice, the ones that earn you all the gold stars and brownie points, the ones that don't use bad manipulations to gain traction or ranking, but those who do what they do to the best of their abilities, create wonderful content and follow all the rules. Things like time on page is pretty self explanatory. There are actually people out there who analyze data like how long people spend on a certain site. They are timed and when they click out that data is collected. You optimally want people to spend some time on your site, not just click in and out in three se...

[ad_1] As an obedient online marketing student, you've been creating content for your websites, trying to please the teacher, ie, Google. However after the recent updates, it seems that pleasing the teacher got a little tougher! Google Panda Update & SEO Articles In Feb 2011, Google came up with the Google Panda update with the intention to improve the search result quality. As a result many sites with a lot of ads and low quality content started to fade off. They were replaced with quality content based sites, social networking sites, news sites etc. In this way Google gave an indication that SEO content writing techniques used previously which included keyword stuffing, spinning etc were out of the window. If you wanted to achieve good SERPs, you have to create SEO articles that are meaningful and need not be too "sales-y".
