By optimizing your content, you increase the likelihood of it appearing at or near the top of search engine results pages (SERPs) for specific queries. Knowing what SEO means, let&#8217;s delve into why it holds such significance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-null-font-size\"><strong>Why is SEO Important?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Optimizing your WordPress website and content can help you reach potential customers who are actively searching for products or services related to yours. This optimization is achieved through organic means, which doesn&#8217;t involve paying search engines like Google to place your content at the top of their results page. Organic ranking content has several benefits, including increased reliability and trustworthiness among visitors compared to paid advertisements. Every business owner with a website should focus on improving their SEO as it&#8217;s an effective way to boost traffic, generate leads, increase conversions, and enhance overall notability.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading39854_ada9bb-26, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading39854_ada9bb-26[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading39854_ada9bb-26\"]{text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading39854_ada9bb-26 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading39854_ada9bb-26[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading39854_ada9bb-26\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading39854_ada9bb-26 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading39854_ada9bb-26\"><strong>A Guide to WordPress SEO: 12 Ways to Improve<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking to enhance your WordPress website&#8217;s search engine optimization (SEO), increase organic traffic, and establish authority on search engines, then here are 12 effective strategies that can help you achieve these goals. By implementing these techniques, you can attract more visitors and customers to your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Check Your WordPress Visibility Settings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to verify your visibility settings in WordPress because the platform has a feature that enables you to conceal your website from search engines. This can be useful if you&#8217;re constructing or revamping your site and don&#8217;t want people to see it while it&#8217;s still unfinished. You can locate this option in the &#8220;Reading&#8221; section of your WordPress dashboard under &#8220;Settings&#8221;. Make sure that you haven&#8217;t activated this function by mistake, or neglected to deactivate it after finishing your website. If it&#8217;s enabled, then search engine optimization won&#8217;t function properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Change Your Permalinks<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A permalink is a URL that remains constant and directs to a specific post, page, or blog on your website. It provides a clear indication of the content of the webpage it leads to. Changing permalinks can enhance both user experience and search engine optimization (SEO) as search engines utilize permalinks to determine if your site has relevant information for particular searches. For instance, in the context of your gluten-free caf\u00e9&#8217;s website, you could have a page devoted to sharing gluten-free recipes with its own permalink like www.mysite.com\/gluten-free-recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to make your permalinks more descriptive of your content, simply go to the WordPress dashboard and select \u201cPermalinks\u201d under \u201cSettings\u201d. From there, you can choose a new permalink structure that accurately reflects the topic of your posts. Once you have made your selection, be sure to save the changes by clicking on the \u201cSave Changes\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Use Tags and Categories<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Organizing your website\u2019s pages and blog posts into tags and categories can enhance your SEO by providing a clear structure to search engines. This helps them understand the content of your website better, leading to improved rankings. Moreover, it also improves user experience as visitors can easily navigate through relevant content on your site. Additionally, managing all of your website content becomes more streamlined with the use of tags and categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tags<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Tags serve as descriptive keywords that can be used to indicate the content of a particular page or post. For instance, on your gluten-free cafe&#8217;s website, tags for one of your pages could consist of terms like &#8220;muffins&#8221;, &#8220;tea&#8221;, or &#8220;cookies&#8221;. To manage your tags, simply navigate to the WordPress dashboard and select &#8220;Posts&#8221; followed by &#8220;Tags&#8221;. Here you can view all existing tags or create new ones by clicking on the option labeled &#8220;Add New Tag&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Categories<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To categorize your posts and pages in a broader sense, you can use categories. For instance, for the gluten-free cafe website, you may create categories like &#8220;gluten-free&#8221;, &#8220;cafe&#8221;, and &#8220;allergy&#8221; to group similar content together. To add a new category, navigate to the WordPress settings and select &#8220;Writing&#8221;. You will find your existing categories listed here along with an option to create a new one by clicking on the &#8220;Add New Category&#8221; button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Choose an SEO Plugin<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>WordPress plugins are a great way to extend the capabilities of your website beyond its default features. With thousands of options available, you can easily find and install plugins that specifically target SEO improvements. If you&#8217;re unsure which plugin to use, simply browse through the WordPress plugin library&nbsp;to discover various options that cater to your requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SEO plugins, such as Yoast SEO, All In One SEO Pack, and SmartCrawl Pro offer features to help you build XML sitemaps, implement tags and categories, optimize your titles and content with the use of key phrases and keywords, control your site\u2019s breadcrumbs, and take advantage of Google Analytics support.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Use XML Sitemaps<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An XML sitemap is a file that contains code for every page of your website and is stored on your web server. The purpose of XML sitemaps is to assist search engines in discovering, assessing, and ranking the content present on your site. Creating an XML sitemap manually requires extensive coding knowledge; therefore, installing an SEO plugin like Yoast SEO or a dedicated sitemap creator such as Google XML Sitemaps can be the easiest option as they automatically generate your sitemaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. Internally Link Your Site<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Enhancing your website&#8217;s authority is crucial for improving its SEO. One of the primary factors that search engines use to determine your site&#8217;s authority is the number of internal links you have to other pages, posts, blogs, and content. To create internal links, you can select specific words on your page that you want to link and click on the link button in WordPress toolbar. Then paste the URL of the webpage or content you want to redirect visitors to. Once done, those selected words will turn blue and become clickable hyperlinks directing users to other relevant pages or posts within your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. Optimize Your Images<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Optimizing your WordPress website is crucial for improving its performance, and this includes optimizing your images. One effective way to optimize images is by adding Image-Alt-Text, which are descriptions of the images that search engines use to rank your site based on the relevance of its content. To add Image-Alt-Text to your images, you can use an SEO plugin like SEO Optimized Images or check if your current plugins support this feature. The Alt text section is where you should enter a brief description of the image using dashes between multiple words. For instance, if you want to describe a picture of HubSpot&#8217;s WordPress Contact Form Builder plugin, it&#8217;s best to write &#8220;WordPress-Contact-Form-Builder&#8221; instead of combining all words into one or separating them with underscores. By doing so, search engines will recognize each word as separate and relevant keywords when ranking your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>8. Use SSL<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>SSL, or SSL, which stands for Secure Sockets Layer, is a widely used security technology that establishes an encrypted connection between a server and browser. Its primary function is to ensure that any information exchanged between your website and its visitors remains safe from prying eyes. For instance, when someone submits their credit card details through your order form, SSL encrypts the data to prevent it from being intercepted by cybercriminals. Moreover, having SSL installed on your site can boost its SEO ranking as search engines like Google favor secure websites over non-secure ones. Fortunately, if you have a WordPress.com account, SSL comes pre-installed so there&#8217;s no need for manual setup. However, if you&#8217;re using another type of account such as WordPress.org where you&#8217;re responsible for securing your website yourself then installing an SSL plugin like Real Simple SSL would be beneficial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>9. Use Nofollow External Links<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you link to other pages on your website, it helps establish your authority. Similarly, when you link to external sources or content that you believe would benefit your visitors, you are also boosting their authority by giving them &#8220;link juice&#8221;. This means that linking externally can be beneficial for both your own SEO and the SEO of the pages you are referencing. However, there is a way to prevent spam&nbsp;and control how search engines follow these external links: using Nofollow external links. By adding this attribute to your WordPress site&#8217;s hyperlinks, search engines will not follow those URLs and only improve the ranking and authority of your own site. You can add Nofollow links manually or by including &#8220;nofollow&#8221; in the &#8220;Link Relationship&#8221; field when creating hyperlinks with specific keywords or phrases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also a number of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/search\/nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Nofollow plugins<\/a>&nbsp;available for your WordPress site in the plugin library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>10. Manage Your Security<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As we discussed previously, having SSL certificates installed on your website can improve its authority and ranking as search engines prefer secure sites. It is important to note that the level of security provided for your WordPress site may vary depending on the plan you have chosen. However, you can always opt to install plugins like Wordfence Security or iThemes Security to bolster your site&#8217;s protection against potential threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>11. Optimize Your Comments<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Receiving comments on your posts can increase engagement on your website, leading to more traffic, interaction, and link sharing. However, spammy comments can have a negative impact on your SEO and ranking. To avoid this, it&#8217;s important to filter out fake comments from bots and ensure that you&#8217;re only receiving genuine feedback from real people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WordPress plugins such as All In One WordPress Security &amp; Firewall and Spam Protection, Anti Spam, Firewall by CleanTalk, the spam-blocking feature will prevent comments that contain spam and also put a stop to other types of spam, including incorrect form submissions, subscriptions, orders, and so on. A number of these plugins offer functionalities that can effectively prevent spammers from accessing your website. Additionally, they come equipped with features that completely bar known spammers from returning to your site in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>12. Choose WWW or non-WWW<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When accessing websites by URL, there are two ways to do it: with or without the \u201cwww\u201d prefix. For example, you can search for a website as www.example.com or just example.com. These two URLs are considered different websites by search engines, so it\u2019s important to choose one and stick with it. The good news is that this choice won\u2019t affect your SEO ranking; it\u2019s simply a matter of preference. Once you\u2019ve made your decision, be consistent in using that domain name when linking internally and externally on social media and email. This will help build authority for your site and improve its chances of ranking higher in search results. To select your preferred option, go to the \u201cSettings\u201d section of your WordPress dashboard and locate the form fields for your URL under \u201cGeneral Settings\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading39854_65c449-89,
