Want to get more search engine traffic to your Wordpress blog? Here are some great WordPress SEO Tips you should be using everytime when you’re publishing a post. It involves placing your targeted keywords in three important areas: TITLE TAG, POST TITLE and POST SLUG.

First, you need to go to http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/ and download a plugin called “All-in-one-SEO”. Install and activate it.

>>> NOTE: If you don’t know how to install and activate Wordpress plugin, I highly recommend you to read this book: “WordPress Adsense System“. This post assumes that you’re already familiar with wordpress.

After activating the “All-in-one-SEO” plugin, you should see the following fields whenever you write a post.

The most important field is the Title. This is where you place your targeted keyword in the TITLE Tag of a post. I usually put the main keyword here. Make sure you also make use of the Keyword field, enter your related keywords (or tags) here.

How do you find your main and related keywords?

First, I use Google AdWords Keyword Tool. It’s a great tool to find related keywords quickly. And if I need to do more in-depth keyword research, I use Keyword Elite.

Now, pick up one PRIMARY keyword and two SECONDARY keywords from the list of related keywords generated by above mentioned tools. Use your primary keyword for the “all-in-one-seo”, and secondary keywords for the post title and post slug each.

These extra works take a bit of time to do everytime you write a post but it’s worth your time because you will soon experience more search engine traffic to your blog.

As for the post content, write as if you’re having a conversation with a human being. Do not worry about where to place your targeted keywords in the beginning. After you’ve finished writing your post, read through it again and this time try to fit your targeted keywords as close to the beginning of the first sentence as possible. Make sure to use a lot of keyword synonyms frequently throughout your entire article.
