Are there any tools available for wordpress that can help with SEO?
-
I'm looking for a wordpress plugin that that keeps current/updates with all the changes that constantly take place on various search engines. Is there such an addon that meets this criteria?
-
It depends on your wordpress theme. Some themes use a complicated method of displaying the meta description and Yoast SEO will tell you there are multiple description tags. It will offer to try to fix it automatically which works in some themes and breaks others. It's best to have some professional help available in case it messes up your template.

If you download the app and follow the instructions in that article you should be just fine, don't be intimated and if you have any more questions while you are setting up your Yoast account ask them here and someone will help you out

Since both you and David recomended yoast I'm assuming it's the real deal. Thanks, and thanks for answering all my questions so quickly tonight Smartlock.
One last thing before I log off for the night,
That article looks pretty complicated for someone with no SEO experience. Would I need an SEO expert to set it up? Or am I just being intimidated by the SEO jargon? lol

Does a "Read More" button to open up the full content affect SEO?
As we've been refining our metrics for gauging whether or not a blog is effective -- if people are engaging with it -- one of the strategies we've seen (e.g. NYT, WaPo, Yahoo!) is "Read More." I've read a few articles with some who advocate using it and others who discourage it. Does anyone have any history adding "Read More" to their content and the effect it had?

How do I fix a broken link to a product category page in wordpress?
We are building a new site currently at http://67.222.109.48/~cheapnan/ I started doing some SEO after the developer I hired failed to do it even though it was in the agreement. I did our old site so I should be able to do this but I am new to wordpress. Now when i go to the products tab at the top of the page the first 2 have broken links, I checked the rest and there are 3 total that I need to fix. I am unsure how to access the navigation so I can fix the links. Please tell me where to look.

Is this a worthwhile SEO tactic?
Many 'list' articles break down so that number one is on page one, and you are asked to click 'Next' to see number two. Number two is on page two, etc. For example: http://www.prevention.com/health/health-concerns/12-replacements-high-cholesterol-foods Is this done simply to keep bounce rate down? Is it something I should try, or is it frowned upon in any way? Will it help bounce rate? If it's a good practice, how would I do this in a Wordpress blog post? Thanks!
