Which Wordpress Framework for Best SEO
-
Which wordpress framework would you use for SEO.
From what I have had a look at:
Thesis is good but you cannot use other SEO plugins with it such as yoast SEO as it is not compatible
Genesis or woo framework are good and a plugin like yoast SEO works well with them.
What are your thoughts?
-
Solid advice. AAAhhh.... reminding me I need to work on getting my content shared more easily too!
-
Genesis is the other big framework but never used. I stick to Thesis, you don't really need any seo plugins for it anyway.
I also think people worry too much about their WP blogs being super optimized, just worry about the content and getting the content shared.

agreed

I personally think the Yoast SEO plugin is the best... but you mignt want to try All-In-One SEO Pack for wordpress. You're going to miss out on some of the javacripty tools that tell you how many times your keyword focus phrase appears in your posts and pages but all the same basic tools are there and I've never had a problem with the implementation. It's what I use personally for a fallback.
-
I use 'Ultimate SEO' plugin and find it works wonders, has everything there you will need. Frameworks are indeed overrated, as long as you've got a good setup and proper url structure with a good seo plugin then you should be laughing.
-
I think the frameworks are over-rated. Just take a decently coded template and use Yoast's plugin for SEO.

I have used a variety of frameworks since my clients are scattered between so many different verticals. I have found that using a third party web builder for homepage and other major converting pages is huge if you really want 100% esthetic control... But uploading your Wordpress to the root file under a subpage (preferably using a keyword) and then building internal links from the nav bar and other in content areas of the 3rd party web built parts has been a major success in getting me almost 10 sites now first page, first spot google. Of course the content is king and best part the indexed post from Wordpress are now picked up as being tied to the root file adding more and more indexed pages to your site. Clients LOVE the flexibility in design and being able to take over some parts of the sites operability and they will LOVE you even more when they are out ranking their competitors. PS . I do not ever use any SEO plugins -chenzo

What is the best way to refresh a webpage of a news site, SEO wise?
Hello all, we have a client which is a sports website. In fact it is a veyr big website and has a huge number of news per day. This is mostly the reason why it refreshes some of its pages with news list every 420 seconds. We currently use meta refresh. I have read here and elsewhere that meta refreshes should be avoided. But we don't do it to send to another page and pass any kind of page authority / juice. Is in this case javascript refresh better? Is there any other better way. What do you think & suggest? Thank you!

What are your thoughts on Twylah and SEO?
I recently signed up for Twylah. If you are not familiar with it, Twylah creates a summary of all your tweets, which you can then add to your site to make them easily accessible for humans and for search engines. On first glance I am really liking this idea, however after adding Twylah to our site, our crawl diagnostics took a major spike in errors and alerts: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/90501/static/Diagnostics%20After%20Twylah.png Here is our Twylah page: http://tweets.hingeheads.com I am not a SEO expert, but the number of errors is worrying me. Are we getting penalized by Search Engines/Google because of the high number in errors/alerts? Curious to hear your thoughts. P.S. I have fwd this to the Twylah team. They will get back to me in the next few days.Diagnostics%20After%20Twylah.png
