What are the best widgets to use on Wordpress? And what is most useful on Wordpress for content syndication?
-
We are in the process of researching the best plugins and widgets for our clients' blogs. It appears that SEO by Yoast is most popular for 2013 so far. Any recommendations on which widgets we should be using or plugins for content syndication? If we use something like the Jetpack plugin, would this do the trick?

For SEO Structure:
- FV Simpler SEO, Yoast, or SEO Ultimate
For Comments:
- Disqus, Facebook Comments, or CommentLuv
For Social:
- Digg Digg, Sociable, or Get Social
Misc:
-
Google XML Sitemaps (for indexing)
-
WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, or Quick Cache (for page speed)
-
SEO Ultimate is my favorite by far after playing with all the others. Just make sure to install Google XML sitemaps as well since it isn't built in.
-
SEO by Yoast is a great SEO plugin. I use that on my personal blog. All In One SEO Pack is also good.
If there are multiple authors on your clients' blogs, consider using Google Author Link plugin to get their Google+ profiles to appear in search results with their content.

hello,
Try SEO Ultimate - for me is the best. Many useful features.

Blogger & Blogspot Content - Move Across To Own Domain?
Hey, A few new clients have blogs hosted on blogger & blogspot, the first advice of mine is to set up a blog hosted on their company domain. It's usually easy to convince them of the benefits. What should happen to all the content on the existing blog? One blog in question has over 100 entries, good content with a lot of links back to the business domain. The blog itself has less than 10 links pointing in but a domain mozrank 3.5. In this example, my gut is telling me to leave it as is, and start fresh on the own domain. What about if there's less then 10 posts? At what point should the content be moved over to the new blog? Thanks for your thoughts.

Remove Scraped Content?
There is a site I work for that has content that, when you search in Google a snippet of text from, they are not the top result for. I believe what has happened is that they had written blogs and articles and added them to their site and article directories at the same time and the article directories got cached first. If we're not coming up first for our article, that means we are not believed to be the original author, correct? Should I remove all content from our site where this is happening, even though we actually did create these articles?
