SEO Plugins for WordPress
-
Hi, Mozzers-
I'm re-evaluating my SEO WordPress Plugins. What are your favorites and why? Are there others that you avoid and why?
Thanks!

I currently use All in One SEO and haven't had problems.
Now I'm seeing reviews for the Yoast plugin over All in One SEO.
I downloaded the Yoast Wordpress SEO but it seems to have far less features and settings unless Yoasts plugin is doing everything on auto-pilot I think fixing what isn't broke for me isn't an option unless someone can compare the two side by side and demonstrate why I should switch and how I could benefit.
In regard to updates, I get fairly frequent version updates from All In One SEO.
Here is a link that may help you - User's Guide for All In One SEO Pack

I've developed a WP plugin which works like Tynt except it doesn't add the annoying # tag at the end: http://dejanseo.com.au/copylink/ - it's great for getting automated attribution and link when people copy your content.
-
Yes to Yoast as well. I used the All-In-One SEO for a while, plus some others, but Yoast seems to be much more powerful.
-
Try the FV All In One plugin. It's great, and it allows you to add a custom canonical tag on any page you want.
-
Another +1 for Yoast's plugin - it's brilliant. Pretty much everything in one plugin.
-
The most comprehensive I've used is Joost de Valk's Yoast SEO plugin. It's absolutely the most comprehensive. I don't use anything else now. Prior, I was using Arne Brachenwald's Google XML Sitemap plugin and the All in One SEO plugin. Joost de Valk had done a much better job of staying a head of versions and releasing a more comprehensive toolkit.

Do subfolders for grouping common services pages help SEO?
Hello, fellow MOZers. Here is the question: Is there any benefits/disadvantages of having pages, grouped by common type of service, to be put into subfolder with keyphrase-friendly phrase? Example: We have website https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com/ and several services under "SEO" niche, such as: SEO (page name seo-houston.php) Social Media Marketing (page name social-media-marketing-houston.php) Email Marketing (page name email-marketing-houston.php) So, is it better to have these pages in root directory like this: https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com**/seo-houston.php** https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com**/houston-social-media-marketing.php** https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com**/email-marketing-houston.php** OR is it better to group them in subfolder "houston-seo-services" for "extra" keyword and convenience reasons like this: https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com/houston-seo-services/seo-houston.php https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com/houston-seo-services/social-media-marketing-houston.php https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com/houston-seo-services/email-marketing-houston.php Any thoughts will be appreciated. Thanks!

Anyone done SEO with on-page ONLY?
I read this blog post: http://www.seomoz.org/ugc/let-onpage-optimization-change-your-life The author claims they have increased the visitors 50 fold doing on-page seo ONLY. So they just added content, and optimized the site structure. Anyone have seen similar results? Not outreach whatsoever, just adding content to site. Technically, this should be true, article directories has tons of visitors and they were giving out links.

Breadcrumb position SEO impact
Hi all, Our UX designers are working on a new page design, and the breadcrumb position looks somewhat strange - it's almost in the middle of the page. The new page looks like this (the breadcrumb is below the head banner), but it's a showcase page that contains about 150 items. Each of them has a small thumbnail, title, category and short description. They've decided to use the head banner's place and have there all items, grouped in categories that visitors can browse. The breadcrumb menu is at 900 pixels from the top of the page In other words, you have the major part of this page content in front of the breadcrumb menu. Are there any SEO implications in such case? Should we use breadcrumbs on this page if they're not at the top? Thanks,
