Content 2.0 was a beautiful thing when it was born. For the webmaster, it allowed a site to grow on user contributions, providing an endless source of long tail keyword terms.

Others discovered a quick way to slap up a page and get a fast link. It worked well for both parties for a number of years until Panda came along. Then everyone crashed and burned.

In this post, I am gonna talk about a simple keyword optimization technique for WordPress blogs. This piece of blog advice that I am giving away is easy to implement and is an onsite blog optimization technique. Let’s start off with the basics. If you have a blog and you want people to get to your blog from search engines and you want to make some cash online from your traffic, you gotta devise a strategy to make it happen. Although, offsite optimization plays a bigger role while trying to rank your blog better in search engines like Google, a combination of onsite and offsite optimization techniques will help you rank even better.
I optimize my category pages (the pages that show excerpts of all the posts in the category) for certain keywords and I think all bloggers should do the same. Now to optimize the category pages for certain keywords, adding descriptions at the top of the category pages that contain relevant keywords would do some help. The description will always stay on top of the category page and have the keywords that you are targeting and thus would help in SEO. In this post I’ll tell you how to add descriptions at the top of category pages in WordPress.
Here’s another blog advice for you. If you are using All In One SEO pack plugin and are not able to add meta-keywords to category pages in WordPress, I am gonna teach you how to do that in this post. Some of you might argue that meta-keywords are obsolete things. Yes, it is said Google does not give a damn to them but we know Yahoo still uses meta-keywords for sure. Hence, if you want to rank better in Yahoo, you should consider adding meta-keywords to all the pages that you want to show up in Yahoo’s search results. Category Pages are very important pages from SEO point of view, so you need to make them perfectly search engine optimized and that’s exactly what we are going to learn in this post.
