WordPress is one of the leading Search Engine Optimisation enhanced blogs that you can choose to use. It is a world leader. It is simple and easy to use, looks great and above all is 90% Search Engine Optimization ready out of the box.

This is part of a series of tip articles just about using WordPress for maximizing on Search Engine Optimisation.

Tip: Make sure the blog is on YOUR site

So often we are asked about adding a blog on another website such as Blogger or WordPress.com which provides free blog hosting and has a high PR rank.

If you are using your blog to enhance your SEO then you HAVE to place your blog on your web site – it cannot exist on a different website.

Do not even think about using a sub-web such as http://www.blog.mygreatsite.com. Why would you use a sub web anyhow unless if you want a cool blog URL.

Sub webs are part of your internet site but they are confusing from an SEO perspective. If you want to have the blog content 100% linked up with your website then make sure it is off a sub folder and NOT a sub web for example : http://www.myhappysite.com/blog.

Placing your blog on a sub web will not give you the same SEO advantage as having them as a sub-folder on your website. Sub webs may be treated different by different search engines – the result outcome will be unclear.

If your blog is presently hosted on blogger.com or wordpress.com then you should think about to move it as soon as manageable if you want to enhance your SEO position.

One fundamental thing to watch out for if you move a large blog to your site (with lots of content), that if you are currently ranking for a number of keywords, then your ranking can be gravely affected after you have added your blog content.

We have experienced client ranking drop after adding a lot of new content in the form of a blog to a clients sites. Adding a blast of new content ‘dilutes’ your current site content if the new content is NOT Search Engine Optimization optimized for the keywords that you want to rank for. SEO Optimize the content before making it live to avoid this dilution process. Taking the time to do this BEFORE you add it to your site will make a big difference to your existing ranking position.
