Description
Even if you care about search engine optimization, your WordPress site will quite likely still have
potentials for an even better optimization. One very interesting area is regarding the many archives
of WordPress, which are feared by some because of their potential to create internal duplicate
content. In the best case, if a search engine finds the same pieces of content on several pages of
a site, many of these pages will be ignored. In the worst case the recent algorithmic updates of
Google (aka ‘Panda update’) make the situation much worse: if a site contains many such weak pages
Google might decide to derank the complete site. Either case is undesirable. A very straightforward
approach to deal with this is to make your WordPress archives as individual as possible. The basic
steps to do this are shown in the article Five WordPress tricks for individualized content .
SEO Content Control is the dashboard to help you with this kind of ‘Panda’ issues. It helps you to
keep track, which of your posts have too little content, and shows, where an excerpt or a meta description
is missing. You get it all at a glance in a neat summary with red, yellow and green colors.
SEO Content Control will be your tool to get rid of poor pieces of content. Your users will
find your blog more attractive, and the search engines as well. Just try it out!
