WordPress and SEO 101

WordPress and SEO 101

If you’ve been reading this blog long, you’d know that I am a big WordPress fanboy.  I truly believe that it is THE BEST platform out there to create sites with, and I also believe that every parish site should be using it to set up their  parish website.

Why?

Well, aside from being free it’s also:

  • Super easy to install
  • There is a slight learning curve, but once learned you will find that it is extremely easy to use.
  • You can basically do anything that you want with it through it’s use of plugins.
  • It’s super easy to be SEO compliant (meaning that search engines will love you).
  • You can bring in other people to wirte blog posts, etc.
  • You can build an amazing community (like ours).
  • It’s easy to change the theme of your site.
  • You can integrate social media easily.
  • The list goes on…

Because of that, I wanted to give the member community a video of an hour-long consulting session that I did with a client that gives a great overview of WordPress.
