AdSense and SEO for WordPress
If you're a WordPress user, Jim Westergren's article on configuring WordPress for maximal search engine optimization (SEO) is a must-read:
The only thing I disagree with Jim about is the addition of a Google Sitemap to your site. It's actually very easy to do with the Google Sitemap Generator plugin and it will even produce a human-readable version of the sitemap just like the one shown here (assuming your web browser knows how to transform XML files into HTML, which modern browsers do).
After you've read his posting, be sure to read these relevant postings I made about using AdSense with WordPress:
- How to Get Relevant AdSense Ads (Especially for Bloggers)
- The AdSense-Ready WordPress Blog series:
- Google Sitemaps 101
Actually, I noticed that I never finished the WordPress series, there was supposed to be a fifth part! I'll do that shortly.
Anyhow, give yourself a half hour and read all those postings and you'll have a pretty good grasp of what it takes to make WordPress both SEO-friendly and AdSense-friendly.
