Thanks for linking to some other posts from this post. I’ve read a lot articles now which i had missed. I had feelings to share in comment of each article but i didn’t leave any cause that may make you think that i’m leaving too much comments to keep my banner till the next month. :D :( anyway, i’m using all in one seo pack. While using it, do i have to or is it better to manually put meta tags and descriptions in the editor on code mode?
@Aminul Islam Sajib, It’s okay and I love regular comments. Use all in one SEO pack and you can use it to add special meta title and description for your each blog post. If you don’t do it, the post will generate meta by default.
Excellent compilation of information! I just retweeted this.
You did a fantastic job =)
