Yoast: Been saying this for years: The “New” SEO Secret Weapon http://t.co/TkpAVjpj via @copyblogger ReTweet Reply

I have built and maintain quite a few WordPress plugins, read the latest on those plugins and other WordPress plugins here!

Use Gravity Forms to submit custom post types

In my previous post I explained how I used the Types plugin to create a new custom post type. That custom post type will be used to display a table of supported themes for my WordPress SEO plugin, and is therefor called wpseo-theme. Now the trick here is that I want users to be able [...]

Types WordPress plugin – Easy Custom Post Types

I’ve long wanted to create a database of themes that support my SEO plugin and never came up with a manageable way of doing that. When my buddy Amir from WPML emailed me about their two new plugins, Types and Views, it took me a while to grasp what they did. Turns out I’m daft [...]

On WordPress Dashboard Widgets

I was one of the first plugin developers to add a dashboard widget to your dashboard when you installed one of my plugins. I’m hoping people will follow me in doing the reverse as well. While it generates traffic, it doesn’t generate sales. Let me show you. When I added mine, in the beginning, it [...]

WordPress SEO Plugin Theme Integration Guide

Theme authors come in two different shapes and sizes: those who integrate SEO “functionality” into their themes and those who don’t. If you’re in the camp of integrating SEO functionality into your theme, you’ve got yet another choice to make: do you “yield” for site owners that have an SEO plugin installed, disabling your own [...]

Sending Reliable Email with Postmark

Reliable email delivery is important to your business: your website probably has a contact form for hiring inquiries; your web application(s) rely on email for interaction with your clients, heck, you might even rely on your server to send email for e-commerce transactions. If those emails do not reliably reach you or your (prospective) customers, [...]

Questions and Answers – Google+ edition

In honor of the new Yoast Google+ page, I’ve taken questions there which I’ll answer here, so everyone can benefit. Do you think the increased number of metatags released by Google are good for webmasters and the web, or just making things more complicated for the amateur so only those that can afford SEO consultancy [...]

(Collaboratively) Translating Yoast Plugins

I’ve been bugged for over 2 years now by people who wanted me to make it possible to translate my plugins into their language. Only a few of my plugins so far have had proper internationalization options, mostly due to me being lazy busy with other stuff. This is now changing, rapidly, though! Last friday [...]

WordPress SEO by Yoast, version 1.0

Yay!!! It’s there. After almost a year of coding, I dare say that my WordPress SEO plugin is finally to be called stable. That doesn’t mean there are no more bugs left to squash: I wish. It does mean though that I now strongly believe that it’s safe to run on smaller and bigger sites [...]

Social Buttons: Adding them to your site & Tracking them

I’ve had a lot of questions recently (like literally, several a day) on how I implemented the social buttons in WordPress, whether I was using a plugin or using a theme. First of all I’m glad to see all of you noticing my social buttons section so much. Second, I’d love to share with you [...]

All In One SEO Pack to WordPress SEO Migration

So you’ve made the decision and want to migrate from All In One SEO Pack to my WordPress SEO plugin. It seems some people are afraid of taking the big leap. It’s actually fairly easy although it will be partly manual work. You won’t have to rewrite the title or description for any of your [...]
