XML Sitemap PHP script
Recently, while working on the site for my father in law (in Dutch), I wanted to create an XML sitemap for the many publications on his site, that are downloadable PDF’s. I regularly add PDF’s to his site too, and since I’m a tad bit lazy I don’t want to keep updating the XML sitemap. So [...]
XML Sitemap in the WordPress SEO plugin
There have been some questions after the release last weekend of the new XML sitemaps implementation in WordPress SEO. Let me try to address most of those questions in one post as well as explain the ideas behind it. The basic idea behind the rebuild of the XML sitemap functionality was simple: XML sitemaps needed [...]
HTML Sitemap for WordPress
An HTML sitemap (as opposed to an XML sitemap) is often mentioned as being useful for SEO. They certainly are if you use them wisely (and especially Bing seems to like them at times), but I like them even more for the fact that users like them a lot. There’s plenty of plugins out there [...]
Debugging your XML sitemap with an XSL Stylesheet
When you’re developing XML sitemaps, no matter on what platform, it’s pretty hard to debug them sometimes to be proper XML. You have to validate all the time and you can’t do a quick “glance” over to see whether your sitemap has the URL’s you were expecting. As mentioned before I’m working on my WordPress [...]
Video SEO: A technical guide
As mentioned in a previous post, recently I have started playing with Video SEO, and found it to be a part of SEO I quite like. It’s a very technical trade so far, so apologies for all the code in the article lying in front of you, but there just is no way around it: [...]
Video SEO and WordPress
I’ve been testing a lot with video SEO lately, and I’ll be doing a whole lot more of that testing, as video SEO seems to be a nice area to play in. Now I noticed my buddy Mark Robertson over at ReelSEO did a short, but nice interview with Matt Cutts on video sitemaps: Now [...]
Web Designer Mag should fix its SEO
Ok I just had to post this, as it’s too funny. I got a Google Alert this afternoon for this post, which mentioned one of my plugins as being listed by Web Designer Magazine. So, I Googled them, as the post didn’t link to them, and got this result: Notice something? I know I did: [...]
Why you should not use XML Sitemaps
First of all: I do want you to use Google Webmaster Tools. It’s an incredible useful toolbox, so please, please use it. If you’re not using it at the moment, check out my post on how to use Google Webmaster Tools. I do think though, that XML Sitemaps (whether it be Google sitemaps or otherwise), [...]
Managed WordPress Hosting
Sometimes you can’t be bothered to do upgrades for a WordPress site yourself. You need to be 100% sure that it’s up, that critical updates are done immediately as they come available and that uptime is close to 100%. That’s when you need managed WordPress hosting (as opposed to cheaper but less guaranteed normal WordPress [...]
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 [...]
