An amazing WordPress web design might be an upgrade compared to your previous static html website, but you’re not out of the woods yet. Beyond having a custom design, you’ll need the right tools for the WordPress admin area of your website.
These tools can be custom programmed to meet all of your specific needs, but this can be pricy. The cost-effective alternative to custom development for your website’s SEO campaign is to use what is called a “plugin”.
In this first installment of WordPress Web Design Tips, we want to introduce you to a plugin that will provide you with the admin tools you are going to need when setting up a proper SEO Campaign. Naming pages accordingly, and getting analytics on the keyword that you are targeting per page.
The plugin that we highly recommend for this is Yoast SEO.

If SEO is something that you or your company is interested in for your WordPress website, then this is the plugin to get the job done. It’s updated by its developers on a regular basis, has a 4/5 star rating, and keeps up to date with the latest SEO campaign suggested page elements. Beyond that, it’s free.
If we designed your website, and you selected to have an SEO campaign setup for your company, there is a 95% chance that we used the Yoast SEO plugin for your project. If we did not build your website and you are looking to have it redesigned, including an effective SEO campaign, request an estimate to discuss what we can do for your online marketing and SEO campaign.

Note: In order for this plugin to be as effective as we say it will be, you will also need a monthly SEO campaign. This plugin is an important piece of what we need, but original text and our SEO strategies are still needed to produce the results that your company needs.
