What You Need To Know About Using Wordpress

By Dougherty Trent


Have you given Wordpress a try in the past, but wondered if there might be more to it than you realized? Perhaps you are interested in learning about new and exciting features that make Wordpress even more helpful to bloggers. If so, this article should prove extremely interesting and valuable.

Be sure to add an author biography to each blog post on boards where many bloggers are posting. In this way, each blogger gets proper credit and it is easier for readers to know who posted what at a glance. Furthermore, readers will tend to stay on your page if they can get all the information they need in one place.

Don't forget to spellcheck your WordPress story. WordPress makes that easy through a spellcheck button on the editor itself. Look for a button that has the letters "ABC" on it. It'll then scan your post for spelling and common grammatical errors. Check any word or phrase that has a red squiggly line under it.

Always upgrade WordPress as soon as possible. Hackers will target WordPress because of the large amount of users. Updating WordPress as soon as updates are available can be on of your most valuable security tasks. The longer you wait to update, the better opportunity for hackers to get into your business.

Include your SEO-based keywords in the titles of your posts. In fact, make them the first few words of the title. For example, if your key phrases is "best pizza in Toronto", you could create a title such as "For the Best Pizza in Toronto, Only Spring Water Will Do!"

Look into other themes for your WordPress blog. Sure WordPress comes preinstalled with a few excellent themes, but there are many more options out there. Many are free and then there are premium themes as well. These premium themes are very well designed and let you add more advanced aspects to your blog with ease, such as e-commerce plugins.

Some visitors may want to share one of your posts with friends or family members through their email. Unless you have a plugin in specifically for that purpose, the user may not find the process very easy. Therefore, install one ahead of time so that your visitors are not frustrated.

Never use the term "admin" or anything similar for your username. Bots will attack your blog if you make your username ADMINISTRATOR or ADMIN. It puts your site's security at risk. Look at each individual page on your site and change admin or administrator usernames. Choose something else.

You can easily get rid of external text formatting in WordPress. You may need to copy text from Word. Many times, it inserts characters that don't display properly, even with "Paste from Word" option. Select the "Show/Hide Kitchen Sink" option to show another row of buttons. Highlight the problematic text. Click on a button called "Remove Formatting" to fix it.

If you find that writing new posts is cluttered and confusing because of all the stuff on your page, clean it up! Use the Screen Options link to choose what shows up on the composition page and what remains hidden. Many of your plugins may add content you don't want, so remove it there.
