Free SEO wordpress themes – SEO friendly templates

Here are the best ever Wordpress themes that are SEO friendly.(Updated on Aug 2008)

No messy tweaks and work around SEO techniques. These themes have been tested(code validated) for stability – and SEO friendliness.

I can assure you that they are good for the search engines and the spiders will love them. Many of them are focused on content and simplicity and may not carry unnecessary frills like flash and Ajax. And no fancy stuff too. Just pure search engine love!

The following SEO metrics were taken into consideration when ranking the themes.

• Highlighting content.
• Onsite optimization.
• CSS/XHTML validation.
• Unique SEO friendly page titles.
• SEO friendly layout.
• Optimum coding.
• Look and feel

Steps to completely optimizing these Wordpress themes

Step 1 – Download and install these themes and activate them (as per the general rules)

Step 2 – Though all of them are generally good on SEO, I recommend you also use the 24 must have plugins on them so that you get the edge over others. Remember that million others may also use the themes, so you have to make a difference.

Step 3 – Ensure that you follow the “SEO for Wordpress guide” and change your “yet another wordpress installation” into “super charged SEO blog”
