SEO Green Version 1.01 updated and some Headspace tutorials

Hey, did you see the SEO Green theme released lately? There were some errors reported from users that made me (well, pushed me) to do the corrections and release a stable version. So here we are. The SEO Green theme has a updated version now.

Here are the issues that were reported.

  • The meta info weren’t getting inserted properly on some sites on installing the headspace plugin – SORTED, We have contacted the plugin developer and fixed the problem. Now, the theme is completely ready for the HeadSpace plugin and it’s advanced features.
  • The Google Analytics tracking code could not be inserted and tracked – SORTED once and for all.
  • The pages links did not update – SORTED once and for all.

If you recall, I insisted that you use the Headspace plugin, and though some users complained about not being able to use it easily, I stand by my word. Please make yourself comfortable with the plugin it will help you a lot.

Anyhow, I understand that the plugin itself is a bit tricky to use for the first time, so here are some tutorials for beginners. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll find how useful it is.

Step 1
Install the plugin and go to the Options > HeadSpace > Page Settings and click on Global Settings.
Enter the blog description and page title here (Leave the tags/keywords column free, we’ll do it later). This is actually the global settings of the meta tags, which will be repeated on every page unless otherwise the individual page has a different setting(info on how to do that …down the page).

Headspace

Step 2
Click on the fifth setting “Posts & Pages”. Enter in the page title and the description.This is the setting that would appear for each pages and individual articles, unless otherwise specified.

Headspace

Step 3
Now go to Modules menu. This is an important option. This menu basically lets you decide what are the options you want to access from the dashboard while writing a post. For instance, when you create a new post, if you have installed All in SEO plugin, you’d get two extra columns beneath that asks you the meta information. Similarly, in headspace you can decide what are the modules that need to appear in the “write post” page.

By default, the modules available are Page Titla, Page Description and Tags (Seen in the green box left). Now you can see a set of disabled modules to the right (in the grey section). Pull and place the modules that you think you need in the writing page. Ex: No Index/ NoFollow will give you two checker boxes in the write page, asking you whether to include the “No Index/ No Follow” info in the meta tag of that particular article. This is extrememly useful if you want certain pages/article not to be indexed by google (to reduce duplicate content/avoid content issues). There are some cool options available there like page specific themes/ page specific plugins, Google Analytics tracking etc. None of them have SEO effect, so I’m not going to tell about them, you may want to tinker and find out. Make sure you save the module order after re aranging them so that they appear on the write page.

Headspace

Step 4
Now go to Manage > Metadata menu.
This is the best part. From this menu you can list out upto 250 of your recent posts. And from the drop down menu on the top, select either the Page description/ Page Title/ Site Decription/ Tags and Keywords of the posts to be displayed.
We are interested only in the page title, site description and the tags. So let’s do it one by one.
Click on any one of the criteria and click the green “refresh” button suggested against each post. Within seconds the page description/tags/title will be auto generated.
Unless you are specific on any article, you can pretty well generate the meta information (tags, description and title) for all the article on your blog in a jiffy. Save the info.

Headspace

Step 5
Now, that’s pretty much about it. All you need to do is to make sure while you write a post, you give a unique page title, description and select the keywords from the ones suggested for each article.

So there you are, install the SEO Green theme and forget about SEOing your blog.

I want to thank Moon Blogger, w3Mixx who helped me with the feedback on using the theme.

And these are the improvements we’ve made in the new version of the SEO Green theme.

  • Added more onsite optimization elements that will make your articles/posts SEO friendly by default. You don’t have to muck around with the codes to tweak them. Leave it to us.
  • Cleaned up the footer to a more cool design.

    My question is: I have recently started a blog with WP about health and nutrition. How do I link a page with another page to an exact point(UL) in the target page instead of just landing at the begining of the target page?
    The reason is because I want to set up a glossary of terms and definitions and I like people to go exactly(UL) where the definition is in my glossary page instead of landing at the top of it and the visitors having to scroll down to find the definition. Is there a widged or plugin for this function? Thanks.
    PS: I just installed the HEADSPACE plugin. it´s awesome!

    Hello Mani:

    I appreciate your well layed-out Headspace tutorial. Upon following these instructions in Step 4, NONE of the page description / tags / title are AUTOGENERATED.

    Thank you in advance for a prompt response,

    Alan, Can you confirm you have –
    1 – Selected the right option from the drop down menu above? Ex:- “Page Title”
    2 – You have clicked the green refresh button on the extreme right of each text field.

    Also, have you been using All in One SEO earlier OR using any other SEo related plugin on the blog now ?

    Mani:
    1. YES
    2. YES

    I will contact you via Skype. Would like to talk about you tutoring me to complete Headspace optimization… to get this thing done. I am in Washington, U.S.A. – PST. It’s 12:41 AM PST / 2:12 PM India.

    Looking forward,
    Alan

    Hello Mani:

    Have been waiting to hear back from you a week now. Hope all is OK.

    I am considering dumping the Headspace plugin due to apparent compatibility issues. As a replacement, I have found http://wpremix.com and http://diythemes.com/thesis as SE optimized THEMES. The concept prompted by each of these competing theme websites is: they incorporate a blog architecture which is SE optimized… along with multiple other design and development advantages and benefits.

    I would very much appreciate a response to my emails… as well as a critical review from you regarding the above at DailySEOBlog.com.

    Looking forward,
    Alan
