WordPress Seo Simplified With Scribe Plugin
If youre using a blog to promote your nonprofit (or small business), a large part of your strategy is getting found on Google otherwise known as search engine optimization (SEO).
SEO is the practice of improving the traffic to a website from your websites organic results on Google.If you dont quite understand the value of SEO for your nonprofit, ask yourself the following question:
How would sending people to our website precisely when theyre interested in our cause, impact our online fundraising?
Simply stated, SEO is about getting more high-quality leads with your blog.
What is WordPress SEO?
The problem is that most nonprofits know very little about WordPress SEO. What are title tags? What is a meta description? And how important is theprevalenceof keywords, anyhow?
On top of this, blogging is only 1% of your job. You also manage your Facebook Page, organize events, write the email newsletter, and explain what Twitter is to board members.
CopyBlogger SEO
Last month, Brian Clark (@CopyBlogger) announced the Scribe WordPress SEO plugin (yes, that is an affiliate link). I purchased the plugin as soon as it was announced for four reasons:
I write 12-20 blog posts a month.
About 30% of my clients find me through search. Getting higher rankings on Google means more business.
My time is extremely valuable. Amen, if SEO can be streamlined.
Brian Clark is a leading authority on SEO copywriting and publishes CopyBlogger. In short, smart cookie.
The Scribe SEO WordPress plugin is not free, so I wouldnt recommend it if youre only writing 2-3 posts a month or have SEO expertise. I also wouldnt recommend it if your primary goals for blogging do not include ranking higher in Google searches.
If you are interested in Scribe, Ive included a few screen shots of how I used it for this blog post.
