In the years since it first appeared in 2003, WordPress has become the most popular platform for self hosted blogs. It is now behind several million sites. Whilst it was initially a platform for blogs it has evolved into a Content Management system which can be made to look and behave as you require without the need for any technical expertise.

Having decided to use WordPress you need to make the most of this by getting the best WordPress Hosting.

It is not true to say that all hosting companies are the same. It is true that most Linux hosting will support WordPress but some hosting companies do not have a system for easy installation and some will not offer support if you experience any issues.

What you need for best WordPress Hosting is a hosting provider which specifically advertises their support for WordPress and also has a good reputation for their service in general and their support in particular.

Without hesitation I can recommend HostGator. Their technical environment is in excess of the minimum required by WordPress and offers suPHP for additional security. You get access to "Quickinstall" which enables you to setup a WordPress installation with one click. Not only that but if you already have a WordPress site hosted elsewhere (including wordpress.com) HostGator will transfer it over for you at no extra cost. HostGator and WordPress are therefore a good combination.

HostGator’s shared web hosting packages include:

  • The facility to pay monthly. Although obviously this costs more that paying 12 – 36 months in advance. With HostGator you are not locked into a contract and can cancel whenever you like.
  • A 45 day Money Back Guarantee – If for any reason you are not happy you can advise HostGator of your wish to cancel the hosting and get a refund of all the money paid.
  • Guaranteed Site Availability – A minimum availability of 99.9% is guaranteed so you will not find that your site is not online except during planned maintenance.
  • Unlimited resources such as storage, bandwidth, email addresses etc. But note that the entry level Hatchling plan is restricted to one domain.
  • The Cpanel control panel for easy management of your sites and extras like a Google Adwords credit (US only).

A major factor in deciding that HostGator offer best WordPress hosting is their support services. The first port of call is their website which answers many frequently asked questions and provides a forum for customer interaction. In the event that you still need help the support team are always available and can be reached by telephone, live chat or email. I always find them to be keen to resolve problems..

HostGator Coupons
HostGator are well known for their coupons. These reduce your first invoice – the amount you pay during the sign-up process. Here are two of the latest coupons you may wish to use:

  • WORDPRESSCP1  – This takes up to $9.94 off the initial payment such that you can sign-up to pay monthly and get the first month for 1c.
  • WORDPRESSCP25  – This knocks 25% off the first payment and therefore the longer you pay for upfront, the more you save. This code will reduce the lowest price to the equivalent of $3.71 per month.

You can then loose your edits by updating the theme (I know I have done this). If you are not comfortable with editing the theme you are stuck with the standard layout, colors, headers etc.
  • If you have more than one site you have to do all this each time and will end up with multiple themes to support.

With a premium theme like the Socrates theme you can have sites that look totally different but each using the same theme. This makes setting and maintaining sites much easier.

The Socrates Theme functions include:

This article is a comprehensive review of the techniques used by the WordPress SEOPressor plugin. If you are not familiar with Search Engine Optimization (SEO), basically, it is the optimizing of the content on your web pages so as to maximize it relevancy with respect to certain targeted keywords in the eyes of search engines. A well optimized web page has the potential to rank higher in search results than a page that is poorly optimized. What is involved in SEO? Several factors such as the keywords targeted, their density in the page copy, where and which tags they appear in to name a few. The SEOPressor plugin claims to automatically help you cover all of these bases so as to maximize your relevancy which, in turn, potentially maximizes your web traffic.

What exactly does the SEOPressor plugin do? Basically, it monitors your blog post and tracks all of the factors that influence your SEO such as the ones mentioned previously. In short, this plugin assigns a quality score or sorts to each post giving it a score between zero and one hundred. It does this by carefully analyzing several things. (more…)

Why On Page SEO is Important

The purpose of the SEOPressor Plugin is to help achieve the best possible On Page SEO. This is an important first step in Search Engine Optimization which, if done well, will make subsequent tasks much easier.
The aim of on page SEO is to ensure that the search engines understand what your pages and posts are about i.e. what search terms they are relevant to. Doing this successfully will enable your site to rank will the fewest possible backlinks. Doing this badly will make it very difficult to get a high ranking even with many backlinks.

What Is the SEOPressor Plugin?

The SEOPressor plugin is a WordPress plugin which installs like any other plugin. There is a minimal amount of confirmation covering what changes you will allow the plugin to make automatically after which you can enter the primary keyword for each page and post that you want to analyze.

How Does the SEOPressor Plugin Work?SEOPressor Plugin

SEOPressor analyzes each page and post and gives it a percentage score for its on page SEO. You can view the scores for all your pages or all posts together but the detail is shown on the Edit Post/Page screen. Here you see the score together with a series of instructions for improving the score.
You simply make the changes suggested, click “update” and see the revised score. The aim being to get as near to 100% as possible. However, it is not good practice to do this at the expense of spoiling the content for your visitors. You should aim for the highest score possible whilst still providing valuable content for your visitors.
 

What Results Can You Expect From the SEOPressor Plugin?

You can expect the SEOPressor Plugin to help you achieve good on page SEO in that the search engines will be clear as to the relevancy of your pages. If you have some very low competition keywords this may be enough to get you onto the search results in a good position but in most cases nothing will happen without generating backlinks. The good thing about using the SEOPressor plugin is that you do this in the knowledge that you will be able to get a high ranking with the minimum possible number of backlinks.

A simple On Page SEO definition is that it is the production of search engine friendly content using the text, tags, links and other elements.  

It is not practical to think that the search engines will find, index and rank your site without there being any need to consider on page SEO. In fact, if you want to get a high ranking in the search results it is essential to consider on page SEO from the outset.
 
Good on page SEO is not about manipulating the search engines, it is simply about structuring content so that the search engines understand its relevancy. If the page is about “red widgets” then the search engine spiders that visit the page need to be clear that this page is highly relevant to the keyword “red widgets” and should therefore be considered for display when that term is searched for. At the same time the content must be valuable to visitors.  On Page SEO Definition
 
Of course the search engine spiders cannot actually understand the content so they are looking for indicators of its relevancy. This involves looking at the content of the title tags, the header tags, the image ALT tags, the links and their anchor text amongst other things. On page SEO can be thought of as like writing so that a six year old can pick up that the content is about “red widgets” but without any understanding of what it means.
 
The fact that the search engines understand the relevancy of the page will not in itself get a high ranking in the search results but it is a vital first step. If the search engines do not understand what the page is about you will struggle to get a high ranking whatever you do off page. 
 
When you are clear about the on page SEO definition and why it is so important, you need to check understand on page seo analysis and put it into practice on every page (or post).
