   Is there any special techniques that can be used to optimize a wordpress blog on my server for SEO. One issue I see is no way to change the title tags on each page, where it seems to take the blog name for the home page.
   I have several hundred 600+ inbound links.
   I have pinged Technorati manually and used pingoat as well as pingomatic every time I add a new blog.
   There is plenty of content, about 30 articles.
   What else can I do? What else should I do to optimize my blog?

   Amari,

   Thanks for the question. It sounds like you’re off to an excellent start. We use Wordpress here and use a plugin called “Wordpress Multi URI Ping” http://mani.wordpress.com. It covers the pings for us automatically. We also ping the list at the end of this post.

   I’ll assume that you are regularly updating the posts on the blog, every 2 or 3 days. The other main recommendation I have is for you to post comments on other blogs. That will increase your traffic organically which is exactly what Technorati, Google, etc. are looking for.

   Please feel free to contact me directly: chris at msco dot com if you would like to discuss your SEO needs further.

   Good Luck,
   Chris

   SEO for MSCO November UPDATE:

   I’m pleased with the growth of the site, but we haven’t broken into that coveted 100,000 Alexa traffic rank- Yet. I’ve had a secret target of breaking into the 100,000 by year’s end. (Please don’t tell Mark, it’s a secret!) I’m going to try a few more ideas to make that happen, but the BtoB arena tends to slow at year’s end so I’m hoping I can make it happen. This week’s average of 126,819 is very encouraging. I just need a few hundred links to the blog and then…
