Attract Readers Coming Back With Upcoming Posts

by Bey Luen on February 4, 2009

in WordPress

I always think about how to increase number loyalty readers and how to convert one-time visitors into subscribers. In this post, I’d like to review Upcoming Posts which will create a widget which shows all of your scheduled posts to notice your readers for coming back some time in the future.

As a blogger, I always like to plan what are the topics I’m going to publish at least a few days in advanced. With the use of Upcoming Posts, I am equipped with the ability to show the excerpt of future posts in my blog. It will help to convert or increase your readership if they’re interested in future topics or posts.

Akismet

Akismet checks your comments against the Akismet web service to see if they look like spam or not and lets you review the spam it catches under your blog’s “Comments” admin screen.

Download Akismet

What we like: You no need to configure anything except API key to make the plugin working.
What we dislike: You need to enter API key to activate the plugin. It could include more feature such as CAPTCHA to fight with spammy comments.

7 Top WordPress SEO Plugin To Boost Blog Traffic

Here is the list of 7 top WordPress SEO plugin which will resolve your SEO issue and boost your blog traffic!

Redirection

Redirection is a WordPress plugin to manage 301 redirections, keep track of 404 errors, and generally tidy up any loose ends your site may have. This is particularly useful if you are migrating pages from an old website, or are changing the directory of your WordPress installation.

Redirection Homepage
Download Redirection

My Opinion: 301 redirects are used to permanently move a site to a new location. Search engines do not apply penalties to 301 redirects the way they apply them to many other types of redirects. Usually when we do 301 redirects, we need to create .htaccess file and add the rule inside the file. This plugin simplify the process and let us define the rule very easily without any knowledge on .htaccess.

In my previous post published a few days back, I’ve show you the ultimate ping list used in this blog and how to create your own ping list. Today I’m going to tell you some major flaws in WordPress pinging system. In fact, if you’ve been using WordPress for a long time, then your blog probably has been banned from ping services by now and you don’t even aware of it.

Note: If the blog is set to be visible to normal human visitors but blocked search engines in the privacy settings, then you won’t have any issue as the WordPress engine will not ping the services upon blog posting.
