How can it optimised your blog pages?
- No images 'call' on pages - Not like some of the LinkWidgets used.
- The 'call' for javascripts/iframe from 3rd party widget providers.
- Specify pages - Strong inter-page relation.
- Specify location for easy indexing - Under posts not under comments.
- Specify the amount of links in every post - posts internal/external links balance.
- Help in lowering your bounce rate - Visitors are most likely to click on related articles links.
We will not go to detail why this tweak is search engine friendly, because like the above, says it all. It is some of the many features that you can do in making your blog pages more search engine and user friendly. The point here is to keep your web visitors to keep on reading your posts/articles, and not just by reading your current articles. By doing this, it makes the relation between page browsing more effective and conveniently to users. If not, they will probably miss out any of your relevant pages. In another way, you will gain more exposure and quality visits and lowering your visitors bounce rate.
