7 Steps to Optimizing WordPress Video Tutorials

I’ve been using WordPress since November 2006 and loved every minute of it. Through the brilliant, free (open source) WordPress software, I’ve been able to garner upwards of 60 percent of my site traffic from the search engines alone (primarily Mr. Google). So I’ve collected the basic tweaks and tips I’ve used in these free WordPress video tutorials called 7 Steps to Optimizing WordPress.

By no means is this comprehensive, but a collection of the simple, yet effective techniques I use and coach clients to do as well. In all the video tutorials are about 30 minutes total. Each one if less than 5 minutes, so you can breeze through them pretty fast. For your convenience, I’ve included links and snippets of the things I mention on the videos below.
