I just ran into an old post (dated 3/14/2007) on Search This, about taking WordPress from install to pimped out.
WordPress SEO
The writer (Golgotha) gives 11 WordPress tips and tricks, to take your blog to the next level, if you will. But the wordpress plugin, All In One SEO, pretty much takes care of alot of what he mentions in his article, including title tags, meta tags, and the no index of archives, among other things.
I wonder how many bloggers use All In One SEO, do they think there is a better alternative, or is this the holy grail of WordPress seo.
Reader Question(s)
If you use the All In One SEO wordpress plugin, share your thoughts below on how this plugin has improved your blog, and how you have been able to improve your rankings in the search engines because of it.
If you don’t use it, why not?

I use all in one seo and not to its full ability I might add.
There is no better out of the box alternative in my opinion…other than paying big bucks to have it done professionally.
This is an excellent SEO plugin for the WordPress blogging platform. I also really enjoy using the category base killer to remove the /category/ part in permalinks and the yet another relevant post plugin to provide relevant\related posts underneath every post; it’s a great way to boost your internal linking. You should try those two out, make sure if you use the category base killer to 301 redirect old urls!
AP:
I’ve heard of a newer one out called Platinum SEO, but just havn’t had the time to look into it, so for now i will stick with All In One SEO.
