Keyword Statistics WordPress Plugin Review

Mar 21, 2010 by Shivendu Madhava

With this plugin you can optimize your WordPress blog for search engines.It can automatically generate meta informations (like keywords and description for example) needed for the search engine optimization (SEO) of your blog.

The Keyword-Statistics-Plugin checks the content of a post or a page for keyword density (single words and optionally 2- and 3 word phrases; for each the 1-10 most commonly used can be displayed).It can update its informations automatically while the author is writing his content in a variable interval (every 1-10 seconds) or manually by clicking on a button.The script comes with english and german stopwords, which optionally can be filtered out before calculating the keyword densities.Moreover the commonest keywords are extracted in a list as a META keywords suggestion.Based on this list a META description can be created and automatically set.So the plugin can be used to do the on-page part of your SEO strategy.Below is the screen shot of Keyword Statistics options  page.

Features:

• Keyword density statistics about the usage of single keywords and keyphrases (2- and 3-words)
• Setting an individual title for each page and post
• META keywords will be set automatically based on the page content
• META description generated from content based on the keyword statistics
• Page-specific control of robots META
• Generation of Canonical URLs – also for all kinds of content aggregation (lists with last posts, archive, tag, category and author including pagination)
• Controls the index/follow settings of the content aggregations
• Prevents urls resulting in a not found response (404) from indexation
• Configuration of ODP, Yahoo! Directory and ARCHIVE (archiving of the content for search engines like google but also at archive.org) META

The SEO-relevant meta-information (meta keywords, meta description and the robots meta-tag) will be generated – and served – only for pages and posts which are saved after plugin installation. You have to open and save an older post or page if you want to generate the meta data for the particular content. For now there is no way to do this automatically.

The administrator can allow ordinary authors to change META informations or not. Even if changing is disallowed an author can see the keyword density and can be guided from the statistics while he is writing the content. He can do the on-page search engine optimization incidentally by knowing which keyword density should be reached. This makes SEO easier for authors.

The WordPress-Plugin comes with a configuration-page for the administrator, who can change default-values for the language, switch the status of the keyword-filter and set-up the user-interface for authors. You can make the fields for the page-description and the meta-keywords editable for normal authors or let the tool generate these informations so they can bring the writing into focus. Administrators can always change the suggested values and settings for the robots (index and follow presettings; for both aggregations and pages). WordPress only serves embedded meta-description and the used keys, if these values could be extracted by the plugin for a specific article.
