Ok so this is the easiest step in the world and I probably shouldn’t even cover it, but I put it in my plan thus I will at least make a quick note about it. Tagging your posts is useful for several reasons 1) it helps places like technorati know what your blog is about, 2) it gives google several more pages of content to look through (even if it does contain duplicate excerpts), and 3) it increases your keyword density on every page.
I’m too lazy really to figure out what keywords I want to use to tag my posts, so I use a super nifty plugin called simple tags. With simple tags I just click a button (click the yahoo one the rest suck) and it scans my content and gives me a list of clickable suggested tags. Look for good longtail tags, not short one worders.
Simple tags has the added bonus of automatically giving you a related posts plugin built in which is great for internal linking which SEO Zombie talks about at his blog.
Anyway I know this one was short but every little bit helps in this game.

So, thanks for this article, maybe somebody thinks this it is very easy, but I am just a beginner, so it doesn’t seems easy to me. I have already learnt some information about tagging, and your post also helped me a lot, so now I am going to read your other posts.
i have been blogging too but not yet in a point of earnings thousands of dollars per month. hope i could reach that someday.

It’s is nice information.Thanks for sharing information with us……………………
Nice info that for sharing.
I know that I tag my post manually because I already know the related terms of my post. Most of my post are just about the same so I really don’t have a huge problem with it. This is good to know even though it is simple though, nice post.
This is very helpful indeed.. I’m new to SEO, This is just what i need..
