How to Make Sure Your Post is SEO'd Well

Now you should see (you may have to scroll down, my theme automatically takes me once I click on SEO "Check" to) this area in your post editor-

Using your Jaaxy tool, and/or your WA Keyword tool, or whatever keyword tool(s) you use, select a keyword that will be the best focus for your post, and key it in here. For this post I used "Super Foods".

Okay. Now your focus keyword has been entered.

Once you have your focus keyword entered, your editor's SEO Check feature can go to work for you as you go through the remaining steps, which I will show you on the next 2 pages.

Hi Marvin -

Great post - thank you! I don't see that on my All in One SEO pack either. Do you get that feature if and when you upgrade to Pro Version?

Thanks, John. No, I don't have the Pro version of All in One, but my siterubix site (I use for testing stuff) doesn't have All in One installed, and I see the SEO Check feature is NOT in its post editor publishing options section, so I'm making a pragmatic guess of logic that installing All in One has something to do with it showing up.

It appears there may be some digging to do, and perhaps some others can chime in ... why are some people seeing the SEO Check feature, and others are not?

John, refresh the page and read the edited version, first page. The answer is there.

Hey Marvin

Are you using All in One SEO Pack? I don't appear to have this option on any of my WP sites... am I missing something?

Hmmm ... Claire, I do use All in One SEO, but I hadn't noticed this feature myself until after I had installed that plugin. Maybe it is not standard to WordPress, but shows up as part of what All in One SEO does?

But All in One SEO is a free and awesome plugin, so why not just activate it?

Can anyone else chime in on this? Whether or not the SEO Check feature in WordPress editor is contingent upon having All in One SEO?

Hi Marvin
I'm using All in One SEO Pack and it's activated :( I wondered if you were using a different SEO plugin.
I checked all three sites and they all look the same. Maybe I'll go and look at the settings and see if there's a box I've left unchecked somewhere.. will report back :)

Hmmm.. nope, can't see anything that might trigger it in the settings. And Google wasn't much help either. Maybe it's a theme thing?

Claire, I just figured it out. It is a feature provided by the Wordpress Yoast SEO plugin. I just installed that in one of my test sites, and now the SEO Check feature is showing up in the site's post editor int the publication options section, just like the training shows.

Ah, I see! Well, glad we (you) got to the bottom of it! Thanks, Marvin. Maybe I will look into the Yoast plugin and think about switching over. How do they compare, in your opinion?
