WP Social SEO Booster IS My New Best Friend - I See Stars!

Confession: I’ve fallen out of love!


You know yourself, seeing Star Ratings in the Google SERPs catches your own eye.


And so it goes for everyone else, using Google.


Star Ratings are the new best friend for anyone with a website and wanting more traffic and potential customers.


And Star Rating add credibility which is an influencing factor in Sales.


I fell out of love with Author hReview and found a new love to replace her – and she’s even better so read on.


Why Author hReview Is Rubbish?


  • Ongoing (and high priced) 6 monthly renewal subscription.

  • In comparison to my new love, I personally think Author hReview worked poorly

  • The support was quite sporadic and almost a pick and choose to who got answered by the author, Hesham Zebida.

  • Updates are few and far between

  • While I found Author hReview a shiny object to start, the polish waned.

Enter the SEO Booster Review


What I fell in love with first was the value for money, given SEO Booster was only $24.00 which is more than half the price of Author hReview AND that’s for an Unlimited License.


Yep, you heard that right, use it on all your websites!


 



And it does far more than the limited functionality of Author hReview too.


Check these and smile – I’d URGE you to read each and every line because of the benefit to YOUR website and rankings:


  • Here’s the first bargain – Full Unlimited Multisite and Developer’s License Included

  • Google Structured Data aka Rich Snippets (Microdata / Markup)
    • Automatically implements the Rich Snippets Tagging Markup for all of your Content.

    • This is far more powerful than the feeble attempt of Author hReview

    • SEO Booster gives you the ability for your users to also Vote on the content itself.

    • Gauge what content is popular and others that aren’t.

    • Added Rich Snippet features include the special mark-up tags for Product Reviews, Products, Recipes, Software, Videos, Events as well as People and your Business

    • All the Rich Snippet goodness can be General settings as well as per post/page/content too


  • Google Authorship
    • Seamlessly integrates Google Authorship for Single and Multi-Author blogs.

    • You’ll more than likely be able to ditch another Google Authorship plugin like I did


  • Facebook Open Graph
    • Automatically optimizes your Blog for Facebook Open Graph SEO and the New “Graph Search”.

    • Incredibly, SEO Booster integrates with the leading WordPress SEO packages such as Yoast SEO so a small matter of disabling the Facebook Opengraph in these other plugins

      facebook open graphIf you’re not using Facebook Opengraph to it’s full potential, I’m coming over there to slap you![/caption]



  • Twitter Meta Tags
    • Automatically adds the Twitter Meta Tags for increased connections between Google, Twitter, and your content.

    • These new Twitter Cards really are powerful when you see them in action and in your Twitter stream – better Tweet visibility means more eyeballs on your content


  • Increase SEO Rank

  • Increase Site Performance
    • Includes HTML5 boilerplate .htaccess Optimizations for better site performance.

    • I was dubious on this site performance claim since already running WP Supercache and doubly doubtful this HTML5 Boilerplate would even be compatible.

    • I was wrong and I visibly noticed page loading performance as well as gaining additional security, through the .htaccess


  • Star Rating System
    • Includes a Star Rating System with Google Rich Snippets integrated.

    • The Voting, as I already mentioned, gives Google further Social clues to content popularity – Good!


  • Image Optimizer
    • Optimizes all your images for better site performance automatically.

    • I personally don’t use this feature since it’s 3rd party and requires a round trip, outside the site.

    • I did test it and found a number of times it failed, presumably due to connectivity problems

    • I’ll stick with EWWW Image Optimizer from The WordPress Repository


  • For All Skill Levels
    • Kudos to the designers here.

    • It can be ultra-simple for a someone reasonably unfamiliar with WordPress and has the built smarts to be tweaked and fine-tuned by the most seasoned website owner


  • For Everyone
    • If you own a WordPress website, this is for you.

    • There’s no downside other than the minor cost and the upshot is all positive. Faster site, Strong Google signals, know the great content and have an all encompassing Rich Snippet powerhouse.


Strong social signals Social and SEO have joined the same team. You can now see why YOU need Social signals too[/caption]


Thanks For Sticking Around This Far Down


You know I won’t spray you with rubbish.


One thing I didn’t mention was I did find the purchase to be cumbersome.


I know my way around a website and, I have to admit, the purchase loop just lost me – lost 1/2 a Rating Star for the crap purchasing interface.


I ended goodness knows where. I eventually figured things out by going through all the emails and locating the actual Support Area.


Jeez, I detest JVZoo products normally but the minor cost and huge website benefit made the hoops worth while and haven’t looked back.


So, What Can You Do Now?


Check out this very cool WordPress plugin for yourself.

Is Masturbation Healthy? Taking Matters Into My Own Hands With Joy

Image
I Did It Myyyy Way! Masturbation is healthy and women can do it too ! Since my marriage fell apart and I ultimately got divorced, I have found myself changing, learning, and growing in ways I didn’t expect. Thanks to my loving friends and family , a solid therapist , and my blog, I have been staring down my past and sorting what it means for my future. Perhaps the most exciting and unexpected change in my life was posing the question: ‘Is Masturbation Healthy?’ and then my discovery of masturbation. I was in a sexless relationship for seven years. My ex-husband loved and still loves me, but he couldn’t be intimate with me, despite our efforts with erectile dysfunction drugs and multiple therapists. He rarely touched me in a sexual way, and when he did, it was clear that he was just waiting for it to be over. This was devastating. Now you would think I would take matters into my own hands and masturbate. Well, I really can’t explain why, but I didn’...
