1. Some Great Tools:
SEO Yoast: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-seo/
It’s like having a SEO expert in your pocket as you’re posting pages. Here’s one of our favorite
SEO checkers. Just plug in your website and the keyword you’re trying to rank for, and it will tell
you how well you’re doing against your competitors. It’s called SEOCentro.

It’s an easy way to get your Google Analytics plugged in. It hasn’t been updated in awhile by the
tech who created it, but it works with the latest WP version.
Want to see how much traffic your site, (or your competitor’s site) is getting?

good idea of where they’re at.

links, order forms, overlays, and more onto your video. http://jvz9.com/c/2653/22651
