If you are doing a Wordpress blog for professional or search engine optimization purporses, don't let Wordpress actually host your blog. Put your blog on a different host and then just use the Wordpress application there. Blogs at Wordpress' website are sometimes deleted for being too commercial or deemed spammy in content.

Be sure to add an author biography to each blog post on boards where many bloggers are posting. In this way, each blogger gets proper credit and it is easier for readers to know who posted what at a glance. Furthermore, readers will tend to stay on your page if they can get all the information they need in one place.

Remember to make your sidebar as concise and clean as possible. You don't want it to be full of 100 links, ads and buttons. Instead, only put what is important in your sidebar and, if you need more links, put them into submenus which appear when the user mouses over your main menu.

Allow all of the users that visit your site the ability to comment using Facebook. This is a very important tool that will get your name across to hundreds of thousands of people. The Simple Facebook Connect plugin can be used if you want to install this feature on your site.

Learn everything you can about WordPress choices to use it most effectively. For instance, clicking the "kitchen sink" button gets you a multitude of formatting and importing options to distinguish your site. Use this to control a wide variety of formatting elements.

Enable different types of avatars on your website. This will make your site very fun and friendly for the users who visit it. Also, it will allow you to get across your personality in a better way. To find this component, visit the discussion area on your dashboard under settings.

Encourage your users to share your site with their friends, family and loved ones on the top social media sites. Twitter and Facebook are the most optimal sites that come to mind, as this can get your name across to millions of different people. A social sharing plugin can be used to facilitate this.

Having a theme for your WordPress site can make it much more professional. There are plenty of websites that allow you to download themes for free. However, it is very important that you download themes from a trusted source. Not doing so can result in you installing outdated or malicious codes.

Let your users easily share your content via email. This is crucial for the purpose of sharing also, since many users might not have access to Twitter or Facebook at their job but may want to share with their friends your articles. Use a WP-Email plugin to make this happen.

Organize your media library. Sure you can just throw images in there, but it may become overwhelming pretty quickly. Set up your folders from the beginning, even if you do not have content for all of them yet. At later times, when an image is needed, your search time will be greatly reduced.
