标题标签 (Title Tags)
Title tags are used in the head section of a web page to communicate your page title better to both search engines and visitors.
标题标签用于网页的顶部，以更好地与搜索引擎和访问者交流您的页面标题。
Title tags help to boost SEO efforts which in-turn can help to boost your overall rankings. The title tag will tell your visitors what the post is about before they click into it. The title tag is generally seen in search engine results as shown below:
注意用于实现meta description和focus关键字的区域，这可以帮助Yoast为您提供SEO建议和任何可能错过的建议。
So what’s the point of meta descriptions? Meta descriptions are what you see in search engine results. They tell you what the website or page content is about before you enter the website as seen in the images below:
包含元描述可以使搜索用户看到您的WordPress帖子。 如果您未指定元描述，则搜索引擎通常会采用第一句话，这可能不太理想，并会诱使用户访问您的网站。 元描述本身不会影响搜索排名，但是它们对于在搜索结果页面中提供号召性用语很重要。
Generally, WordPress will count down the character limit for you when writing your meta description, however if you’re using a Word document you can find out the character limit of your meta description by highlighting them and clicking on the word count at the bottom left hand side of the screen.
固定链接是一种提供清晰，相关内容结构的好方法。
重点关键词短语 (Focus Keyword Phrases)
Keyword phrases are specialized phrases which are used to optimize your pages to send more traffic to them. Key phrases are used as the core key phrase that your page will be searched for and ranked for. Think about what you want your site to be found for.
关键字词组是专用词组，用于优化您的页面以向其发送更多流量。 关键字被用作将搜索您的页面并对其进行排名的核心关键字。 想想您想要找到您的网站的内容。
Focusing on keywords and phrases in these areas and implementing it in the Yoast SEO Focus Keyword section can help to boost your WordPress website’s overall visibility to both users and search engines. Keyword research will be covered in more detail below.
现在，您的图片将与其他关键字信息集成到您的内容中。
Internal linking (or interlinking) is the process of linking one page to another page on your WordPress site. Internal linking holds many benefits, which include:
内部链接(或内部链接)是将页面链接到WordPress网站上的另一页面的过程。 内部链接具有许多好处，其中包括：
- Provides you with on-page SEO benefits 为您提供页面上的SEO好处
- It passes link juice from one page to the next for more post exposure 它将链接汁从一页传递到下一页，以进行更多发布
- It enables more page views which lowers the risk of a ‘high bounce rate’ and increases ‘pages per view’ 它启用了更多页面浏览量，从而降低了“高跳出率”的风险，并增加了“每个视图页面数”
- It allows search engines to crawl through and index your articles more effectively 它使搜索引擎可以更有效地检索和索引您的文章
To link one page (or post, the process is the same) to the next, all you need to do is add a hyperlink or anchor text to a word that relates with the page you’re linking it to. To insert a hyperlink, you can follow these steps:
要将一个页面链接(或发布，过程相同)，只需将超链接或锚文本添加到与要链接到该页面的单词相关的单词上即可。 要插入超链接，您可以按照以下步骤操作：
1. Go to the page you’re looking to link to and copy the URL of the blog post.
链接WordPress内容中的页面和帖子确实非常容易，并且最重要的是它可以帮助您的用户并从您的SEO中受益。

Yoast SEO is one of the most popular WordPress SEO plugins, it is free and is used daily by millions of WordPress users around the world. Yoast SEO offers users with on-page analysis, proper social optimization and many other features to help with SEO. The reasons why Yoast SEO is so popular is because:
关键字研究通常在项目开始时进行。 关键字是被人们用来搜索的搜索引擎项目的关键词 。 在研究要用于WordPress网站的关键字时，请务必考虑以下提示：
Don’t just use Google Keyword Planner (which is one of the most popular tools for keyword research) for your keyword research. There are many other tools to help with this process, check out some alternatives here.
不要只将Google关键字规划师(这是用于关键字研究的最受欢迎的工具之一)用于关键字研究。 还有许多其他工具可以帮助完成此过程， 请在此处查看一些替代方法 。
- Don’t just choose the best keywords or keyword phrases based on popularity, the more popular the keyword is, the more competition you’ll have to compete against. Instead, try using words which have low to medium competition. Although they may not be as popular, you have a higher chance of being seen than against those in the high competition range. 不要仅根据受欢迎程度选择最佳的关键字或关键字词组，关键字越受欢迎，您就必须竞争越多。 相反，请尝试使用竞争程度较低或中等的单词。 尽管它们可能不那么受欢迎，但与竞争激烈的竞争对手相比，您有更高的机会被人们看到。
- Don’t just settle for generic keywords. Broad match and long tail keywords are also great options to use because they give you more direct search results for visitors to find your website. 不要仅仅满足于通用关键字。 广泛匹配和长尾关键词也是很好的选择，因为它们可以为您提供更直接的搜索结果，以使访问者可以找到您的网站。
Examples of the three different types of keywords include:
三种不同类型的关键字的示例包括：
- Generic: camera, phone, clothing 通用：相机，电话，衣服
- Broad Match: Canon camera, HTC phone, red clothing 广泛匹配：佳能相机，HTC手机，红色服装
- Long Tail Keywords: NX5 Series Canon Camera, HTC Desire 5 mobile phone, size 2 red baby onesie clothing. 长尾关键词：NX5系列佳能相机，HTC Desire 5手机，红色婴儿连体衣尺寸2。
Use keywords that best match what your page is about. There’s no point trying to use the words ‘men’s clothing’ if you’re selling young boy’s clothing. Always use appropriate keywords for the appropriate pages.
除了Google关键字规划师之外，您还可以使用Google Search Console中的“搜索分析”报告来更好地评估人们在搜索结果中找到您的网站或点击进入您的网站所使用的关键字。 Search Analytics为您提供了大量的关键字数据，可用于进一步增强页面。
