Hey guys, I just installed a new wordpress blog on my hostgator account and I was just curious as to what you guys generally do to it in the beginning to optimize for the best search engine rankings?

Also, are there any MUST HAVE plugins?

    Unique Content, good structure, categories/articles w/ relevant and RELATED KEYWORDS

    Don't focus so much on HTML/Syntax/Metatags etc. and other "10 years ago" SEO things..but see the broader picture of your site and what topics it covers. See it from a site visitor's point of view - get an idea how relevant your site to your topic is.

    Most important is to provide quality word content/ information.

    WordPress comes with several built in search optimization tools such as:

    Permalinks (what another weblogger will use to link to your article),blogrolls, pingbacks and trackbacks. These help you link to other people and also helps them link to you. So make use of all these.

    You should focus first of the content of your blog and then familiarize basic SEO strategies, then optimize.
