Easy way to make a mini silo in Wordpress
- SEO |
Somewhere I stumbled upon a tag I hadn't heard of in wordpress.
Adding the tag to the html of your post automatically spilts it into more than one page.
Your theme will put page links (1 2 3 4...) at the bottom of the post.
This is really useful for easily splitting up long posts and could get visitors to click over to the next page, thus, reducing your bounce rate.
Another benefit is that all your pages will show up as sub-directories of the first page.
e.g.: mainpage/ | mainpage/1/ | mainpage/2/ | mainpage/3/
effectively, this creates sort of a miniature silo branching off of the post. As far as any searchbot is concerned, these are all individual pages. And they can all transmit their own link juice to whatever pages they link to.
Apparently, there used to be a button to add this tag in the visual editor of wordpress, but they took it out.
You can add it back (it will show up after the 'more' button) by adding the following code to the functions.php file of your theme.

$tmp_buttons = array_slice($mce_buttons, 0, $pos+1);
$tmp_buttons[] = 'wp_page';
$mce_buttons = array_merge($tmp_buttons, array_slice($mce_buttons, $pos+1));
}
return $mce_buttons;
