Read that article on Good lies told by seo frauds</description>

		<description>I see. But your #8 option here said use title tag and meta description tag. I am kind of confused. Since you said Google does not treat it as an important feature and you don&#039;t follow it either then how come it&#039;s in the list? :)</description>

		<description>Tommy: for #2, try using &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.arnebrachhold.de/2005/06/05/google-sitemaps-generator-v2-final&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this plugin&lt;/a&gt; for wordpress. It creates sitemap for your Wordpress. As for #3, register yourself with Google &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/webmasters/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Webmaster tools&lt;/a&gt;, upon filling up information about your blog, you shall see activity of google bot on your site.</description>

		<description>Good list. But from my point of view i think #10 should be #1. Why? Read the following article:

http://blogsandbucks.com/search-engine-optimization-tips-and-tricks-part1/

I liked # 4 and # 8 too. But i wonder why you are not using meta description in your blog?</description>
