		<description>Well, Holly, I am certainly no SEO specialist. I am just hoping to share what I discover as I navigate these waters, in the hopes that other musicians may be able to benefit. 

The technique in this particular post seems awfully elementary. Indeed, once the concept became clear to me, I found a plethora of information online covering this exact topic. However, if I hadn&#039;t went through the trouble of looking at every setting in the WordPress Site Admin panels, and googled for definitions and strategies for each, I never would have known to make the change.

So far, I have not concentrated a whole lot on SEO. I figure I will get deeper into this topic as time goes forward. One thing, however, that I learned today, is that the search engines apparently are believed to rank a given post title higher, if the keywords are at the front of the title, rather than near the end of it. I have not yet looked into this, but this was suggested by a well-respected (indeed dominant) article marketing site.

Perhaps we should share our findings moving forward on these matters. It would seem likely that the two of us can uncover more wisdom together rather than independently.

I&#039;ve not looked for specific SEO plugins for WordPress. Have you checked in the official repository?

Also, I&#039;d be very interested in hearing how you discovered my little site. I&#039;ve been more focused upon getting started than trying to market it in any meaningful way. I&#039;d appreciate the feedback.</description>
