WordPress Posts vs. Pages and SEO

WordPress Posts vs. Pages and SEO

Have you ever paid attention to how your WordPress posts perform in the SERPs compared to your pages?

I am often asked which is better for SEO, so I decided to create a video revealing my opinions and discussing what has worked best with my newest WordPress website.

I’d love to hear your stories too.  I’ll see ya in the comments!

  1. Thanks for the video. i have 2 question about wordpress:
    first, i think blog (like wordpress) get lower traffical than forum.
    and second, there are so many spam in wordpress.

      Well, forum is open for all people who care about anything and so, it has many topics to talk about. Unlike forum, each blog narrow focus on one or two topics so it got lower traffic than forum. But, I think a blog (build on WP) is easier to manage than forum and so, it will get lesser spam content (like comment) than forum.

    • Lisa, the video is exceptional. Its easy to understand and to apply the learning’s. Recommend strongly to future website starters to download the video and view it regularly to become more familiar with its workings.

      You have made the tutorial very easy to understand by the way you explain and the language you use is non-technical.Well done on sharing this wonderful video and I can’t wait to view future tutorials.

  2. Lisa,

    WordPress is definitely better for seo. With my experience using wordpress and seo optimizing my articles I have been able to rank page of google first spot for some very competitive keywords, but most importantly I add high quality value in all my article post.

    Lisa, my experience with this is all over the place.
    Even though most of my top ranking urls are blog posts I do have a few pages that rank well also. There are a couple of posts that do well with very little internal linking and I think Google just latched on to them for some reason – although I have not been able to figure out why, because they don’t have a ton of external links either. Thanks for the video, it’s a great reminder that we always need to pop over to Google Analytics once in awhile to see what’s ranking well, and most of all, build those internal links to posts and pages.

    from a logical “website structure” perspective, if one keeps in mind and applies what Google has said to date (Matt Cutts) about search engine optimization, then one would assume that pages would do better for several reasons:

    1) keyword density
    2) direct / exact match and
    3) ease of use (user implications).

    that said, in my experience, more than the structure of the URL itself, which is what we are really talking about here when we distinguish between blog posts and blog static pages, what truly determines the performance of the post or page purely from an SEO perspective is the keyword I am targeting.

    Not everything I write on my blog is keyword focused, but for those articles that are, when I go back to evaluate how each one performs, whether a page or a post, it turns out that the results vary, but one thing is consistent throughout.

    those posts or pages that are targeted for a high value keyword (high search demand and low supply or competition) are ones that perform the best.

    this of course assumes that the URL contains the exact match keyword (in spite of a post’s URL further diluting the keyword density), and that the content of the post or page is optimized for the keyword (metas, headings, sub headings, links, anchor texts, etc)

    So while in theory a static page is supposed to perform better from an SEO standpoint, it is the actual keyword being targeted that determines the organic performance of the page, at least in my experience.

    Note that I am leaving link building initiatives out of the equation as I would not be able to do a fair comparison of the two if I factored in my internet marketing initiatives as those are heavily biased/weighted on one of the two URL structured we are discussing in this article/video.

  6. I have found that pages and posts can both rank equally well. I think the main thing is to use proper on site seo techniques. Static urls with keywords, H1 tags, keyword density, and links to those pages.

    I prefer pages so that I can build my wordpress site more like a traditional website from a site structure standpoint. But I get equal traffic to both types of pages.

    Absolutely love your videos on you tube which got me started reading your 2 Create website. I think you are the best out there with practical advice on building your own website.

    However I really wish your video was more than 4:11 minutes. It is such a tease. I do not know what the technical difference between a 4 minute and 10 minute video is for you. I know you have more you can say on each topic.

    Hope you will make longer video posts in the future or post twice as often. You are one of those I really look forward to seeing your video, and written articles. I have you on my google reader.

    Back to the topic. After doing this for a year, I do notice that I get more hits when I link within. It seems to point the reader in the right direction that they want to go in. I also agree that the keywords really hook people when I use them in my posts.

    For me, on page optimization works miracles to start with. Sure links are great but on a blog that isn’t brand new, on page optimization with a link from navigation is like a recipe to PR 2, lol.

    I have a bit more “static” content on the blog now and it is working great, using Premise for landing pages and for now, I am very satisfied.

    So comparing pages to posts, although I have some great ranked posts, if I want to make something visible and rank it, I would go with a page with more “landing” feel than a regular post with comments turned on.

    Good advice to keep faith with the basics including internal links.
    I often forget about those internal links.

    I’ve actually done better with blog posts ranking in Google and on occasion, I go back and edit old post and interlink them with new posts. This helps me rank well in Google..

    I have a static page on my blog on how to create a website which is pretty well written that i link to every chance I get and it ranks 3rd in Google for it’s keyword.. I’m going to put a little more work into it though and see if I can snatch that #1 spot..

  13. When I first started out on wordpress my whole site was pretty much ‘static’ I rarely ever used posts… wow was I missing out. Posts seem to rank much better on serps in my opinion. They also seem especially good if you list your recent posts on your homepage as google seems to like dynamic content.

  15. Hi Lisa,
    Once again an awesome video!

    I do mostly pages right now as the site I’m currently working on is pretty much a static site like you mentioned your hair one was. But I’m also experimenting with blogs and embedding links in there to other categories on my blog like you mention. I’m also testing out what amount of text ranks better. Meaning the number of words I’m using in a certain post. So I’ll keep you posted and let you know how that goes :)

    Thank you once again Lisa as I love learning from your blog/site and also hearing what others have to say.

    Ok, Hi Lisa, Nice video. I will break down what I do believe has worked for me, and how simple it is. I have a method that works well for both page and post and gets ranking pretty quickly. I agree 100% it is all about structure and NOT backlinks.

    When I create a post/page, simply. I link to home page, to other posts/pages if possible, I also link out (wiki etc. or even better as I have noticed, to a .gov or .edu page which is related to your content) Even a youtube video at the end of the post/page, related to your subject drastically helps your content get ranked.

    I also (only) post the page/post to facebook, twitter, Digg and stumleupon, and these backlinks are so strong they should be enough. I only made a post a couple of weeks a go http://therantingbeast.com/how-to-write-a-rictameter-poetry-form/ and it now already has page rank 2 and is second in all search engines below e-how.

    Craftily linking in and out of the page/post, seems to be in favour with Google and the likes.

  21.  

    You get an Amen from me, Lisa. :D

    I was worried you were going to suggest that pages work better than posts (and I keep hearing that from people for some reason)…but the only difference for my own business is contingent on the WordPress theme I’m using.

    Or if I’m using Blogger or whatever, the way the CMS/blogging platform (*since I only use blogs*) will handle the layout differently.

    For example, on the Flexsqueeze theme – you have TONS of options for formatting a page layout as a squeeze page, video sales page, membership site download page, whatever…

    Otherwise it’s going to format (on Flexsqueeze) as a blog page with your header, etc.

    Lisa it would be hard for me to say, I agree with you pages and post are content, I do not believe Google cares. I bet a lot of people do not realize that their tags and categories are considered indexable by Google. If you go to you (webmaster tools) search queries you and click on a specific keyword. You should see a list of URLs, look at the url closely and you should see tag or category.

    Very good points, Lisa.

    On-page optimization is often ignored these days – mostly out of ignorance, but it does play a huge role; especially for better established sites.

    I am sure you’ve ranked on your on-page signals alone before, Lisa, without any external backlinks; that just shows you the power of what’s entirely under our control!

  25. This is my opinion about pages and this is how I treat them on my blogs. Pages to me are my money pages. In affiliate marketing these would be the pages that I am referring traffic from. My post point to these pages to give them internal links. This tactic shots them up the serps. But the pages must also have significant external links.

  26. Interesting take on things Lisa. Have to tell you the truth, I’ve mainly used my pages for rules, storytelling, or to highlight a bunch of links on a specific topic. I’ve never even thought about whether I should apply SEO to them. Having said that, I have found that one or two pages on two of my blogs seems to generate some interest on search engines without the SEO, and I’m thinking that’s not such a bad thing.

    In the end it all comes down to the content. If you’ve good content, you’re sure to gain great SERP’s. Have shitty content or use Blackhat, you can still gain the high position but sooner than later the site will get blacklisted.
    For me, posts usually work with a short but descriptive permalink. But, I’d give static page’s a try too.
    Thanks for the post!

    I’m just finally getting into the blogging arena for my business even though I have been engaged as a blogger for other businesses.

    I use WordPress quite extensively for my projects and love the ease of use it adds for my clients. I frequently use pages instead of posts, but am learning new ways to start using the posts as page content.

    The only thing that I think makes a difference between a post and a page to the search engines is likely that posts typically tend to be more frequent that new page content. Ultimately when it comes down to it, they are the same (structure-wise).

    I do agree that we need to be linking internally more and helping users find content that will be relevant to that current post or useful.

    Thanks!

    Hi Lisa
    I read something from Yoast once that said a page is better for ever green content like you said because it keeps its SEO rankings better than a post which is destroyed by the comments that are left. Plus if you use a page for great content whenever you add anything you can then write a blog post to say you have updated it and link to it. It is also easier to find than a blog post – especially once you have blogged for years.

But I like the fact that you stressed again the importance of SEO. Quite often, when there is a new technique that works well, lots of bloggers and website owners tend to join the bandwagon, completely forgetting about the basics like SEO. Your video is a great way to remind us never to forget something as basic as SEO when creating pages or blog posts.

  43. I listened with interest to your very well presented video on WordPress Posts vs Pages and SEO. I agree with you it really depends on the way the website has been structured and optimized to favor either the posts or pages. Personally I prefer to use posts because I feel that WordPress is structured to favor posts.

  44.  

    My posts don’t rank well at all, but my pages rank great and hold rankings. Posts, if they do rank, only remain in the top of SERPs for a few days then slowly drop off.

    Lisa I mostly use post in WordPress, but I do not have much of a problem getting ranked and I get ranked for keywords that I am not focusing on, Here is something some of you may be aware of but some may not be. Create an alert that people are more than likely searching for and write a post on that alert. Google will more than likely add you to their short list of searches ( about 5). The way this helps you is because the people that do that same alert will see your post and have it emailed to them. Just an idea, if you are not sure how this works ask me.

    While I was watching your video I was thinking 2 things, 1 that google wouldn’t care about pages or posts, content is content at the end of the day. The other was that pages are usualy linked to in the navigation structure of a site, hence the reason why they can sometimes seem to be more popular to google.

    That being said I do have comment on one thing and I love the way how you comment on some of your comments, keeping the conversation going and thus adding more content for google to crawl. Very smart indeed and well done Lisa.

    Hi,

    Lisa you have really put good forth a good debate. People are always looking at one thing only BACKLINKS BACKLINKS. SEO is a merger of both, you start from your own site and fix up glitches. I have given seo consultancy to some people and the first thing I tell them is What is your website structure ?

    Your pages should be linked with proper anchor texts, same thing for posts, if they are not linked and follow a category structure where they are interlinked, BACKLINKS won’t do you any good.

    Thanks and nice post.

    Thanks for the information Lisa.

    I am curious to this one as well.

    I use wordpress for a static history website. I do not use categories or tags in my permalinks. I put a great deal of time researching different keywords and variations of that keyword. In my experience posts perform better than pages. I don’t understand this because it doesn’t make any difference to google but here are two examples:

    I have a page created that generally covers the American Revolutionary War. Within that page I target different variations of that keyword. I do not rank on Google for any of them. Google does not even notice them. It has been online for months and I link back to that page more that any of my other posts or pages.

    I created a post that deals with George Washington and I was ranked on the third page of Google for 4 different keywords in less than a month. The competition is the same for each keyword, yet I cannot seem to rank with the American Revolutionary War page.

    It doesn’t make any sense to me, but for my site it seems as if I rank quicker for posts.

    Hi Lisa,

    My site (http:// http://www.thebestbuyer.com )is quite young and so far I have found that posts that I make that link to the main article page rank higher with SEO than the main article (that has a lot more words). I think may be it is the inner link? I will try adding more internal links on my pages to boost their SEO.
    Great Video by the way!

    I try to build pages that have between 750 to 1500 words with the main keyword in the title. I then use blog posts in conjunction with an internal linking plugin to try and point to the pages I’m trying to rank. This works fairly well for the most part, but you never know what happens, and often times blog posts will outrank the pages…. go figure.

    I think its important to use both pages and posts tbh…if not for SEO but for user content experience and improving your bounce rate..

    I’ve wondered which is better for a LONG time. I guess we’ll never know for sure, I think it’s good to try and match keywords on a combination of posts and pages.

  88. I think pages and posts don’t really differ in terms of SEO and ranking. It is solely dependent on good content, keyword density and link structure.

  89. WordPress pages have worked great for me in the past, I think pages are valuable as well to search engines to increase traffic to your site.

    I like your site, it’s full of great info, and you speak in a very non-techy kind of way that’s easy to understand. Great job!

    I use WordPress exclusively, and themes and plugins, like the All In One SEO Pack, and I get decent results.

    I have researched the Thesis and Genesis themes as well as Woo themes, and they are all great in their own respect, but I think I like the Woo themes the best for what I’m after.

    As far as my experience goes with pages vs. posts and SEO, I think the pages last longer in the SERP’s, but the posts can get indexed quite quickly. Internal linking is the bomb!

    The best tip I have is to “Just do it!”

    GREAT SITE AND BLOG… you go girl!

  91. I have a white hat site that i have set up with wordpress. The site looks nice and professional i am adding content every few days with the hope of it helping me move up the rankings in the search engines (along with other SEO).

    My question is, does it make a difference to SEO if i add the new content to my wordpress site as a new page or a new post?

    So far i have been adding the content as a new page.

    It might seem like a silly question but does it make any difference if it is a new post or new page with regards SEO?

  92. The most important thing in the SEO is the title of the page or the title of the post. Second most important thing will be the keywords and the tags used in it. So in order to rank high on the search engines it is very important to right keywords,tags and titles.

    Thank you very much for your video. The new updates with google panda has really shaken up my rankings and I just had to know if posts or pages was a factor or if one ranked better than the other. After seeing your video, I am confident in your conclusion. It’s what I suspected and now I can move on to something else. Thanks again!
