Not simply because when you write an article you can input links to your own work, your own sites, and so on, but because of your name when you submit it. If someone likes an article of yours, then they may search for your name afterwards, a positive benefit on your behalf.

Some services insist on articles being unique and never submitted elsewhere, such as how to, others don’t. If you are used to writing articles it isn’t difficult to write something unique and unpublished, is it?

Start the process off at article submission, write your article, and see the benefits right away!

Although there is little similarity between the two packages, Joomla and WordPress, both allow the programmer to alter the templates for SEO purposes. The administrative backend for both are different of course, as are the methods for adding plugins, but both have ways of creating static “pages” (such as white oils or rust preventatives), and as is obvious, a method to edit them.

Overall though, I think that WordPress is a better system but that is based on my experiences. It is much easier to do SEO work on WordPress theme templates, rather than having to edit several sets of files with Joomla (template files and/or individual entries, and database entries if the Joomla is set up to grab data from a database).

Some of the sites that I have found interesting (and useful) SEO help with Joomla on:

• Alledia – SEF URL Updates
• SEO for Joomla
• Pathos-SEO.com
• Joomla 1.5 SEO Patch
