  Hi, where can I enable SEO settings on my blog? I need to add SEO content that becomes visible when I share any article on Facebook rather than the first paragraph.

  Please help.

  Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You cannot do that on any WordPress.com blog because we cannot access metadata. This is a multi-user blogging platform.

  If you are asking about http://opinioncircuit.wordpress.com/ it will never search at all – the blog is empty

  If you want help we need the REAL URL of the blog you need help with

  Hmm. Thanks for the help. I went through the content as well. We typically do try and make sure that keywords, tags are used.

  Any other top of mind suggestion you may have to boost SEOability?

  Thanks again. Appreciate the help.

  It’s of interest to note meta titles, meta descriptions and keyword metatags are not required for SEO purposes and Matt Cutts of Google has said that as far back as 2009. Search engines are focused on keywords in your content. What is important is keywords found in your content. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/03/01/revisiting-keywords-and-tags/

  WordPress.com SEO is very good. If you had two identical sites, one hosted here and one self-hosted using that same plugin, the site hosted here would have better SEO than the self-hosted site. WordPress.com has huge SEO and you get the benefit of that by having your site hosted on a .wordpress.com “subdomain” here.

  To verify blog ownership of a WordPress.com blog with the major search engines you must use this process > http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/
  Note: Even if you do not verify the blog the content will be indexed by search engines so don’t feel panicky about this please.

  Note also that WordPress.com automatically supplies sitemaps for our blogs to search engines – we do nothing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sitemaps/#xml-sitemaps-for-search-engines
