What CMS is good for SEO?

[Laviskajoermoy]

Hi everyone,

I would like to know what CMS are you using and how is good for better SEO and better usability?

Thanks

I'm going to have to say none! The biggest reason for doing so is that many people seem to think that on-page SEO can be automated by use of CMS, themes, plugins etc.. Can these replace your brains with going off and implementing keyword research, to add relevant url, post title, alt image attributes, canonicilzation, title/meta tag as well as implementing silos and funneling link juice to your target pages for ranking etc etc?

The CMS has no impact on SEO. You can create SEO-friendly webpages with just about any CMS out there.

WordPress, Joomla and Drupal are the major Content Management Platform that are almost ruling the internet. In that 60-75% websites are build with WordPress, 10-15 with Joomla and around 7-9% with Drupal, so 90% of the website world is depends on these three. It is because of the audience focus, interest, ease of use, edit, add themes, plugins etc, default blog friendly etc.,

In my experience many S E O(Search Engine Optimization) experts says, WordPress is the most easiest and finest C M S platform to boost your S E O with its incredible number of plugins that are easy to add meta tags, description, on page optimization, visitor tracking etc.,

In fact, there is no major rule to use C M S(Content Management System) to boost S E O, we know it's all about better on page optimization and proper S E O methods. But for user usability and ease of access makes the difference.

Where in the world did you make up those numbers from? You have a source for that? There is no way that 90% of the websites in the world are built on just those 3 platforms.

I agree, not a chance!

If your "SEO experts" are telling you that you need Wordpress to be successful in SEO, either they don't know what their talking about, or they don't know how/don't want to spend the time making a real website!

Even though CMS doesn't matter for SEO, in my opinion Wordpress would be the easiest and fastest one to set up. Since it's so popular, it has plenty of plugins that will help facilitate certain areas of SEO.

Worpress is the most popupar CMS in my opinion and from what I've read. But to be fair, many websites on the internet don't use Joomla, Wordpress, Magento, etc... and still do pretty good in the SEO department. At the end of the day, it all depends on personal preference.

Actually, Wordpress is probably the CMS you have to screw around with the most to make it SEO-friendly. It does so much wrong right out of the box. That's half the reason all those plugins exist.

As mentioned before by many, it doesn't really matter. As for the "easiest", I'd recommend WordPress with WordPress SEO Plugin by Yoast. Then add some time of spam blocker and social media plugins. It makes SEO easier for you.

Social media plugins will not improve the SEO.

Wordpress is best SEO friendly CMS .
Wordpress was released in 2003, and has since gone on to become the market leader as far as content management systems are concerned; and it is understandable why. It is easy to use, has great developer support, has great 3rd party support – including a large selection of themes and plugins to choose from, has a great cPanel that is easy to use for casual bloggers while being powerful enough from developers, and hence it remains the CMS-of-choice for a large number of webmasters out there. According to recent numbers, there are as many as 5.1 million websites on the internet using Wordpress – including websites such as NBC Sports and CNN!

Totally disagree!!! Try implementing canonicalization... Or how about you follow the Yoast plugin 100% with aiming to get lots of green lights with implementing keyword stuffing lol... Its useless when it comes to LSI keywords... In fact a lot of the supposed SEO plugins actually do not help with SEO at all!!!

Just because Wordpress has a huge user base - that does not make it any better for SEO... In fact it can make things harder when attempting to implement on-page SEO and further a lot of themes generate useless internal links which weakens your site structure and the link juice on pages/posts which you are attempting to rank....

CMS and SEO > Let me add something very basic.

CMS - Content management system make lifes easier for those who don't know coding such as Php, html, java etc. But by using cms you don't have to worry about any coding. You just focus on your blog and content.

SEO - Search Engine optimization, you basically dont need to choose best CMS. As long as you are good in SEO keywords analysis and writing a good content with on page seo.

Yes but when you CMS such as wordpress, DNN, joomla etc. You have the good plugins which have fields to enter keywords, meta description etc. So you don't have to manually enter h1 tags, keywords, description in html coding files.

Also the best plugins for SEO are Yoast. You can also go for genesis or thesis theme for wordpress, which are seo optimized. But remember by just installing yoast plugin or installing genesis or thesis theme you won't get traffic. You should have good content with proper keywords research for your articles.

I will give one example - I went for a seminar, where top bloggers have came for give a presentations.

One blogger has raise one question. He said he has total 157 articles on his blogger. He was using wordpress and yoast plugin. Also he had premium seo optimize theme. But still he was getting traffic of just 120-150 in an average.

So what was he doing wrong?

Also by asking this question, one of the chief guest said, he guest 5000 daily visitors from his 14 post. He was also using wordpress SEO yoast and a free theme.

So the answer is better content and better seo with unique articles gains you good traffic. Just writing 100 articles will not give traffic.

This is the blog i am talking. Analyze the blog and you get your answer. Content is related to cydia and well written articles. Hope my answer help anyone for understanding the basic of blog.

I like wordpress as best CMS for my sites. Basically Wordpess is very easy to go with, it takes a little to understand how it works.

Wordpress is first choice because plenty of seo plugins available. If you want clean code cms go for drupal.
