Default wordpressdirect and seo plugin

very informative. I have 3 wordpressdirect installed sites and found the seo plugin activated on all three. Where I had the problem is that few of the options were used. The seo plugin allows you to customize each post specific to the keyword for that particular post. I found the seo plugin field blank on all the posts I did. This means the plugin uses only the main site keywords for all posts. The post seo field allows you to overcome this by entering titles, descriptions and keywords aligned to the post subject. ( like in one of my blogs the main keyword is "garden Lawn Mowers" and I have a post for that and other posts "walk behind lawn mowers" "toro lawnmowers") where I have set the main keyword as these for these posts. Also with the absence of a description the first 150 odd characters in your post is used and that is what appears in google. This may not be what you want because you want your description in to be a lead to your blogs post to entice people to visit.

Like a number of people I still need to fathom out exactly what some of the other seo plugin fields do. Appart from this I think the plugin an excellent tool.
