Webpages that aren’t constantly updated are considered less relevant to search engines, so they tend to drop lower in search results over time. That’s why it’s so important to continually submit posts to your WordPress: it will keep your profile fresh and relevant in the eyes of search engines, helping it rank as high as possible.

This post shows you three ways to keep your profile updated:

1. Submit a post
2. Comment on someone else’s post
3. Share someone else’s post

1. Submit a post

1. Open this WordPress page in a new window (log in if asked).
2. At the top of the page, click “New Post”.

3. Click what type of post you’d like to create – for example, I’m going to create a text post.

4. Type a title and text post in the corresponding fields. Then click “Publish Post”.

5. Don’t know what to post and need inspiration? Check out topics you can easily blog about.

2. Comment on someone else’s post

Not only should you post a status every other day, you should also comment on or share someone else’s post.

1. When you find a post you wish to comment on, click “Leave a comment”.

2. Type a comment in the “Enter your comment here…” field, then click “Post Comment”.

You can also add your own text along with the post if you want, but it’s not required.
