+1. Theme Installation
+2. Search Engine Optimization Overview
+3. Meta Description
+4. 301 Permanent Redirect
+5. Sitemap
+
+1. Upload the 'octoberspecial' directory to /wp-contents/themes/. Login and navigate to Presentation tab and activate October Special. The theme does support widgets. Download and install the WordPress Widgets plugin here - http://automattic.com/code/widgets/
+
+2. Search Engine Optimization Overview
+Currently this theme is optimized for search engines, but there are a few additional things that can be done including a meta description tag, 301 permanent redirect, and creating a sitemap.
+
+3. Meta Description
+Search engines usually see your content as duplicate. Granted it usually is not duplicate content, but without a unique meta description tag on each of your posts you are hampering your search engine traffic.
+
+To solve this we can use the head meta description tag. It can be downloaded from http://guff.szub.net/2005/09/01/head-meta-description/ and it is easy to install. That URL contains instructions and I recommend setting the length of the meta description tag to 20 or 25 words.
+
+4. 301 Permanent Redirect
+When people link to your blog they usually link to http://domain.com or http://www.domain.com. Because of this the search engines usually see them as two separate sites and you may have 100 sites that link to http://domain.com and 50 sites that link to http://www.domain.com. If the search engines saw it as 150 links in total instead of 50 and 100 your rankings would most likely go up. You want to consolidate the links and do a 301 permanent redirect in your .htaccess file. Here is the code that you may want to use:
+
+Options +FollowSymLinks
+RewriteEngine On
+RewriteCond %{HTTP_Host} ^YOURDOMAIN\.com [NC]
+RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.YOURDOMAIN.com/$1 [L,R=301]
+
+**Make sure the code is on 4 lines in your .htaccess file and replace "YOURDOMAIN" with your domain name.
+
+5. Sitemap
+You don't really need a sitemap for your blog, but it will just help get your pages indexed faster. You can create your own HTML sitemap or you can use a WordPress plugin. I recommend using the Google Sitemap generator plugin which can be found at http://www.arnebrachhold.de/2005/06/05/google-sitemaps-generator-v2-final.
