SEO Ultimate WordPress SEO Plugin Version 2.1 Released

SEO Ultimate, the free WordPress SEO plugin from SEO Design Solutions, has just been updated with an overhaul to the 404 Monitor module.

WordPress SEO Plugin

SEO Ultimate 2.1 Released from SEO Design Solutions

404 Monitor now features a new, streamlined interface. 404 errors are grouped by URL and feature a hit counter and hit recency info.

SEO Ultimate 2.1 404 Monitor

Each 404 now has its own convenient dropdown list of referring URLs. This is ideal for pinning down broken links on your site that may be generating the 404s.

Just click a referrer to open it in a new window. There’s also a similar list for user agents, ideal for catching 404 URLs that search engine spiders are visiting.

The 404 Monitor data table also integrates with WordPress’s “Screen Options” feature that lets you personalize the interface of your 404 Monitor by enabling/disabling log table columns.

The new 404 Monitor was built with the modern website in mind and automatically ignores common sources of harmless 404s, including the iPhone’s apple-touch-icon.png requests and browsers’ favicon.ico queries.

In addition to these new and improved features, 404 Monitor maintains existing features such as Google Cache querying, selective log entry deletion, and a temporary disable option.

Not only does version 2.1 include 404 Monitor version 2, it also includes over a dozen other behind-the-scenes tweaks, including database optimizations and PHP overhead reductions.

If you’re already taking advantage of the power of SEO Ultimate on your own WordPress blog, you can upgrade to the latest version in just a few clicks by going to the “Plugins” section of your WordPress admin.

If you haven’t tried out SEO Ultimate yet, give it a spin using the automated installer on the SEO Ultimate homepage or download it directly from WordPress.

    I too have that error;

    Fatal error: Call to undefined method SEO_Ultimate::get_table_name() in /home/ukdomest/public_html/wpblog/wp-content/plugins/seo-ultimate/plugin/class.seo-ultimate.php on line 611

    I just “auto updated”.

    @Anak and @Tony: Thanks for the bug reports. This bug occurs when upgrading to 2.1 with the “Delete visitor logs after __ days” option enabled under Settings > SEO Ultimate. I released version 2.1.1 which fixes this problem. If the fatal error prevents you from upgrading, you can also fix the problem by deleting lines 607-612 in version 2.1′s “class.seo-ultimate.php” file.

    Hey Guys,
    I haven’t installed this plug in yet but was wondering how different it is from the All-in-one-seo plugin?
    Is yours any better or can you point out the differences.
    Thx.

    This is an incredible tool which I use on a daily bases. Many of the custom themes and addon plugins disable wp’s built in 301 redirect so this 404 monitor is perfect to help stay ontop of any broken links. Would be nice to see perhaps future version with the ability to input the working link below the broken link in the 404 viewing area and have it redirect 301 or maybe a title string matching which would redirect that broken link automatically to the closest matched, post,tag, gategory etc… which would eliminate 404 errors all together ;)
    example- broken link site/041910/abccategory/this-is-my-post-200
    tweaked working link -
    site/041910/abccategory-1/this-is-my-post-200

    It could match date/post ID to redirect to the latest working link.

    @Troy: In our opinion, SEO Ultimate blows All in One SEO Pack out of the water in terms of functionality, but you can decide for yourself by comparing the feature lists of SEO Ultimate with All in One.

    @Paul: Thanks for the great ideas! The first one (301 redirects) is already in the plan and I’ll add the second one to the list as well.

    I just wanted to say firstly, this is a great plug-in – a “must have” for any ‘presser…

    Secondly after a slight bug with the recent upgrade, the response has been fantastic – fixed in less than 24 hours – 1st class service

    Thank you

    I installed this plugin and then uninstalled it. After that I noticed the the previously set title description is gone.

    is there a way to add it again. I’m not able to do it in All In One SEO Pack

  19. John Lamansky
    Posted May 25, 2010 at 5:56 pm | Permalink

    @TechGyo: You can get the title & description back by reinstalling SEO Ultimate. You can then cut/paste the data into All in One’s fields.

    After that experience. I don’t want to use this plugin at all. It also delays loading time. Thanks anyway. I’ll have to restore the backup from the server. from here on I should be careful about installing unfamiliar plugins

    @TechGyo: I’m sorry you didn’t have a good experience with the plugin. Would you mind explaining further so we can improve?

  22. TechGyo
    Posted May 26, 2010 at 3:08 am | Permalink

    Yeah, the features mentioned in the Plugin is okay. But the problem is that this plugin delays loading time. inspite of having WP Super cache. Previously the site was loading in 2 seconds. after installing this plugin it delayed to much.

    Previously I was using All in One SEO plugin and then I found SEO Ultimate. I just wanted to give it a try. Then I installed.

    It actually spoiled everything ALL In One SEO Plugin did. then I uninstalled SEO Ultimate and then checked it the old settings were working. It was all gone.

    the Title description and meta tags for all teh pages were gone and even when I try to add new it won’t do anything.

    It totally spoiled the site.

    I had to restore the backup to get things going.

    But right now. The problem is that the last backup was way back and I lost all my new pages and settings.

    @TechGyo: I’m sorry that you had that experience. Did you use the SEO Ultimate importer to move (instead of copy) your All in One SEO Pack settings? That’s the only reason I can think of for why the settings weren’t in All in One anymore.

    To everyone who has been getting “string offset” errors: please upgrade to version 2.5.1 and let me know if this solves the problem. (Delete the old version first if it is preventing you from accessing your site.)
