Comments on: Trusting Wordpress Plugins and “SEO for Wordpress” http://www.johnon.com/512/wordpress-seo-plugins.html I think there's an opinion on that subject lying around here somewhere....

However, it raises more questions than it answers. I understand, we don't want to name names. As I search for the fundamental question, should I even use an SEO plugin vs adding my own keywords etc I'm not finding a lot of 'expert' opinion. I've been trying to decide whether I should disable the All In One SEO plugin, or not. From what I see so far, particularly with the theme I use (Thesis) it appears to duplicate or simply take words from my content for keywords. This seems to fly in the face of what I've read about SEO. Thanks for the risk awareness factor. I hadn't thought much about that. Excellent post. However, it raises more questions than it answers.

Thanks for the risk awareness factor. I hadn’t thought much about that.

I would consider paying php security consultant only if I suspect there are problems with the plugin or if I detected new html errors after installing it. But thanks for making us aware of the potential risks. Tony Hm, never thought it was a serious problem with wordpress, but from what you are saying it sounds like it may be.

But as mentioned above you need to put a lot of time into testing and sometimes rewriting (SEO) plugins for WP. To get the maximum out of WP you need at least need 4 to 5 SEO Plugins.
