Wordpress "incoming search terms" plugin

[acecream]

Hello everyone!

newbie to SEO and have been trying to keep everything nice and ethical but I've seen on a couple of blogs today "incoming search terms" at the bottom of the blogs, then a bullet pointed list of search terms  beneath it.

So I had a quick search about the use of it and noticed wordpress has a plugin that automatic ally generates these "incoming search terms".

I ask is this a legitimate plugin or will this harm my blog? I assume it generally will as I can't see this being much use for the audience, rather it would be 100% for trying to lure in search engines.

Hi Joe,

Welcome to the community.

In my opinion, be very careful of using this plugin especially with Google going aggressive with their over optimization penalty. It does not look very aesthetically appealing to have visitors looking at a bunch of search terms at the end of your blog posts.
