As Content Management Systems like WordPress and Drupal become more common, along with their url rewrite schemas, it occurred to me that perhaps I’m not really exploiting the tags and categories people are assigning to their posts for search.
Let me explain: this blog is based on WordPress. As a result, the URL for this post has the post’s title in the URL. However, the post also belongs to a category and a small set of tags: WordPress being one.
These tags also have their own separate pages: /tag/WordPress. So, wouldn’t it be quite cool if I could search for URLs with the words “tag” and “WordPress”? And… you can, using Google’s allinurl: keyword.
So, in your search box type: allinurl: tag WordPress and you’ll get those blogs and other websites that have specifically marked up their posts with the WordPress tag. Sweet.
