Right out of the box Thesis includes some pretty powerful SEO options. One of the most important ones is the meta description box in the add new post page. Whenever you create a new post you should always get in the habit of filling this out accurately with relative keywords.
For example I just tested a search in Google for one of my posts. I searched for how to add a shadow border in Thesis. It came up number 1 but more importantly there was a accurate description of what the page was about. Check it out…
The “Add shadow border to your blog page” was the title of my post. The “-customize Thesis through…” was part of the title tag option which you can learn about HERE
