I recently removed one of the major, well-known and highly promoted SEO plugins. I’ve, in turn, replaced it with…nothing; I’m using the SEO functionality integrated directly with this theme.

I’ve maintained the exact same naming, tagging, and description methodology and have the following graph from the WordPress Stats plugin to show some early results.

Now, I’m going to do some additional analysis on this and see if this dramatic up-tick occurs, but I thought this to be very interesting, to say the least.

Note: After about 2-weeks of testing I’ll divulge the SEO plugin I was using and inform you of the results.
