Well, that’s a lie, but you knew that beforehand. I want you to change your sidebar too. First set the archives widget to display as a drop down list or remove it completely. Second, if you’ve more than a handful of categories, remove the categories widget. [...] […] Did I really promise that applying basic SEO to a WordPress blog is done in five minutes?

Implemented with perhaps 10-15 more lines of code in the category-index script. A <b>real</b> glossary plugin should parse posts and comments for defined terms too. That's a great way to insert topical cross-links. Thanks Andy for stumbling the funny variant not mentioned in the post. :)

Once you've dozens or hundreds of posts per category you might want to go for a more scalable solution which separates the links lists into particular topics. Then you just make the link to the sitemap/mega-hub less prominent in favour of links to your top selling categories. That changes next to nothing with the engines and is a (one of many) suitable method to manage traffic streams.
