The more complex the coding of a page the more chance of errors and the more chance that bots wont be able to index it properly.

Wrong!

And unless the "coding errors" mean the page(s) doesn't even get served out from the server, it won't deter the "bots".

Chris, what you are saying can be translated: there is no such thing as SEO friendly WP themes?

^I think you have a good point there webcreation, I do between 50 and 200 searches perday, never see a wordpress on that first page of google, but is this due to bots not liking wordpress, or is it due to amatuers setting up sites using wordpress and using crap content etc?

That's about the size of it.

There are "themes" that are coded to be accessible (WAI guidelines) or are better for "usability". But it won't matter to search engines and the very LAST thing anyone should consider when choosing a "theme" are search engines.

Not at all, it is a very useful tool for publishing information.

Like all tools it has good points and bad points, with one of the bad points (from a SEO perspective) being the way it handles multiple categories for a single entry.

OK. Now how about wordpress based websites? I do use wordpress based websites and don't see anything wrong in rankings or crawling. But we make it a point to leave out the categories and such. Will it affect the site?

If the robots find a dead link normally it is removed from the engine a short while later. Clean html and coding. No error links can help in a better performance.

No it isn't. It can take many months for a "dead link" to disappear from the SERP.

Nope! It will make NO difference at all.

I think it would be not right to target the wordpress. I think it doesn't matter that what you are using to your site either it is wordpress or anyone else. The matter is what you are proving to users. The feature of site should be easy to use.

Nor do I think that the theme of the wp blog can affect the seo. They can be better for users.
