How to customize tag and category post listings to show introductory content?

In wordpress, we allow google to index our category and tag pages. We don’t use no-index for tag or categories, which results very high ranking in a lots of keywords and we are receiving very high traffic from google. We also use WordPress SEO for SEO.

We don’t have so many control on the content of category or tag because the content is creating by underlying posts.

  1. You don’t need a plugin for that. You have at least two options:

    1. Take advantage of the Category/Tag description field, to create content to output either on a category.php/tag.php template file, or else in archive.php or index.php inside an if ( is_category() )/if ( is_tag() ) conditional.
    2. If you really need to customize your “introductory” content, create category-foo-bar.php template files, wherefoo-bar corresponds to the category slug (i.e. for category Foo Bar), and put in whatever content you need/want. Wash, rinse, and repeat for each category.

    EDIT

    One other solution: add a Dynamic Sidebar (i.e. Widget area) to the top of your Category archive index, and then use Text Widgets (with conditional logic, e.g. via the Widget Logic Plugin) to add whatever “introductory content” you want to add.
