Thanks for the crystal clear instructions- less than 60 seconds in Blue Host.
Cheryl says
Your instructions were almost perfect (one little tweak needed for the renaming of the file on bluehost) so it was very easy to do. Thank you for the thorough and easy instructions!
Frank says
Worked great for me on HostMonster, many many thanks!

Hey Jeff I have the seo plugin on a couple of different sites but when I try to up grade to the latest wordpress it doesnt seem to work. I have just set up an new site using the latest version 3.0.4 of wp and on the page that shows us says that I need to use a 2.7 version or newer. Ion cube is set up but still no luck. Do you have any suggestions??
Jeff Johnson says
Looks like you may have an older version of TGSP. Please make sure your download the most recent version and follow the instructions at:

If my wife has already installed your plugin in hostgator, Does it work for all the websites on hostgator or do we have to install for each website? Thanks for the free plugin and the videos. Don
Jeff Johnson says
each wordpress installation needs it.
Britt Phillips says
I’m hosted at GoDaddy and althought it wasn’t click and go simple, it really wasn’t that bad to get it working. A quick call to my host and simply following the great instructions to install the ioncube did the trick.
My site optimization is sitting at over 75% now.
Thanks Jeff.

Your RSS feed doesn’t work in my browser (google chrome) how can I fix it?
Jeff Johnson says
That’s kind of funny considering my feed is by feedburner, which is owned by google. Sorry, but i’ve never used Chrome so I don’t know how to fix it.

Users on the (mt) Media Temple gridserver will be able to use this article to quickly load up ioncube libraries. Worked like a charm for me:
