Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
TheGreyWizard Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 So I own about 70 different variations of my websites main name. Where can I/should I list these in the meta data so they work for me in terms of SEO? I'd also like to add the domains respective keywords into the metadata for SEO as well, is this all done in the same place?
Admonstrator Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 As far as I know the use of multiple domain names for a single website will not push your SEO score. So there is no need to add them to your meta data.
TheGreyWizard Posted November 28, 2015 Author Posted November 28, 2015 Hmm. So there's no way for me to use the names to my advantage in any way? What about adding regular keywords to the meta data, where is that done and how?

h-y-b-r-i-d Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 You can 301 redirect them to you main domain, you'd do that individually using htaccess if on Linux. You don't add them in invision anyware, and the seo benefits are basically none. Meta keywords are also dead, even more dead is manipulating them. I would seriously re evaluate your seo strategy, it seems a bit 1999.
TheGreyWizard Posted November 28, 2015 Author Posted November 28, 2015 I already have all of my domains redirected/forwarded as a 301 (permanent) to may main domain in my domain manager through my registrar, godaddy. But I was hoping to use their names to my SEO ability. I didn't realize that keywords in meta data are no longer used. Why does Invision still have a place for them inside of ACP>SEO>Meta tags as Admon has suggested? I guess it can't hurt to add the key words to that area inside of the ACP could it? I would want to separate the keywords just by a comma still right?

You can edit the meta tags within the ACP -> Search Engine Optimization -> Meta Tags So looking into this section, it seems it brings up a Live Meta Tag Editor, or allows you to add Meta tags. Can anyone explain the differences between these two sections and how to use the Lie Meta Tag Editor? I see all of the og:site_name, oglocale, og:type etc and I don't know how to proceed or how to add edit anything. i don't want to mess it up.
