SEO Guru Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 (edited) 1. Option for an index and no index no follow per forums / clubs /articles and pages. 2. Unique custom URLS without numbers. 3. The option to add meta titles and meta descriptions per forum post / clubs / pages already have it but could be better. 4. Block members by default for search engines, no data should be Indexable for members. 5. Full sitemap Control 6. Image alt tags 7. Banners should be different per forum and clubs etc to avoid dupes 8. Canonical Urls 9. Link follow and no follow options on posts, even though Google can now follow regardless, they still honour the no follow attributes in good faith 10. Schema mark up Edited September 27, 2021 by SEO Guru SeNioR-, AlessandroTax, MediaDiGi and 4 others 5 2

I don't see the benefit for members to be indexed especially when not everyone wants their profile to be. This needs better controllability and should be an option. Also you would rather the content be the primary index, after all this is why people come to your forum.

This may not be exactly what you're looking for, but you can set it so that profiles are only accessible by logged in members under permissions in System. SEO Guru 1

It's a good recommendation however we should have the ability to block search engines following these areas. Edited October 4, 2021 by SEO Guru
