Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
SeNioR- Posted August 13, 2022 Posted August 13, 2022 (edited) Hi Guys. I have some recommendations on the sitemap. Google ignores the "priority" values so it is redundant, it can be completely removed. reference: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/sitemaps/build-sitemap Quote Google ignores <priority> and <changefreq> values. The second thing is that the lastmod value only changes to when a new answer is added. Okay, but what if we're editing the first post? e.g. topic title and description? I noticed that lastmod remains the same, so the Google crawler does not revisit this topic to index new content. Edited August 13, 2022 by SeNioR- Afrodude 1
