Hello, I have an SEO
Hello,
I have an SEO question regarding Drupal. I am using CCK to create taxonomies such as city and county.
I am also using fields to add some other data, but I hate the user input form for the fields so I want to stick with using taxonomies.
When I crate a node using several taxonomies, I notice for each taxonomy there is a separate node created. I can think I can make the page structure that I want to use using views, but as far as the "leftover" pages that get created, I don't want the duplicate content there. Any recommendations?
Hi, I'm not sure I
Hi,
I'm not sure I understand this question, but I'll do my best.
Taxonomies should really be used when you have more than one article in a particular topic. This way your taxonomy listing pages at taxonomy/term/ID will have multiple articles on them and will not be "duplicate content".
You can also limit the duplicate content by limiting the information that is included in the teaser.
If that doesn't help, can you provide link examples of the two situations?
Thanks!

Hey Greggles, I don't mean
Hey Greggles,
I don't mean to rain on your parade - far from it. I am just a little skeptical about your SEO course when your blog's PR is 0. People say PR doesn't matter but when looking for SEO advice, it's one of the big points I look for. I'd like to hear your thoughts on this.
Anyway, thanks for the hard work, I'm sure there is some gold in the videos that may convert me from WP to Drupal.
Rob
Google periodically updates
Google periodically updates the page rank of all the sites on the internet.
Since we started in November, it is impossible to have a page rank other than 0 right now.
But our SEO videos isn't about how to get high page rank. It is another thing. We showed technical configuration in Drupal only.
You have to do link building day and night, and you have to create unique and rich content. But the fundamental is the proper technical configuration, and this is what you can learn from our videos.
Hi Rob, Thanks for the
Hi Rob,
Thanks for the feedback - I don't mind a little rain ;)
As Bence responded, I'll just add a little more.
First, PageRank is only one of many hundreds of factors that Google considers when ranking a page. Also, while Google is constantly recalculating PageRank for internal purposes, the publicly available PageRank data every few months so while the site may have PRZero, it still ranks quite well for a variety of phrases (I just did search for [Drupal SEO Video] and this page is #1).
If you don't listen to SEO experts with PR0 I think you are going to miss a lot of good advice. A better measure would be checking a few searches that they should be ranking for and see how they do.

And just for completeness...after a google toolbar data refresh, the site currently has a "PageRank" of 5 which is generally considered to be quite good.
It seems to be on the right track ;)

Thanks for the videos, Greg!
Thanks for the videos, Greg! I've just finished the 3rd SEO video you sent me, and being a Drupal newbie, I must say that I learned a lot from you! Thanks for teaching me--
(1) How to make URL forms like http://example.com or http://www.example.com both do the same thing by editing the .htaccess file;
(2) Prevent a search engine spider from accessing parts of my site that I don't want to reveal to the world by editing the robots.txt file;
(3) Create paths that display according to how I want it to be worded by using the Path Redirect and Global Redirect modules;
(4) Customize the titles of my pages (very important in SEO) through the Page Title module;
(5) Create interesting links at the bottom of my posts through the Related Links module (I've been wondering for a long time how this was done... thank you so much!);
(6) Automatically generate SE-friendly paths without having to worry about it through the Pathauto module!
I can't thank you enough! After watching the videos, I looked for a "Donate" button in your site, but didn't find any... maybe that would be a good idea to include here. :)
PS. I hope you could also make a video on how to do a multi-site Drupal installation using a single codebase (preferably, using XAMPP on Windows XP). Doing this have been mostly a hair-pulling experience for me even with all the help from the documentations in drupal.org, and I've yet to succeed in achieving it! (And lastly, the layout of your site is broken in IE 6... but I guess that doesn't matter anyway. :p) Thanks again Greg!
Thanks, we are glad you

I just saw part 3 and I like your explanations that is easy to understand and also made in just a few minutes.
Just watched video 5 and I
Just watched video 5 and I must say I have been using all of the modules so far.
What I can admit to is watching how someone else uses certain features or techniques or even an off-the-cuff comment makes your ears stand up and you say 'Wow, I never thought of that before'
Those are great moments and I can't thank you enough Greg for taking the time and effort to put together the series so far. (Is there more than 5 or was that the final?)
The biggest revelation for me was the MetaTag (nodewords) module. I'd been using it but didn't tweak to the use of a description and keywords areas inside setting up taxonomy items - that was incredible. Turn on the MetaTag Block and see for yourself where some pages have been forgotten about - most cool.
Again, absolutely top shelf video series, Greg [High Five]
Hi, I think your video must
Hi,
I think your video must be a nice resource for learning about drupal SEO.
I have worked a little on drupal SEO for a website. But I have faced many problems while doing that. I have solved some of them but some of the rest seem to me quite impossible. so I badly feel a good tutorial alike your one.
But the Bandwidth in our country is too poor to watch this video through net. It would better for me if you kindly give me the access so that I can download these tutorials first.
I must provide you my feedback & send you related questions. I am waiting for a positive response from you.
Thanks.
HI, actually providing
HI,
actually providing another downloadable format (for example .mov) is hard work... It would take about 5 hours to encode and upload the videos.
But of course you can download the FLV version, please search for an FLV downloader tool on Google. Sorry, but this is all I can do for you now, if I had time I will provide downloadable formats as well.
But as I said, you can easily download the FLV versions. (Or just pause the video and wait for downloading, then restart and watch.)
Thanks for your reply. I
Thanks for your reply.
I will try with FLV downloader soon.

Hi Greg, These tutorials are
Hi Greg,
These tutorials are brilliant! I can only re-iterate the praise others have given.
Regarding the struggle you had with "page_title" and the mod to a theme's template.php file, I think the issue causing you problems was that the code:
if (module_exists('page_title')) {
$vars['head_title'] = page_title_page_get_title();
}
needed to be put in the "page" hook area. It looked to me as though you'd pasted the code at the same level of the $vars = array() declaration.
I just tried it out and on my site and it seems to work fine.
HTH.
Cheers,
Richard
Yep - there are two (or
Yep - there are two (or more) ways that this module can be integrated and the template.php one is probably the best in general but for my situation the page.tpl.php was faster/easier to get working and will work for 90% of the Drupal users out there.
Thanks for the tips!

Hi Greg, thanks for your SEO No.2 screencast, and thanks for being honest and keeping the difficulties (and bleeps) in, I think it will help those that may come across similar issues.
I'm new to Drupal (I'm 3 weeks old now), and have found the learning curve steep, but I making progress. Your screencasts help to make things, that little bit easier.
Keep up the bleeping good work!

Yes, to this day I still get frustrated on a regular basis. But - heh - I've edited that out the cussing like three times now! Oh well. I wonder what's going on there...
Many of the best learning experiences are the difficulties. What do you do when you get to a hard point? For me, it's generally 1) step back for a minute 2) check the log files 3) re-read the instructions 4) search for the error message 5) search the issue queue 6) all else fails - submit an issue. But yes, definitely roadblocks are a standard part of every day.

Hi Greg, it's me again.
Watched your screencast - no.3? this morning, it it was great. I'll look forward to checking out path-auto more fully later today.
Just to let you know, and I'm not sure why this is, but the supplied URL for the screen cast, produces a blank screen in Firefox, as it does in Safari on my WinXP box. I think both of these have access to flash player v9.
The URL loads the screencast in IE7 OK though.
Interesting - I'll have to

I have tried to view your videos in FF2 and IE7 on two computers (XP and Vista). On both computers, in FF it brought up a blank white page with a warning about editing your robots.txt. On the Vista box, it didn't work in IE either. Finally, on the XP box using IE7 the video came up and is running now, but the XP box is a laptop without any speakers attached (plus, I generally don't have access to the laptop in question).

You probably wanted
You probably wanted informations about how to achieve good ranking in Google, or how to get lots of visitors from search engines.
But our SEO tutorial is different: we show the most important Drupal modules and settings which can affect your performance in search engines. So it is mainly technical and Drupal related.
"Its so simple"
Yes, be happy that it is simple, because Drupal is search engine friendly, so you don't need a lot of work.

Maybe one of the best module for SEO on Drupal is SEO CheckList ( http://drupal.org/project/seo_checklist ).

How to index the site in msn.co.uk
Hi
I m working on many sites. Most of the sites are showing results in google (UK) and Yahoo (UK) but no results are on msn (UK). I have added the Url in MSN ( uk ) using ( http://search.msn.co.uk/docs/submit.aspx ) but the urls are not getting indexed in the Search engine . It is showing the results when i click on ( web ) but not on when i click on ( pages from UK ). Mostly our clients are from UK so they wan to have results only for uk
Please hep me out
Thanks
Inder...........
Incoming links?
Submitting your site is not enough. Gain incoming links to your site. When no one links to your site, search engines won't find you!
Indexing in msn.co.uk
Hi
Thanx 4 ur reply
Yes i aggree with u that incomming links are important but if i m adding the urls in msn.co.uk how this is possible that single url is not added in search engine where as urls are added in google uk and yahoo uk
Can u tel me how to add the url in msn.co.uk. Plz refer some directories if its possible 4 u so that i can add the site in them to gain links
Thanks
Inder.................
Waste of time
I can tell you that submitting your site to x search engines is a waste of time. Why? Because if you have enough incoming links, then all the major search robots will find you. Otherwise it is useless to submit your URL. So I suggest not to waste your time.
Instead create interesting and unique content frequently, and people will link to your site, and search engines will love you.

SEO question about repeating content
Hey SEO folks!
At first I would like to thank you for your SEO videos! It is very good to see how to do that with Drupal.
I'm currently setting up a new Drupal-prowered site and I really want to implement all applicable SEO features. The site is about a hymn, and the lyrics will be shown in several languages. For comparison the original lyrics are shown together with each translation. But repeating content is bad according to SEO. I do not have any idea except making a picture out of the original lyrics to show with each translation, and this way to hide repeated content. Maybe you SEO-gurus can help with some ideas?
Thanks again for all your SEO information on your website!
Martin.
Love the Videos, wish there were more than 5
Hello Greg,
I'm about to watch video 5 and I'm sure it is just as great as the others. I was hoping there would be more than just 5 however. I know you mentioned a course you planning to release in March, and I look forward to learning about the details of it. Hope it fits my budget!
I'm desperately looking for how to add nofollow tags selectively to links in my site, and posted in the drupal groups forum that you started, adding nofollow on "unimportant pages".
In that discussion you mention that this can be done at the theme level, but I haven't yet figured out how to do that.
Anyways, thanks again, you videos have been extremely helpful!

Hi,
you will receive them soon, just be patient! Implement the things you learned in the first screencast!
Hi
Good stuff, thanks for all the info !
Great videos!
I've just watched video 2 and would like to say its so nice to see that the masters of this are human too! I think I'll have to watch it again though to get a proper idea of what's being done there.
So far these have been really helpful. Your explanations are so clear and simple (except when it goes wrong for you!) and just watching these has expanded my understanding of how things work in Drupal. Up to now I've just been doing what i've been told without really understanding what some of the modules do, so this is not only expanding my knowledge of SEO in Drupal, but how Drupal works in general!
Look forwad to the next one.
Esther
thanks
great job, really helped me a lot.
SEO Videos via email
Just a note on the video (Drupal SEO course #1).... When I click on the link via email and Firefox (or a Firefox tab) opens, then the video loading script sometimes does not load. Don't know if any others are having this problem but this happened twice for me, both after clearing cache, etc.

Interesting...
Having read people's opinion on this video I'm toying with the idea of signing-up and having a look. I do a fair bit of web design and coding (primarily raw xhtml/css but a little php) so it's always interesting to see other people's opinion on page optimisation and techniques to boost SERPs. Only issue I have is that I refuse to sign-up to spam lists and I can't make up my mind if I think this is indeed a spam list or if it's a genuine method of reaching likeminded people and informing them of new features and vids... ;)

In the first module you say that you are hosting the site locally but you have tricked it into displaying www.example.com in the addtess window. Can you please tell me how I can do that?

AWESOME TUTORIAL
A real top notch way to get things going on Drupal for SEO AND a great way to learn more about how Drupal functions. Easy to understand! A great resource to refer back to.
Nice Videos - Very useful
Watched the Video #1. This is very great and neat service for a free site.
Good job . Keep it up
Anand
Very easy
I've seen the first 12 minutes — very easy and clear interpretation, I'm waiting for the second part.... Waiting and waiting....
change /node frontpage to /
Hi, thanks for the interesting screencasts.
I remember I read about a simple trick to redirect the default mydomain.com/node to mydomain.com, but I can't find it anymore. I could do .htaccess redirect, but is that the best option?
Why can't Drupal just use '/' as the frontpage? There are some threads on this for 4.7 but why is it still present in D6? see http://drupal.org/node/77481.
The Global redirect module
The Global redirect module can do this. Try it out with our domain.
Video Course #2
I signed up for the video course and received the email with a link for both courses. However, when I click on the link, nothing happens. I tried in both Safari 3.1.1 and Firefox 2.0.0.14. When it happened with video one, I thought that I signed up too late to receive the video - I presumed that the email with the link was an automatic response, but perhaps the video was taken off line. But today I received an email for the second video and the link takes me to a blank page. Any suggestions?
Waiting
When will we see more episodes? I'm a bit confused; there's information about 1 h of material, but I have received only one e-mail with a link to a video.
I'm this impatient, because these videos are so good. I'm only just starting to get to know Drupal, and this is a great way to learn. Thank you for doing and sharing this!
Still available?
Are this videos still available? I tried to open the page and nothing shows (javascript enabled, and flash player available, as stated).

Missing .htaccess in 6.3
I just watched video #1, and found it VERY helpful. Thank you.
Here are a couple beginner-101 questions:
(1) I upgraded from Drupal 62 to the new 6.3, which seems to work fine -- except that my .htaccess became much shorter, only 156 bytes, namely:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
Apparently 6.3 downloads from Drupal.org without a .htaccess file (and since I'm using a Mac where that file name is invisible, I didn't notice at first). So apparently the new installation process added the rewrite stuff to nothing, instead of to the correct .htaccess file.
Could I put in my old 6.2 .htaccess file, and run update.php again? Or just cut and paste the 156 bytes onto the beginning or somewhere else in the regular .htaccess file? Or is there a better way to handle this?
(2) The robots.txt file in 6.3 left out the aggregator exclusion entirely. I'm inclined to include:
Disallow: /aggregator/
Disallow: /aggregator?
Do you know of any reason not to? I'm curious why it was left out of 6.3. What does somebody know that I don't?
John
PS: Business idea for a Drupal consultant: Offer a flat-rate hour or so to look at a site (with password access probably) and run some tests, to point out obvious problems and/or suggest possible improvements. I might have run my site for some time without knowing that the regular .htaccess file was not there.
Dupal Modules
Thanks for the videos.
I am new to Drupal and have install Drupal 6 on a testing server so that I can try it out before moving to a live site. I have found the video's helpful but note that a lot of the module that are mentioned are still under development (for example Path Redirect, Global Redirect, and Page Title), others do not even mention development for Drupal 6 (For example Related Links).
What is the position with regards the development of these modules?
Are they developed quickly are do they take time?
Should I avoid using them if they are still under development?
Is it possible to use a Drupal 5 module in Drupal 6?
As stated above, I have only installed on test bed for now so wonder if it would be ok to use the module being developed in the hope that they may be finished before I go live.
Sorry for all the question but hope you can help.
Really enjoying the course
Really enjoying the course so far, just got video 2.

Ok. where it is possible to see rest of 50 minutes? actually my problem what i build a gallery few months ago. Images have alt attribure set to name of picture as well as title of a page. I analyzed google seo, well i want my image appear in image search. if so i need file name to have a keyword. like madrid1.jpg madrid2.jpg madrid3.jpg. Only in this case i have chance in google. Now preaparing to migrate from xoops to drupal. I was tring to alias names of files without success. yes, if file exist it is bypassed by redirect in .htaccess. Now i am trying to use private file system mode. some galleries dosn't support it... well ( but i can alias files at least to names i like just like other nodes. another thing that in this mode uploaded files are renamed to something 34778457436758457845.jpg, that i don't like. now digging sources, don't know if some of video will cover my problem... maybe last video :)

Drupal Help
I have viewed video 1 on SEO which is excellent (although I had to view 2 times to really understand) but video 2 is really not what I need at this stage. I have also looked at View 2 Introduction and what's new in Drupal 6.
I am new to website building and Drupal has been recommended to me so I am using it. My problem is that there doesn't seem to be a basic intro video that gives an overview on how you develop a simple website using drupal. All of the other videos could then be used to update the website ie make it better. I don't seem to be able to get off first base and the current videos I have watched say things like " I assume you know how to do this". This answer is no I don't.
Can you please direct to me a basic video for Drupal 6 - not one that shows new features from 5. Thanks.
thanks greggles
thankyou so much for the great SEO modules, the site I have built to showcase my mum's rugs is coming up number one in the world for many of our key search phrases!
I find this quite remarkable for such a small, new, unknown and virtually unlinked to site. - Very pleased :-)
If you have not done so already, follow all the pointers in the SEO video course.
Now I just have to figure out how to get some of the traffic to stay at the website a bit longer!
Cheers,
Renaee.
Thanks for the great SEO screencast
