Drupal SEO : A complete beginners step-by-step video tutorial
By fiLi • Dec 21st, 2007 • Category: Drupal, SEO
Doing Drupal SEO is easy. Drupal’s platform has some great out of the box SEO. You can do a few more Drupal SEO tweaks like use supporting modules I wrote about in “Drupal SEO : The top Drupal SEO modules and how to use them“, make sure you’re “Drupal SEO: using robots.txt to avoid content duplication” and add a few more general website SEO tweaks.
I’ve just come across an excellent overall overview of Drupal SEO presented by Mastering Drupal through video screencasts. They take you step by step doing Drupal SEO in a way I’ve always wanted to do, but never had the time for. I would go as far as saying it’s one of the best step-by-step SEO tutorials I’ve watched, and I’m glad someone finally did something like that for Drupal.
Find the Drupal SEO video episodes here: first, second, third, forth, and fifth (they ask that you go to the site and subscribe to view those). All together, about an hour of Drupal SEO tweaking.
Great work, guys.
Thanks for the post.
That said, I can’t believe greggles asked you not to link to the videos. Sheesh. The web is about direct linkage (see http://blog.welldesignedurls.org), not about linking to gateway pages. The latter requires people have to figure out where to go once they are on a site, and it’s bad for the web. If greggles wants to require subscriptions to view then he should program his site so that references to those pages force subscription, not ask you to take down links. Sheesh again.
The huge irony is that it only minimizes the inbound links and hence the SEO value to his site!
