Looking for help improving SEO on your Drupal site? There’s a great little module available called the SEO Checklist. It provides a list of the best SEO modules for Drupal and tells you if they’re installed. If you don’t, it will give you the link to download the extra modules and then a link to enable them. We’ve already got a Joomla version of the prelaunch checklist (membership required). I wonder if it would be worth converting it into a component format? Two quick downsides worth noting: the module doesn’t actually check to see whether anything is set up correctly…

Back at the beginning of 2007, Johan Janssens announced that Joomla 1.5 will include a Mootools script library. Mootools is a Javascript framework that is lightweight enough to be used for lots of clean, quick Flash-style effects. A lot of people are starting to take advantage of Mootools, not only in 1.5 but also in 1.0. Anthony Olsen from Joomla Bamboo is foremost among the. He has just redesigned and relaunched joomlabamboo.com so it seems a good time to point out some of the great work he’s doing.

I’ve talked before about how having less pages indexed is often better and after doing SEO audits on several sites last week I was reminded of how important this was. Sites with only 200 or 300 genuine pages of content had over 1000 pages indexed in Google. Lots of Joomla components produce 100s and sometimes 1000s of unnecessary extra URLs that are then indexed by Google. A simple example is Mostree which is a very robust component but because it was built in pre-Ajax days, it creates separate 4 extra pages for each listing: recommend, rate, review and report listing.…
Part two of my video blog posts about creating HTML page titles in Joomla. This is partly inspired by Barrie from Joomlashack who pointed me to a great post by Copyblogger.
This is my first attempt to create a video tutorial in Joomla. Its an answer to a question we get a lot … "Whats the difference between a page title and an HTML title?" It also seems a good place to start because modifying page titles on clients’ sites has produced better results than anything else we do. Adding SEF URLs, generating more links and improving site structure are all less effective than page title improvements. Above all, I’m interested to see what you think. Are video blogs worth the effort?
