Aurora: Configure SEO settings

In the community, you can configure various SEO settings to optimize your content to attract more readers to your site. Khoros offers several out-of-the box SEO features such as custom metadata and structured markup.

From the SEO Settings page, admins can configure SEO settings such as redirect rules, robots.txt editor, and more.

To configure SEO settings:

1. Sign in to the community as an Admin.
2. Go to Settings > System > SEO.
3. Under Settings, configure the following:
   
   • For the Exempt domains from "nofollow" option, click Edit and enter the domains (separated by commas) for which you want the “nofollow” value set. Learn more about Exempt domains from rel = “nofollow” attribute set.
   • Toggle on or off Append topic ID to title and description meta tags.
   • For the Sitemap update frequency option, click Edit to adjust how often, in minutes, the sitemap file should be regenerated. This value cannot be lower than 15 minutes.
   • For the Website name to display when posting a community link on Facebook option, click Edit to enter the URL (up to 200 characters) you'd like to display when users copy/paste community links on Facebook. This name is added to the Open Graph "og:site_name" property of the meta tag.
4. Go to Redirect Rules and configure rules to map one community URL to another. Learn more about managing URL redirects for community pages.
   
5. Go to Robots.txt Editor, where you can view the Default Rules. In the editor, you can also add Custom Rules that are appended after the default rules. These rules instruct the web crawlers to crawl only the relevant pages and ignore the pages that don't require crawling activity.
