vidmarc Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 How important is is that we fill all four fields in? Does it make a difference? And what exactly should we put into these four fields for maximum benefit? Meta Title Custom SEO URL Path Meta Keywords Meta Description Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Depends on the admin Store Settings, Search Engines tab, Global Meta Data Behaviour setting: Disabled, Merge, or Replace. If Replace, and there is incomplete meta data for the content being shown, you might not get any data for that meta field. If you do not enter a custom seo path, Cubecart will construct one for you. Because I am an seo-atheist, I have no idea what to put in these fields "for maximum benefit." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havenswift-hosting Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 The "best" setting for the Global Meta Data Behaviour is Replace as this gives you the chance to enter specific information for each page (category, product, document etc) but it means entering this information for EVERY one of them.How important is is that we fill all four fields in? Does it make a difference? And what exactly should we put into these for fields for maximum benefit? Some are vital as below ! What to put into these fields for maximum benefit is the holy grail of SEO optimisation and not something that can be covered in a simply reply (or a whole book for that matter!) Meta Title - Vital as the most important SEO tag Custom SEO URL Path - not necessary but depends on how you have named your categories, products, documents etc Meta Keywords - not at all important as not used by any of the main search engines Meta Description - Important especially if done correctly. If not then Google for one, will create their own meta description for you Thanks Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
