SEO Friendly Calendar System
-
Does anyone have a recommendation for a calendar system that is SEO friendly? I have been using Helios Calendar but the current version lacks proper SEO bones (canonical URLs, mini calendar generates links to empty events from 1950 to 2020, 302 re-directs, and it is generating thousands of crawl errors in Google Webmaster Tools.
The developer has plans to implement some fixes, and I would rather not rip apart what is currently there to fix core issues.
I have found that calendars in general are a nightmare. If anyone has any suggestions, or has experience in tidying up Helios I would be interested.
Thanks,
Dan

I'm really impressed with the Tribe Calendar- I've been using it almost a year for a community run arts initiative Mass Culture and its working out really well. Not only does it look great but in terms of SEO it has he most complete functionality I've yet found. Also the new Geolocation information really assists in local search too.

Just an update, I see that Helios calendar actually fixed most of these issues with their current release. We switched to Tri.be Events Calendar Pro, it was better but the auto delete of past events and auto redirect in the new Helios calendar is very handy, I think I will be switching back.

Were you able to find anything that worked for you? I see reviews of calendar plugins, but nothing talking about the SEO-friendliness of the calendars. The only thing I see related to that is questions other people ask, wanting to know a good recommendation.

Google Calendar?

We are using WordPress. Joomla had similar problems with their calendar but I believe they were solved.
The calendar is being used as a public events calendar which allows for users to submit events for approval, share events etc. I am not sure that the Coffee Cup will suffice.

They MIGHT do the job. Are you by chance using WP or Joomla? Good calendar systems for those out there.

Craft CMS SEO Resources
I'm just starting out in freelance SEO & I've taken on a client who is using Craft CMS (version 2.0ish) for their site. I am not even close to being competent enough to manually code via Twig, but I had the main developer install the SEOmatic plugin for me. My question from here is - are there any resources or tips I should be aware of starting out? I just started by updating meta title/descriptions via "New Template Meta(s)" but I'm a bit concerned i'm doing the "template path" thing right - I haven't seen any visible changes in browser, and the SERP preview I'm getting is giving me a broken link. But i'm doing a fresh Moz crawl right now to see if the changes took place or not. so 1. Am I on the right track? 2. How long does it typically take for changes to start to show? 3. Is there anything I should be aware of? any follow up questions just let me know, I'll be following this thread!

Redirect domain without losing SEO benefit,
Now my website need to change to new domain, Since we start this website we have the landing page for sale and blog. So I need to redirect both a.com to b.com and a.com/blog/ to b.com/blog/ and I need to do by these step to keeping the benefit of SEO. For a.com Preparing the new site by duplicate the information of old site. (Get them no-index, no-follow) Export all URL to excel files by Xenu then look up together for re-check the information are they the same or not, I think we can check that if we used the same title. Redirect together by 301 codes. Get google bot know by submission to Google Webmaster Tools (Google Search Console) For a.com/blog/ Since we used wordpress to be our blog CMS, So we need to install wordpress CMS to b.com/blog/, Then backup SQL from PHP C Panel & files. Re-upload that SQL database & files to new server. Export all URL contain /blog/ then look up together by excel again. Redirect by 301 codes. So for this method what am i wrong or need to change please suggestion me. According to this is the technical SEO stuff that I never done before. After we redirect the old domain to new domain how much time Google will take for checking and give the benefit for us with the same benefit. And what we have to do for Moz.org to checking our issues & ranking. Plus - what can we do for no-index, no-follow page that belong to a.com because my website also doing these page as well for each marketing campaign to avoid Google to index.

Using 302 redirect for SEO
Hello, I'm in charge of SEO for an information website on which articles are only accessible if you have a login and password. Most of the natural links we get point to our subscribers' subomain : subscribers.mywebsite.com/article1 If they follow these natural links, visitors who are not logged get redirected (302) to www.mywebsite.com/article1 on which there is an extract of the article and they can request a free test subscription to read the end of the article. My goal is to optimize SEO for the www.mywebsite.com/article1 page. Does this page benefit from the links I get to the subscribers.mywebsite.com/article1 page or are theses links lost in terms of SEO? Thanks for your help, Sylvain
