Purpose

This mod is a replacement for Simple Titles Mod that supports a few modest search-engine optimizations. First, Meta keywords tags are added to your individual and family-group page headers for names, aliases, and nicknames. Although Google claims not to use keyword tags, other search engines such as Yahoo! still do. Second, this mod preserves the page title simplifications from Simple Titles Mod and adds those same simplifications to family-group pages. Together these changes should improve one's page rankings and prevent Google from arbitrarily rewriting page titles.

Developer

Bill Herndon

Features

Search-engine Optimization - Keywords

On individual and family-group pages, names, nicknames, and aliases are gathered and added as Meta keywords tags to the page's header.

Page Title Simplification

This mod supports two forms of page title simplification. On individual pages, you can choose from two formats for titles. Short (option 'short' in the mod parameters, the default) displays the following:

  • Robert Paul Herndon (1909 - 1992): Lindell-Herndon Genealogy

The long (option 'long') format displays:

  • Robert Paul Herndon (b. 9 Oct 1909 - d. 12 Dec 1992): Lindell-Herndon Genealogy

On family-group pages, the standard format (option 'std' in the mod parameters, the default) displays the following:

  • Robert Boyd Herndon and Tennie May Calhoun Family: Lindell-Herndon Genealogy

The international format (option 'int') displays:

  • Robert Boyd Herndon - Tennie May Calhoun Family: Lindell-Herndon Genealogy

Examples

Screenshots
