Hi all, I'm using a rule from the "PageBlaster Rules! Share you rules here!! " post that makes friendlier URLs. This should really help for SEO... Good idea. Here's another pretty good one. This one grabs everthing up to the /tabid and moves it to the end, so that parent/child pages are handled better. SearchFor: (http[s]?://[^/]+)(/[^"]+)(/(?=tabid)[^"]+)/Default\.aspx(?!\?) ReplaceWith: $1$3$2.aspx The rule makes this: http://www.mysite.com/Hollywood_FX/Free_HFX/tabid/56/Default.aspx Become this: http://www.mysite.com/tabid/56/Hollywood_FX/Free_HFX.aspx
The problem is that the DNN sitemap.aspx file will use the first URL. So, a search engine will see the first URL in the sitemap and, while it is spidering through the pages, will see the second URL written by PageBlaster. Won't it then penalize for "duplicate content"? (see this link and this link for info). This could hurt the search engine rankings, right? Is there a fix for this? (Like maybe a way to use pageblaster to rewrite the links in the sitemap.aspx file as well?) |
