|
|
Hello, I have a quick question. I am running the optimal tittles and it is a great mod, ran it on my other board for a couple years and it does a great job. I have set up a new board and I think I did this with the other board but not sure.
Now when you view a topic is does as I like and what it is suppose to with the format...
[topic] > [forum title] > Mozilla Firefox
I would like to add the site name to that as well like this.
[topic] > [forum title] > [sitename]
Now my question is would adding the site name be an overkill? The title is very relavant to the keywords of the site. The site is called Texas Camping Forum. So the most popular Keywords would be "Texas" and Camping".
I asked this because someone was asking when hunting season started in Texas. So the title was like this.
When..? : General Hunting - Mozilla Firefox
I think if it was like this it might make targeting my audience easier because of the keywords....
When..? : General Hunting : Texas Camping Forum - Mozilla Firefox
That way when some searches for "Texas" and "Hunting" boom it is in the title and keywords are in place.
Am I in the right ballpark here? Would this be overkill, and if not how would I go about doing this. I know viewtopic.php and viewforum.php has to be edited but how would I add that the mod code now? I know this wouldn't pertain to every site, but I think in my case it would be beneficial to have my site name in the title as well.
-Thanks |

In includes/functions.php, you can replace :
| Code: | | 'PAGE_TITLE' => $page_title, |
with :
| Code: | | 'PAGE_TITLE' => $page_title . ' : ' . $config['sitename'], |
Should do it. We did not did his by default because it's not necessarily this good to repeat too many keywords in every titles, texas and camping are for example already included in your domain's name.

So SE take in account domain names too when looking for keywords?
Would their be any ill effect from adding this on?

Well as said, the difference will not be very big, but in your case, the keyword "texas" and "camping" will most likely be related to all of your topics content, so it won't hurt an could even have a minimal but positive impact
