Configuration Essentials
- Slug: Define the URL ending of your post, for example my-awesome-post. Keep it neat and relevant or leave it empty to use an auto-genereated slug from your title.
- Meta Description: A concise snippet that summarizes your post for search engines.
- Focus Keyphrase: Identify a core keyword that your post revolves around.
Tip
- Pre-Write Keyword Research: Investigate and identify an easily rankable focus keyphrase before you start writing.
- SEO Audit Utility: The focus keyphrase is only used for the SEO Audit tool.
Exploring the Expandable Sections
SEO Analysis
The SEO panel checks your post as you write it and shows how it will look in Google. Set the phrase you want to be found for and it tells you what is still worth fixing — see SEO while you write for what it checks and how to read it.
Social Media
- Customization: Tailor the title, description, and thumbnail for platforms supporting open graph metadata (like Facebook, WhatsApp, Discord) and Twitter.
- Default Setting: If untouched, TravelFeed crafts a thumbnail blending a picture and the post title.
Advanced Options
- Noindex: Prevent search engines from indexing a post. Useful if you're reposting content already published elsewhere to avoid SEO penalties. This applies everywhere the post appears — on travelfeed.com and on your own blog if you use TravelFeed Hosting — so turning it on hides the post from Google on both.
- Canonical URL: If this post has been previously published somewhere else, put the full link here. Useful to avoid SEO penalties. If you use TravelFeed hosting, the canonical URL on travelfeed.com will automatically point to your blog if your blog has "Auto canonical links" enabled.
- Backdate Post: Opt to set a different publish date.
