[edit] Custom <title> schemes
The keywords in <title> tags being the most important factor in search engine ranking, it is important that to make these tags as relevant as possible. Mandigo has a feature that lets you customize <title> tags on a per-pagetype basis, which means you can use different naming patterns on the index, posts, pages, archives and search results.
The following variables are available:
- %blogname% = the blog title
- %tagline% = the blog description
- %post% = the title of the current post or page
- %category% = the category for the current archive, or the list of categories for a post
- %date% = the date for the current archive
- %search% = the search terms
Title patterns can be a combination of arbitrary text and some these variables, i.e. you could use "Welcome to %blogname%" for the index or "Archives for %category%" for archives.
[edit] Custom HTML tags
Another important factor to popular search engines is the use of keywords in headings, particulary the h1 and h2 elements, so wrapping relevant content in them is a good idea.
Since the title and description of your blog may or may not be relevant to your content, Mandigo lets you choose which heading level you want to use for these elements. You can also do the same thing to the title of posts in single and multiple views, and to the title of some pages ('Search results', 'Archives', ..).
Note that using a different kind of tag does not affect the look and feel at all.
