 +=== SEO ===

 +

 +
 +== Sitemap ==
 +
 +Sitemap is is a list of pages of a web site accessible to crawlers or users. ​
 +
 +By default the Oxwall software package includes the sitemap.xml and robots.txt files.
 +You will be able to access these files on your server in the public_html/​directory or other directory the software is installed in. 
 +
 +To get the sitemap working add the following code to the end of the robots.txt file:
 +
 +<​code>​Sitemap:​http://​[your_site_URL]/​sitemap.xml</​code>​
 +
 +|**Note:** Replace [your_site_URL] with your site name.|
 +
 +The robots.txt file content for the Oxwall demo site looks like this:
 +
 +<​code>​
 +
 +# This file contains rules to prevent the crawling and indexing of certain parts 
 +# of your web site by spiders of a major search engines likes Google and Yahoo. ​
 +# By managing these rules you can allow or disallow access to specific folders
 +# and files for such spyders. ​
 +# The good way to hide private data or save a lot of bandwidth. ​
 +#
 +#
 +# For more information about the robots.txt standard, see:
 +# http://​www.robotstxt.org/​wc/​robots.html
 +#
 +# For syntax checking, see:
 +# http://​www.sxw.org.uk/​computing/​robots/​check.html

 +</​code>​
 +
 +The Sitemap settings section allows you to manage the sitemap settings. ​
 +
 +**Schedule updates** - set the interval the sitemap should be updated within. ​
 +
 +The recommendable value is weekly; this is the average frequency the pages' content is changed in. 
 +
 +**Page types** -choose the pages that should be included in the sitemap. ​
 +
 +Base Pages like Join, Sign in custom pages like Terms of use etc., Users or Photos pages. ​
 +
 +{{:​overview:​admin_area_manual:​seo_2.png?​500|}}
 +
 +Since the sitemap generation process depends on [[install:​cron|Cron Jobs]], make sure it is working on your server. ​
 +
 +If the site is populated and consists of many pages, the sitemap generation may take up to several days. 
 +
 +== Social Meta ==
 +
 +The system grabs all content from the SEO Page Settings and adds it to the Open Graph Tags. 
 +
 +All you need is upload your site logo or image that should show when users share link to your site in the social media. It should be a .jpg image 1000px width.
