Drupal SEO Pitfalls and How To Avoid Them
summary
Lists eleven concrete Drupal mistakes and fixes: public nodes in carousels get rabbit-hole module redirects, autogenerated pages become editable entities via Layout Builder or Paragraphs (blog_field/overview_field), site search results and staging sites get indexed unless blocked by meta tags or HTPasswd protection, robots.txt disallows don’t equal noindex, redirect chains slow crawling, public file uploads invite spam/manual actions (use private files and reCAPTCHA or simple_recaptcha), and Google Analytics miscounts with the EU cookie module—apply the GA patch or whitelist cookies.
