Building SEO-Friendly Sites with Drupal

" summary

Force all domains to canonicalize to one host, configure robots.txt to block staging, and use Pathauto + Token patterns so aliases follow a predictable hierarchy. Install Redirect auto-creates redirects to turn old aliases into 301s when titles change and avoid 404s. Generate and submit an XML sitemap submission to Google Search Console, use the Meta Tag module (it uses the body summary as the default description) and add Google Analytics or Tag Manager for tracking. Include schema/RDF or JSON‑LD for structured job/listing data.
