Joomla is one of the most powerful Content Management System used by the corporate segment. A very comprehensive system with a wide range of capabilities.

Unlike other Content Management Systems, Joomla has been rapidly incorporating SEO features within its core programming so that the use of plugins is minimal. This greatly reduces the code generated on the site, makes it faster and gives you the required set of features within the system.

Joomla Meta Tags

With Joomla 3+ you can directly insert the keywords and descriptions for each page in edit mode without requiring any external plugin. Under the edit mode of each article the "Publishing" tab gives you the option to enter the keywords and descriptions.

Joomla URLs

The "alias" for each article defines its URL. And if you need .html extension applied to your URLs then Goto: System > Global Configuration and enable the below SEO settings:

• Search Engine Friendly URLs
• Use URL rewriting
• Add suffix to URLs
• Unicode Aliases

Remember to enable your .htaccess file in the root folder. If you don't have .htaccess in your root folder then it will not work. The above steps generate beautiful search engine friendly URLs in Joomla.

Google Sitemap Generation

Joomla does not generate sitemaps for you. But there are several plugins that will help you to do:

• OSmap
• JSitemap
• Aimy Sitemap

There are many other fantastic SEO friendly operations that can be carried out very easily in Joomla. Joomla websites have shown a very strong response to SEO because of their optimal code and fast response.
