I'm thinking very hard about changing the language of the forum and domain, but I don't know how it will look like with posts in the native language. English will be the main language and old threads would be moved, for example, to the archive category. What does SEO look like after such...

Note: It also shortens slugs in the admin, but this will be fine as all things are...
We recently completed an SEO analysis, as our site traffic took a big hit with the September 2022 Google update. One of the recommendations was to mark all the thread titles and posts with rel="ugc", to designate them as user-generated content.

Here is my latest Search Counsel report from Google. I know my site is still new but why the huge disparity between the crawled not indexed and the indexed? Any way to close the gap that has worked for you?
Question for the SEO-savvy. I'm getting asked what's better for the forum's SEO? Post an article in the Resources section or as an Article in the forums section?

Is Portal Better For Seo Or Is It Better To Combine The Community With A Separate Wordpress Style Site? The problem is that I can't trust any software other than xenforo. I lost 9 wordpress sites, they were hacked. I also lost 3 communities and 1 toplist site. I don't trust any software other...
