Ho controla tot! Si vols tenir controlat què veuen els cercadors del teu lloc web, amb aquesta extensió podràs definir fins a l'últim detall

Ease of use

No és complicada, però necessites treballar-la unes hores abans de conèixer què pot fer per tu.

Support

Ràpid, professional, resolutiu i amable. El vaig necessitar un cop i em va solucionar els problemes en molt poc temps.

Value for money

Són diners ben invertits si necessites posicionar la teva web i evitar càstigs dels cercadors per tenir coses fora de lloc

I used this to: Controlar què i com indexen els meus continguts, i cedir el control de la gestió de metas als propietaris dels llocs web.

Functionality

Very crisp functions, No problems whatsoever.

Ease of use

A bit of a learning curve in some respects, but once I grasped the terminology, easy !!

Support

Execellent. Fast and straight to the point.

Documentation

Well written, and complete.

Value for money

Saved me loads of time in relation to redirects - for me the extension provided excellent value for money

I used this to: I completely redesigned a real estate website which had a vast amount of duplicate content. Having transferred the property listings to the new site sh404sef helped with the required redirects and eliminated as far as possible the duplicate content issue.

Owner's reply: Hi there,

Thanks very much for your kind comments! Good to see sh404SEF helped you with redirects among other things. I just wanted to mention that we have kept working on that. Next version, due within a week or so, will have a vastly expanded redirects feature, with wildcards and such. Should prevent having to use .htaccess in most cases.

Cheers

Great compoent

Functionality

Sophisticated tool that works without any flaws. Controlling URLs, SEO, redirects, 404 errors, security from a single extension.

Ease of use

Relative ease to use once you get the basic understanding of what's going on under the hood of the extension and Joomla

Support

I rarely needed the support - but when that happened the support was there and helpful.

Value for money

Definitely worths the money.

I used this to: any larger website where I need extended control over their URLs structure or other SEO related needs. It gives me the flexibility I am missing in Joomla.

Perfekter Support

Functionality

Die Componente funktioniert einwandfrei. Leider ist K2 Funktionalität nicht mehr implementiert und als seperates Plugin zu erwerben

Ease of use

in Deutscher Sprache wäre die Componente um einiges benutzerfreiundlicher. Sonst gibt es aber nichts auszusetzen.

Support

Einfach super. Schnell wurde mir geholfen und selbst als sich das K2-sh404SEF Plugin nicht installieren ließ hat man weiter geholfen.

Documentation

wrde von mir nicht weiter getestet
