Title Management, MetaData, Content Optimization, Site Management, SEO & Metadata

SEO-Generator is a SEO extension for Joomla, which automatically generates keywords and description for each article by pulling text from the title and/or the content, to help with SEO. It also gives you the ability to set different title configurations, robots meta tags and google webmaster verification keys. Joomla provides a great system for including metadata keywords and description on articles. When editing an article there is a spot on the right hand side of the page to edit the keywords and description (it’s under “Metadata Information”). This information is used to provide the tags for the page and to connect pages using the standard Related Articles module that comes with Joomla. But what if you don’t want to have to think up and type in keywords and description every time? Wouldn’t it be nice if the related articles plugin could just always work on the full text of the articles? That’s what this plugin solves. It works with every language.


Whenever you create or save an article in Frontend or Backend, this plugin automatically fills in the keywords and description for you.
It does this for the keywords by:
1. Parsing all the words in the article and ordering them by number of times used (you can choose to generate keywords from title, content or both)
2. Removes the most common words in your language from the list by comparing it against a blacklist
3. Adds the top words into the keywords section (Limit keywords by length or number)

After saving the article you can also make some own changes and any words you add to the keyword or description section will not be overwritten when you save. But what is with that many old articles without keywords? This version adds the ability to regenerate keywords for all articles in the database. Simply set the option to “Yes”, reload "Frontpage" and set it back to “No.” All articles in the database will now have keywords. You can save, delete or change the keywords for all articles by changing the options "Regenerate All Keywords and save it" and "Minimum Word Length" or the "Keywords-Blacklist". If you are not using "save by writing" then the description and keywords aren't saved in the article but the searchengine can get it from the sourcetext, because they are also generated "on the fly". There are Keyword-Blacklists in english and in german but you can use google translation to create your own Keyword-Blacklist.

On these websites you can see how it works:

Thats not all here some other options:
* brings back keywords for the frontpage in Joomla 4
* HTML page title configuration. Set your page titles in three different ways
* You can also customize what the separator is (in this ex. it's a pipe, can be any character).
* Additionally, you can customize the front page of your site's title tag to display a custom string.
* You can have one of four different layouts

It just works!

Very simple to use and effective. A real time saver.

Great Plugin



Posted on 25 May 2009
great plugin, but i have over 10000 article and over 200 post per day, it realy slow dow my website.
Owner's reply: Thanks !!!
you should use version 2.0
then you can activate "regenerate all" only once to generate the keywords for the old articles and then activate "save by writing" to generate description and keywords for the new posts automatically in the database by saving an new post. this takes no performance
I had a problem dwonloading from the website. The reponse from them was quick, the service excellent and the product installed in little under 30 seconds. Brilliant!
I had some specific problems downloading the plug-in, but these were soon resolved with excellent and quick help and support for which I was grateful.



The plug-in seemed to work well and did exactly what it claimed to do.
So after building Joomla websites for over two years I didn't give much thought to SEO stuff because my sites are unique and rank well in Google. After doing my research I learned that I could have better Google rankings if I added meta data to my sites. I was terrified at the thought of having to go through each individual page to add tags and keywords, but thankfully I came across this plugin. It took only a few minutes to install and configure. Within minutes, this plugin had automatically added keywords to each of the articles in my website.



If you plan on using this component, make sure you get the English blacklist for this plugin, which will filter common words from the English language.
Awesome extension (GREAT for noobs to SEO)



Only two issues: It will not create meta keywords new articles! Does not generate meta descriptions for any articles



Meaning i must re-run the 'generate all' again to get it to work.
I was looking for a tool that creates meta tags for my joomla-sites and came about this plugin.



It works out of the box, just enabling needed, it's well customizable and the results are fine.

Exactly what i was looking for.
This extension does exactly what it does - SEO for lazy people. After trying, I found that the keywords/descriptions generated are useless - they are not even gonna help with SEO. I suggest if you are serious about SEO, build own keywords / description for each article, unless there is something intelligent enough to build really good keywords / descriptions out of article contents... perhaps Google has this technology?

"Must Have" for SEO



Posted on 23 March 2009
I have now added SEO Generator onto all of my SEO sites, because it does as much as I used to do with 3 different plugins. Not only that, but it does those tasks better than any one of those 3 plugins that I've now dumped.



Here's the bonus stuff:



1. The site for this extension has a list of suggested blacklist words, which saves a bunch of time looking for words like "for", "not", "they", etc.



2. The support is top notch, fast, and friendly; 3 things that are rare with free plugins. Definitely drop a donation for this awesome plugin.
I read the review below about the keywords, downloaded and installed the plugin. It all installs and works right out of the box... and the plugin does indeed only generate keywords from the article's title.



So I emailed the author and low and behold, that same day, a version is released with the option to do just what I need it to do.



Excellent... a wonderful time saver and meta-filler that works as stated. The support is an added bonus.



Give it a try. I am impressed!
