Good idea Ivor.
- Working the Metatags even further. At the moment the contents of
our (as in the OGMK) description tags is pretty sparse, and wholly dependent on the contents of the "Description of this node" field. Pumping the first 150 chars of the article content into the description metatag after whatever the "description of this node" field contains, would give search engines more to go on.
This is what the page summary is for, no?
Indeed. However loads of ours are blank, or too short to make really good description metatag content. Something like: If the page summary is less than X chars long, then making it up to 150 chars using page content and with a ... at the end to signify truncation" would be a bonus I'm sure.
Cheers.
Tom.
