Here are some basic Drupal SEO tips that will go along way towards helping improve your Drupal Websites rankings.

1. Enable Clean URLs:   Go to administer -> settings -> Clean URLs and enable them.  If for some reason you cannot change the setting.  It means that your server needs the Apache mod_rewrite module, or your .htaccess file needs to be updated.  Usually you just need to uncomment the “RewriteBase /” line in your .htaccess file.
   
2. Enable Pathauto, Global Redirect and Token Modules:
   The pathauto module makes it possible to automatically generate Search Engine friendly URLs.  The Global Redirect module makes it so requests are always redirected to the pathauto generated URL alias.  This is important to avoid duplicate content.  The token module, helps in generating search engine friendly urls.   One trick to using Pathauto, is you want to update the pathauto settings so that if you change your page title, it doesn’t change the auto generated url.  This is the “Update Action” setting.  It should be set to “Do Nothing. Leave the old alias intact.” (more…)
