I have been experimenting with Rage SEO which seems great in theory, but I can't seem to get it to work in practice.
I have put title, meta and alt image tags into pages using the SEO tool
It does not seem to work publishing the whole website using the built in ftp but I can understand that - iweb cannot seem to manage to publish my whole site that way either - it seems to need it published in bits. However, it will happily publish changes.
I thought the answer might be to try an external ftp like cyberduck/fetch to publish those optimised pages.
I have used cyberduck to publish individual pages like a verification file to goolgle and a sitemap and that all seems to work.
However, when I try to publish the optimised page via cyberduck or fetch the title tags and alt image tags do no show up on the home or cake/sweet making page. They do show up on the index page.
I have even deleted that page from the server using the ftp and then uploaded the new one and it still does not show up. However, when I open that same page from my saved folder I see the optimised title tag I added using the SEO tool.
I am sure I am missing something here and maybe someone can explain. This is my first iweb website and a new venture so I do not know a huge amount about html and seo, but am learning as I am going and am doing it all myself.
Thanks, Annette
Just wanted to add.
I tried altering a page with iweb and saving to a folder. Then I and uploaded just that page with cyberduck and found that the alterations did not work either, so I get the feeling it is nothing to do with the adding of the tags and something to do with how I am uploading.
Is it something to do with the way that cyberduck and iweb upload that they are not linking to each other? Or is there another file I need to upload as well?
It would be a pain to have to upload the whole website again as it takes ages and I have to do it in parts as it is too big to do together.
