#11984 – Items to analyze and sitemap

Hi

what are all those items?

Links to pages that 4SEO found on your site while analyzing other pages. This also includes images and other type of files if found.

How to add Event Booking (component) event pages to the sitemap?

There's nothing to do to add any page that has a link from somwhere on your site.

If you have links, they will be included.

If you don't have links, well, don't bother doing SEO anyway.

But I'm confused. Have you completed a full analysis? was Event Booking added later?

If you have 6077 pages waiting to be analyzed, I'm pretty sure the Event booking pages are there.

Of course I cannot provide any real support without full and real URL to the website in question?

Hi

I always forget that every time the menu and content are changed/updated, the 4SEO analysis has to be redone.

Not really, 4SEO will see the changes and update its data in the background. How fast that happens depends on how much traffic there's on the site, as background work is triggered by frontend visitors.

that menu items and articles that had been trashed were also listed (why?)

Because 4SEO has no way to know that, and these items are of course kept. So if you delete content in large quantities, then you should reset the analysis data.

restarted the page analysis once again

But do you Reset the analysis data when you do that? because restarting the analysis absolutely does not delete anything. When you press that button, 4SEO just quickly process pages that were pending (pages that it saw were modified, new links it found).

Only a Reset analysis will delete old content.

I think the problem is that each event can be accessed from the general calendar, the calendar by date, by category, and by location... Lots of URLs for the same event.

That's a problem but not a 4SEO problem. What I mean is that normally all these "additional" links (called duplicates) should be hidden from Google (not 4SEO, Google), normally with nofollow attributes in the links, or maybe with robots.txt or noindex tags.

You should never submit all these links to Google. 

And if you do the right thing with nofollow, robots.txt etc, this will also work with 4SEO. 4SEO tries to do exactly the same thing as Google.
That's why it's a crawler, which reads and analysis each page and links (and that's why we don't read articles directly from the database like simpler SEO extension may do).

I'll try to figure out how to avoid this problem with the Event Booking developer.

Yes, multiple links to events and events actions should all be hidden from search engines. Only one direct, canonical link to an event should exist. And calendar view should be blocked from crawling as well.
