SEO + Sitemaps + Screen Scraping all in Rails

Posted by John Fri, 10 Aug 2007 12:20:00 GMT

Still improving my lil’ demo apps code I’ve moved on to create more permalink google-friendly site structures and reading data off RSS feeds.

So in the benefit of others, here’s what I found,

SEO on Rails ...nice blog on integrating basic SEO tactics into your rails app, friendly permalinks, url mapping and dynamic metatags.

Screen Scraping ...good in-depth article on screen scraping with Rails, pulling off html data from a target website (e.g. Twitter) to import into your database

Google / Yahoo Sitemaps ...excellent article showing how to get your Rails App to create Yahoo / Google compatible sitemaps using the in-built XML features of Ruby.

Enjoy,

John.
