Implement tags/standard SEO practices #5463

Closed bgantick closed 1 year ago

bgantick commented 2 years ago

Problem Statement

We need to add meta tags, schema standards, etc to help with SEO and discoverability of unauthenticated pages.

What you need to know

From #3181:

Adding meta/schema tags will help with what shows up in search results and if links are shared via social media/etc. From Ming: "can you help me understand why the RS page does not show up when you google it? The RS github page does and is the 2nd highest result behind SimpleReport." https://usds.slack.com/archives/C02HJ43AE8Z/p1635545478124500

Looks like we have a meta tag defined that prevents robots, like the Google Bot, from crawling the website: https://github.com/CDCgov/prime-reportstream/blob/64ac89dfbb71aff56be92617fbdd7bea01cbc425/frontend/src/_includes/head_tags_universal.liquid#L7

From Ron: "We do need that tag, but it should only be enabled in lower environments."

We should research what it will take to have marketing pages surface on search engines.

Acceptance Criteria

@RakshindaAslam Added this to the product backlog (can maybe go into next items to be done after #3181?)

@brandonnava FYI - this looks like something we were talking about add to our site last week.

brandonnava commented 1 year ago

@sliu1000 Yeah technically this would be on Experience to implement but they will need content from our support FAQ deep dive so will update this once we have those asks for Experience figured out.

@drew-usds This looks to be a dupe of the other one I tagged you in #3181

chris-kuryak commented 1 year ago

Old and appears to be duplicate of #3181. Closing.
