Fix SEO issues to impove the Ahrefs' Health Score

nqst commented 8 months ago

Made some changes that should significantly improve our SEO Health Score provided by Ahrefs (it's 73% as of Dec 2023):

Fixed a lot of broken links.
Fixed that some links that were incorrectly parsed by Docusaurus by using a pathname:// workaround (see /docusaurus/issues/6282). Not super happy with that solution, but I couldn't find a better one.
Fixed that Open graph URLs did not match Canonical URLs.
Fixed incorrect Twitter card formatting.
Significantly optimized some heavyweight images.

Remaining issues:

We're using plugin-client-redirects for Docusaurus but it's bad for SEO. Ideally, we should use server-side redirects instead. Is it possible?

No unfortunately not. GitHub Pages doesn't support it. We would have to switch to deploy on Netlify or Vercel I think.

Thank you! All looks good to me except pathname. Are we better off with absolute urls? They will transfer better to a different engine if we switch from Docusaurus + self-explanatory.
