JOOMLA SEO Search Engine Optimization and Information for Joomla Sites - Pathos

The Best Joomla SEF Component OpenSef

I know, thats a bold statement to make.

But I have tried every one of them and will write a review on each of them separately.
So watch out for those comparisons!

I had a short list of the things that could make Joomla more of a Content Management System's that work with Search Engine Friendly URLs.

- Standard Joomla SEF (Always get this working FIRST)
- Sef-Advanced ( 40$ Commercial license)
- 404Sef (Newly picked up by other developer)
- RemoSef (From the developer of Remository)
- OpenSef (Developer of OpenSef, OpenWP and OpenWiki)

As I stated before, I have tried the all.
And I am running then all on different websites!

Why I think OpenSef is the Best?

The sites I run with OpenSef have got the best and fastest rankings on the keywords I optimized them on.
It is a great assets if your are working on Joomla SEO

The rewriting of the Content to a SEF URL is fast, really fast.

The Google Sitemap functionality writes the SEF URL into it.
N.B. Remove the component/com_sef location for the file from the configuration and make sure you have a writable xml file in the root of the website.

I can make my own SEF URLs if the ones I see i don't like :-)
It is stable and thats a BIG Plus.

It doesn't rely on other programs on the server or components other than a .htaccess file and Joomla SEF running (which all of the third party SEF components want you to do first).

You don't have to hack into core file's or other files.
And last: OpenSEF Installation is a breeze and the support fast and good!
