How it looks once i enter values in this for my blog:
Recommended tags
<meta name="description" content=" This blog talks about healthy food recipe, weight loss,fitness regime,intermittent fasting,travel to exotic destination, Investment, managing finance">
<meta name="keywords" content="Cookbook4health,fitness4fun,4Indianfoodlover,travel4fun,calorie,diet,weight loss,fitness,recipe">
<meta name="language" content="EN">
<meta name="owner" content="">
<meta name="coverage" content="Worldwide">
<meta name="distribution" content="Global">
<meta name="url" content="https://myhappylifehacks.blogspot.com/">
<meta name="reply-to" content="sarikagkp@gmail.com">
So i applied "/" at the end of every line which has meta
For example:
This line
<meta name="author" content="SARIKA">
Becomes
<meta name="author" content="SARIKA" />
So with the above correction...now this is my correct html tag to paste in theme html below head section:
<title>myhappylifehacks.blogspot.com</title>
<meta name="description" content=" This blog talks about healthy food recipe, weight loss,fitness regime,intermittent fasting,travel to exotic destination, Investment, managing finance"/>
<meta name="keywords" content="Cookbook4health,fitness4fun,4Indianfoodlover,travel4fun,calorie,diet,weight loss,fitness,recipe"/>
<meta name="author" content="SARIKA"/>
<meta name="language" content="EN"/>
<meta name="owner" content="SARIKA"/>
<meta name="coverage" content="Worldwide"/>
<meta name="distribution" content="Global"/>
<meta name="url" content="https://myhappylifehacks.blogspot.com/"/>
<meta name="reply-to" content="sarikagkp@gmail.com"/>
Tip 10: How to improve traffic through update of Permalink or directing original link to custom link
This is the current link but this is having word like "With" in the end which is not making any sense
https://myhappylifehacks.blogspot.com/2020/07/thai-green-curry-healthy-cuisine-with.html
Now we want to get
rid of this word "with" using permalink
Open this post and we
see permalink is disabled
So we first need to revert this post to draft and now you will see that permalink is having custom option to modify this url
Select permalink and remove "with" word from the link
So this line
" thai-green-curry-healthy-cuisine-with"
becomes
"thai-green-curry-healthy-cuisine"
Save draft and
navigate to settings as below:
Now , go to customer redirect option as below:
Click custom redirects and this pop up window will open:
Click "Add"
Now in the above window , enter below values in from and to lines , please note not to include domain name of URL:
Original link for post:
2020/07/thai-green-curry-healthy-cuisine-with.html
Paste is in "from" line
And we need to update below link in " To" line
thai-green-curry-healthy-cuisine.html
and click on " Permanent"
Click " OK"
Click "Save"
It says, 1 item added
Now you can publish that blog and check URL and you will see URL without word "with" in the last as below, basically update URL not the old one
Old URL
https://myhappylifehacks.blogspot.com/2020/07/thai-green-curry-healthy-cuisine-with.html
New URL
https://myhappylifehacks.blogspot.com/2020/07/thai-green-curry-healthy-cuisine.html
