Usage

The SEO tag will respect any of the following if included in your site's _config.yml (and simply not include them if they're not defined):

  • title - Your site's title (e.g., Ben's awesome site, The GitHub Blog, etc.)

  • description - A short description (e.g., A blog dedicated to reviewing cat gifs)

  • url - The full URL to your site. Note: site.github.url will be used by default.

  • author - global author information (see below)

  • twitter:username - The site's Twitter handle. You'll want to describe it like so:

    twitter:
  username: benbalter

  • facebook - The following properties are available:

    • facebook:app_id - a Facebook app ID for Facebook insights
    • facebook:publisher - a Facebook page URL or ID of the publishing entity
    • facebook:admins - a Facebook user ID for domain insights linked to a personal account

    You'll want to describe one or more like so:

    facebook:
 app_id: 1234
 publisher: 1234
 admins: 1234

  • logo - URL to a site-wide logo (e.g., /assets/your-company-logo.png)

  • social - For specifying social profiles. The following properties are available:

    • name - If the user or organization name differs from the site's name
    • links - An array of links to social media profiles.
    • date_modified - Manually specify the dateModified field in the JSON-LD output to override Jekyll's own dateModified. This field will take first priority for the dateModified JSON-LD output. This is useful when the file timestamp does not match the true time that the content was modified. A user may also install Last Modified At which will offer an alternative way of providing for the dateModified field.
    social:
  name: Ben Balter
  links:
    - https://twitter.com/BenBalter
    - https://www.facebook.com/ben.balter
    - https://www.linkedin.com/in/BenBalter
    - https://plus.google.com/+BenBalter
    - https://github.com/benbalter
    - https://keybase.io/benbalter

  • google_site_verification for verifying ownership via Google webmaster tools

  • Alternatively, verify ownership with several services at once using the following format:

webmaster_verifications:
  google: 1234
  bing: 1234
  alexa: 1234
  yandex: 1234
  • lang - The locale these tags are marked up in. Of the format language_TERRITORY. Default is en_US.

The SEO tag will respect the following YAML front matter if included in a post, page, or document:

  • title - The title of the post, page, or document
  • description - A short description of the page's content
  • image - URL to an image associated with the post, page, or document (e.g., /assets/page-pic.jpg)
