What's New
- Adds more highlighting options to SEO table: - option to highlight pages with many links. Preference added so that you can choose the threshold, but default is set to one link per 100 words (can be changed in Preferences>SEO) - (this number comes from Matt Cutts of Google: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/how-many-links-per-page ) - option to highlight too short / too long meta description. This is important because it is displayed on search engine results page (SERP). Defaults set to between 30 and 160 characters is ok, can be changed in Preferences>SEO- Adds link count - Also adds word count, allowing user to find pages with small or large amounts of content, and to compare number of links with number of words. - Also adds canonical url and takes this information into account when highlighting duplicates (ie two pages aren't marked as duplicates if one contains a canonical url)- Adds these three new fields (links, words, canonical url) to the Page inspector (double-click an item in the SEO table) - Adds checkboxes to switch columns on or off in SEO table (Preferences>SEO)- Other small fixes and enhancements as listed in the full version history
