GEO for TYPO3

TYPO3 serves content server-side — a good starting point. The configuration of robots.txt, canonical and schema happens via TypoScript or extensions.

robots.txt and sitemap

From TYPO3 9 on, the core generates a robots.txt and an XML sitemap via the route configuration and the seo system extension. Add bot-specific AI rules as a static robots.txt or via middleware.

Meta and canonical

The seo system extension sets title, description, canonical and hreflang per page. Maintain the fields in the page properties "SEO" tab; avoid empty descriptions.

Structured data

TYPO3 does not ship comprehensive JSON-LD out of the box. Extensions like schema or a custom Fluid partial solution provide Organization, Article and Person with sameAs.

Testing the result

citeglass fetches your TYPO3 page as a browser and per AI bot and shows rendering, detected schema types, heading hierarchy and the crawler matrix.

Check your own site

citeglass shows in about 30 seconds where your website is unreadable for AI systems — free and without login.
