Does AnQiCMS's URL rewriting and 301 redirect management feature represent the core contribution of Fesiong to SEO optimization?

As an experienced CMS website operation personnel of a well-known security company, I am well aware of the foundational role of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for any online business.Among many features, the pseudo-static and 301 redirect management provided by Anqi CMS is undoubtedly the core highlight of its contribution to SEO optimization.These features are not just icing on the cake, but also an indispensable foundation for building a search engine friendly website.

The foundation of a high-quality website lies in its accessibility and the understanding level of search engines. Anqi CMS is well-versed in this, using the static function to turn dynamic, parameterized URLs (such asarticle.php?id=123&category=news) converted to a static, semantically tagged URL (such asnews/article-title-123.html）。This transformation is crucial for SEO because it makes the URL more readable, not only user-friendly but also convenient for search engine spiders to understand the content of the page.Keyword-rich static URLs can directly pass page theme information to search engines, enhancing relevance ratings.AnQi CMS provides various built-in pseudo-static rules such as numeric patterns, model naming patterns, and category naming patterns, which greatly reduce the configuration difficulty for operation personnel.{id}/{filename}/{catname}/{module}/{page}Create a unique and highly optimized URL structure with variables.This flexibility ensures that the website URL can maximize the use of keywords while maintaining conciseness and clarity, thereby achieving better display in search engine results.

The continuous update and adjustment of website content is the norm, but this often comes with changes in URL.If these changes are not handled properly, it will lead to a large number of 404 error pages, seriously damaging user experience and the website's SEO performance.At this time, the 301 redirect management function of Anqi CMS plays its core role.The 301 redirect indicates a permanent move of the page, which can pass the old URL's weight (PageRank) completely to the new URL, thus avoiding search engine ranking and traffic loss due to URL changes.Whether it is renaming articles, product categories, merging content, or cleaning up abandoned pages, operations personnel can directly set 301 redirect rules through Anqi CMS.This means that even if the website structure undergoes major adjustments, we can ensure that the search engine will always be able to find the correct page, and all accumulated link weights will be retained, which is crucial for maintaining and improving the website's SEO performance.The support of AnQi CMS for 301 redirects is clearly mentioned in the system upgrade log v2.1.1, and a special "301 redirect management" is provided in the function management module, reflecting its emphasis on this SEO key point.

In summary, the pseudo-static and 301 redirect management of Anqi CMS are not just two independent functions; they together form the underlying support for website SEO optimization.Static pages are responsible for building a search engine-friendly URL system, winning a better starting point for content; while the 301 redirect ensures the stability and continuous development of this system, ensuring that the website's SEO assets are not lost in any changes.They collectively improved the crawling efficiency and ranking potential of search engines, effectively solving the problem of traffic loss that may arise after the adjustment of content structure, which is the core contribution of Anqi CMS to SEO optimization.The improvement of these basic functions enables the subsequent advanced SEO tools, such as Sitemap generation, keyword library management, Robots.txt configuration, etc., to exert greater effectiveness, and collectively enhance the visibility and competitiveness of the website in search engines.
