The revision needs to batch replace keywords and links, how to replace the entire site without damaging the text.
When the entire site needs to batch replace keywords or links, how to replace the entire site without damaging the content? The principle is one sentence: the more precise the replacement scope, the smaller the batch, the less damage. AnQiCMS's full-site replacement tool supports batch replacement of keywords or links, with keyword library locking word tables, anchor text management controlling in-site links, 301 redirect to take over the replaced URL, and batch operations during the revision have a method, not a global search and replace in one stroke.
Lock the word table before replacing.
The source of the injury is usually not the tool, but the lack of a word list. First, list the words to be modified in the keyword library: old words, new words, and target links correspond one by one, and the centralized management of the SEO keyword table is the boundary of this operation. Without this table, replacement is easy to become 'accidentally changing others', and it is impossible to verify which changes belong to this version after the fact. The word list also undertakes the responsibility of deduplication - the same old word is allowed to have only one mapping, to avoid the occurrence of overlapping words due to the successive hit of two rules.
Execute in batches according to the scope
Do not replace the entire site at once. Reasonable batch order:
- Take a single column or recent article as a small sample, manually check each item after execution;
- If the sample is fine, proceed by column, confirming one column at a time;
- Separately process the main text and metadata (title, description), as metadata length is sensitive, it may exceed the limit after replacement;
- Perform link replacement and text replacement in two rounds, it is easy to locate which type of operation caused the problem if an issue occurs;
Make a backup before each batch execution, if a replacement error occurs, use it to recover to the starting point, which is more reliable than changing each item one by one;
Anchortext is handed over to a special module.
The easiest thing to lose control of in the revision is the keyword link in the main text: batch replacement adds links to each word, and the density is too high, which is harmful to reading and SEO. AnQiCMS's anchor text management supports automatic anchor text links for keywords on the site, and whether to add links and how many times to add them are controlled by the module. The replacement operation is only responsible for changing the old word to a new word, and the 'word to link' thing is left to the anchor text, separating the two things, so the main text will not be repeatedly stacked.
If you change the URL, you should match 301
When replacing link path changes, the old address cannot be disabled directly. Use 301 redirect management settings to redirect the URL, pointing the old address to the new location: external site references, search engine indexed entries, and internal residual links all rely on 301 redirect to handle. After the launch of the revised version, check a batch of old URLs to confirm that the return is a redirect instead of an error page. This step is not done, and all the previous replacements are in vain if they are done cleanly.
Small sample test run and rollback
The three final tasks: check, observe, and rollback plan. Check according to the word list for sampling search, confirm that new words have been replaced, old words have no residue, and there are no畸形 sentences (such as repeated characters, half-width and full-width mixed layout) generated by replacement. Observe the inclusion and traffic within the observation period, and review abnormal columns first. The rollback plan is that backup before approval - plus reversing the word list again as a lightweight rollback solution. For scenarios where only words are changed and not the structure, there is no need to restore the entire database.
Common questions
Will the site-wide replacement affect the contents in the recycle bin?The actual effective range within the station is taken as the standard, use a small sample to confirm the boundary before execution; for uncertain content, clean up or restore it to the recycle bin before replacement.
How to replace and change the description to be too long?Metadata and text processing in batches is for this; find long ones, manually converge one by one, and do not use secondary replacement compression anymore.
How many 301s do I need to configure?Every changed old address in the vocabulary and URL change list must have a corresponding jump, no matter how many, and verify by sampling the old address after the revision.
