Social Media
- Customization: Tailor the title, description, and thumbnail for platforms supporting open graph metadata (like Facebook, WhatsApp, Discord) and Twitter.
- Default Setting: If untouched, TravelFeed crafts a thumbnail blending a picture and the post title.
Advanced Options
- Noindex: Prevent search engines from indexing a post. Useful if you're reposting content already published elsewhere to avoid SEO penalties. This setting only applies to the post on TravelFeed, not to blogs on TravelFeed Hosting.
- Canonical URL: If this post has been previously published somewhere else, put the full link here. Useful to avoid SEO penalties. If you use TravelFeed hosting, the canonical URL on travelfeed.com will automatically point to your blog if your blog has "Auto canconical links" enabled.
- Backdate Post: Opt to set a different publish date.
