Technical SEO for Drupal sites

Agency Specialized in Drupal SEO

Drupal gives you control over structure and content, but that same flexibility creates indexing, URL and duplicate-content problems when SEO is not planned. We audit your Drupal site, fix what blocks crawling and rankings, and work alongside your developers so changes ship cleanly.

At Avafa Consulting we review your situation first and tell you plainly whether this fits before you spend anything.

What it is

Drupal SEO: powerful platform, technical details that need attention.

Drupal is a content management system built for complex sites with many content types, roles and languages. Out of the box it does not decide for you how URLs, metadata, taxonomies and redirects should behave, and that is where search problems appear.

Most gains come from a few areas: how pages are crawled and indexed, how URLs and canonical tags are set, how views and taxonomy pages create duplicates, and how fast pages load. We do not promise rankings. We find the technical causes, put them in order of impact and help your team fix them.

What is at stake right now

Crawling

Pages Google can find

Menus, views and filters decide which URLs search engines reach. We check what is reachable and what should not be.

Structure

Clean URLs and canonicals

Consistent paths and canonical tags keep ranking signals on the page you want to rank.

Teamwork

Fixes your developers can ship

We write clear technical tickets with priorities so the work moves without friction.

What we do at Avafa Consulting

What our Drupal SEO agency service includes

From the first audit to the regular review: this is work that is maintained against a goal, not set up once and forgotten.

01Starting point

Full technical SEO audit

We crawl the site and review indexing, URL structure, templates, speed and errors in Search Console to produce a prioritized list.
02Structure

URL and hierarchy review

We review path aliases, menus, breadcrumbs and content hierarchy so the site structure is clear to users and search engines.
03Modules

SEO module configuration

We check how modules for aliases, metadata, redirects and sitemaps are configured and recommend settings that fit your content model.
04Duplicates

Views, tags and taxonomy control

We find pages generated by views, filters and taxonomies that compete with each other and decide what to index, merge or block.
05Data

Structured data and metadata

We define metadata patterns and structured data that match the visible content of each template.
06Ongoing

Support for your development team

We write specifications, review releases and monitor Search Console so fixes keep working after deployment.
Is it worth it?

When Drupal SEO is worth it, and when it is not

It usually fits when

  • Your Drupal site has many pages, content types or languages.
  • Traffic has dropped or pages are not being indexed as expected.
  • You have developers who can implement technical changes.
  • You are planning an upgrade or migration and want to protect search visibility.

It usually fits worse when

  • The site is very small and has no known technical issues.
  • There is no developer access to make changes.
  • You expect rankings without content or technical work.

In those cases we start with a short review to confirm what is worth fixing. Sites that often benefit include ecommerce catalogs, publishers, universities, associations and corporate sites with large content libraries.

How we work

How we work, step by step

  1. Free audit. We review your site, your indexing status and your Search Console data.
  2. Decision on fit. If the main problem is not technical, we tell you and suggest where to look.
  3. Prioritized plan. We rank issues by impact and effort and write them as tickets.
  4. Implementation. Your developers apply the changes with our specifications and review.
  5. Verification. We re-crawl and confirm each fix worked as intended.
  6. Monitoring. We track indexing and organic traffic after each release.
Measuring results

How we measure whether Drupal SEO pays off

The useful measure is whether the right pages are crawled, indexed and visited. Technical fixes should show up first in crawl and indexing data, and later in organic traffic.

  1. We record a baseline: indexed pages, errors, speed and organic sessions.
  2. We tag each fix with the release date.
  3. We re-crawl and compare indexing and errors after each release.
  4. We review organic traffic to the affected sections over a period agreed in advance.

Search results change for many reasons, so we report what moved and when, and we do not attribute every change to one fix.

First weeks

What to expect in the first weeks with a Drupal SEO agency

We do not promise results or timelines. We describe the order of work so that you know at every moment what is being done and why.

Phase one: crawl and baseline

We crawl the site, review Search Console and record the starting numbers.

Phase two: fixes and specifications

We deliver a prioritized list with clear tickets for your developers.

Phase three: verification

We re-crawl after each release and confirm indexing and speed improved.

Common mistakes

Common mistakes with Drupal SEO

  • Leaving the same content reachable through several URLs.
  • Indexing every view and taxonomy page by default.
  • Changing URLs during an upgrade without redirects.
  • Installing SEO modules without defining metadata rules.
  • Fixing speed only on the home page.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about Drupal SEO

Which Drupal versions do you work with?

+
We work with current and older Drupal sites. Drupal 7 reached end of life in January 2025, so when a site is still on it we also advise on how to plan the move without losing search visibility.

Can you improve SEO without rebuilding the site?

+
Often yes. We first look for fixes within the current build and only recommend a redesign or migration when a technical limit blocks progress.

How do you handle duplicate content in Drupal?

+
We audit pages created by views, taxonomies, filters and translations, then use canonical tags, redirects and indexing rules so search engines know which page to rank.

Do you work with our development team?

+
Yes. We deliver technical specifications, priorities and documentation, and we review the result after each release.

Do you handle content as well?

+
Our focus is technical SEO and site structure. We can advise on content structure for categories and key pages, and we say clearly where a content effort is needed.

Which tools do you use?

+
We use Google Search Console, a site crawler, page speed tests and server log analysis when available to find crawling and performance issues.

Does Drupal work for multilingual SEO?

+
Yes, if language versions, URLs and hreflang annotations are configured consistently. We review them as part of the audit.

How long does a Drupal SEO project take?

+
It depends on the size of the site and your release cycle. We agree a plan and checkpoints after the audit, and we do not promise a date for rankings.

Do you guarantee results?

+
No. Nobody can honestly guarantee rankings, sales or leads. We guarantee the method: clear goals, correct measurement and a written decision at the end of each test.

How do I get started?

+
Request the free Drupal SEO audit. We review your situation, tell you whether it fits your case and explain the plan before any work begins.
