BuddyPress and SEO – folder jumps
-
I’m trying to understand if there will be an issue with using BuddyPress groups and SEO. From my reading on SEO the closer a page is to the main domain the better. For example, if I have a forum topic about Butterflies and I was just using bbPress the URL would be:
MySite.com/forum/topics/butterflies/
The page “butterflies” would be two jumps away from MySite.com
But if I use the feature to add my forum inside of a group the URL changes to this:
MySite.com/group/group-name/forums/topics/butterflies/
The page “butterflies” would be four jumps away from MySite.com
I was wondering if anyone knows if using forums inside of BuddyPress will have a negative impact on SEO and if there’s a way around it by having the URL structure different, reducing the number of jumps.
