Excursus: What is a breadcrumb?

Post by Mitu100@ »

Better for SEO and the shopping experience: Products now always have an active main category
Products can be assigned to multiple categories, but one category must be set as the main category. This one will be displayed on the product detail page. In addition, this is also useful for search engine optimization, because the main category defines the breadcrumb.

Breadcrumbs allow page visitors to get an overview of which level of the page hierarchy they are currently at. For example, if visitors have entered a sub-page, they can use breadcrumb algeria telegram screening navigation to jump to a higher level of the domain.

Breadcrumbs are also useful for search engines, as they can use a breadcrumb navigation to gain insight into the page structure and thus better classify subpages in the general page structure. Furthermore: If you use structured data, Google and other search engines can also display the navigation path in the SERP snippets.

Previously, you didn't have to define the main category. Then the first category in the category tree was automatically selected. However, it was not checked whether this category was active. So a click on a breadcrumb of an inactive category led to an error message. Now the automatic selection can only set active categories as the main category, thus avoiding errors. One more step towards an excellent shopping experience!
