Yes, the "Bonus Routes" addon for Statamic can be used to enhance SEO on a Statamic site in several ways:
1. Adding SEO-friendly URLs: You can use bonus routes to create additional collection and taxonomy routes with more SEO-friendly URLs. For example, you could add date-based blog archive pages or separate blog post comments pages with custom URLs.
2. Mounting collections to different sections: By leveraging bonus routes, you can mount a filtered news collection to different sections of your site, allowing you to optimize the URLs for SEO purposes.
3. Customizing taxonomy URLs: The addon makes it easier to customize and mount taxonomy URLs, which can be beneficial for SEO, as taxonomies often contain valuable keywords and phrases.
4. Integrating with SEO addons: When used in combination with SEO-focused addons like "Advanced SEO" or "Alt SEO", bonus routes can provide more flexibility in defining SEO-optimized URLs and routes.
5. Creating SEO-specific pages: You can use bonus routes to create additional pages for SEO purposes, such as XML sitemaps, robots.txt files, or custom landing pages, without the need to create corresponding entries in Statamic.
6. Improving URL structure: By leveraging bonus routes, you can create a more organized and logical URL structure for your Statamic site, which can positively impact SEO by making it easier for search engines to crawl and understand your content.
However, it's important to note that while bonus routes can enhance SEO, they should be used judiciously and in conjunction with other SEO best practices, such as optimizing content, using relevant keywords, and ensuring fast page load times.
