- 301 every /transcripts/tmir-* page to its episode on tmir.reactiflux.com and delete the 40 duplicate copies (and the shadowed tmir.md page). The heading anchors use the same slug rule there, so #fragments still work. - /tmir redirect is now a 301. - Every page gets a canonical URL, og:url, og:site_name, a www banner image and a large Twitter card. Titles get a " · Reactiflux" suffix unless they already name the site; pages without a description fall back to one. - Homepage: real title and description, Organization JSON-LD. - /transcripts gets its own H1, intro and dated list instead of duplicating the newest transcript. Transcript pages get "<Guest>: Q&A transcript (<Month YYYY>)" titles (no more duplicate Jared Palmer / Nader Dabit / React Conf titles) and a one-line meta description. - noindex the Discord OAuth callback and the unfinished podcast player, and drop them and /blog/1 from the sitemap (/blog/1 redirects to /blog). - Descriptions for blog posts, /jobs and /tips.

Why
The 40 This Month in React transcripts lived here and on tmir.reactiflux.com with no canonical between them, so the two sites competed for the same searches. The site-wide metadata also had gaps: the homepage was titled "Welcome" with no description, no page had a canonical tag, and
/transcriptscopied the newest transcript in full under that transcript's own H1.Changes
TMiR consolidation
public/_redirects: a 301 for every/transcripts/tmir-*URL to its episode on tmir.reactiflux.com, generated from the files and checked against the TMiR repo's episode list. TMiR builds heading anchors with the same slug rule, so#sectionlinks keep working.src/md-pages/tmir.md, which the/tmirredirect already hid but which still showed up in the sitemap. The content lives in the TMiR repo./tmiris now a 301 instead of a 302. If that 302 was intentional, for example ahead of a move to thismonthinreact.com, say so and I'll revert it.Site-wide (
SEO.js/Layout.js)og:urlon every page: www, no query string, no trailing slash.· Reactifluxsuffix unless they already include "Reactiflux". For example, "Jobs" becomes "Jobs · Reactiflux".summary_large_image,og:site_nameandtwitter:site. Fixed the duplicateog:imagethat appeared when a page passed its own image.noindexandstructuredDataprops.Pages
/transcripts: H1 "Q&A transcripts", a short intro, a link to TMiR, and a dated list with each guest's blurb, replacing the duplicated newest transcript./jobsand/tips./auth/discordcb(the OAuth popup) and/podcasts/24-06(the unfinished player; it's prerendered in a loading state, so the tag is outside theLayout). Both are removed from the sitemap but still crawlable, since Google has to fetch a page to see noindex./blog/1now redirects to/blogand is removed from the sitemap.Please check on the deploy preview
/transcripts/tmir-2026-08and/transcripts/tmir-march-2023should 301 to TMiR./transcriptsand a couple of transcript pages should read well.Verified locally
yarn test(lint and prettier) andyarn buildboth pass. I checked titles, descriptions, canonicals, robots tags and JSON-LD in the built HTML. The sitemap has 117 URLs, with no TMiR, auth, podcast or/blog/1entries.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
