Best Joomla SEO extension?

Anyone know the best / easiest Joomla SEO extension?

The SH404SEF site offers a 30-day money back guarantee if that is a concern. Also they host forums and in my experience they reply quite promptly to questions. The site also offers user guides, FAQ and more: http://anything-digital.com/sh404sef/user-manual.html

Down here, we use RSSeo since it's almost an all-inclusive plugin for Joomla!
Now, initially I thought it would pre-populate the meta description with unique content as well as change the titles to pick up some relevant page info, but no dice there.
After tweaking with it, it turns out that it will completely create a separate index (hence the index.php prefix when using K2 and RSSeo) which could possibly pull some link juice away.
However, it seems that all that needed to be done there was just utilize the RSSeo redirects (also included under the Extend option) and all duplicated pages in the K2 index were 301'd over to the index.php portion.
RSSeo gives much more manageability (IMHO) because you can uniquely attribute appropriate meta titles, description and even add keywords (not really big on that, but hey, I'm old-fashioned).
Whatever your choice is make sure that before you install your SEO plugin, be sure that your page was already indexed (if you are not familiar with the plugin so that you won't be penalized by the SE's in case you make a mistake) or if you are familiar with it, plug it in and wait for the clicks to roll on through!
CHEERS!

SH404SEF and AceSEF seem to be the two most favored SEO extensions for Joomla.
SH404SEF is a pure SEO extension. It focuses on core SEO and the author is a SEOmoz reader.
AceSEF offers a lot of extra functionality outside of the core SEO. The extra functionality is useful such as internal linking, site maps, etc. but those features can also be obtained from other extensions.

I used AceSEF for a few joomla sites I have built, does the job but can't really comment how good it is compared to the others. The free version puts backlinks/ads on your page, but since it GPL you can go in and remove the links from the code.... if you know where to look
edit: the real problem is finding if its compatible with the other extensions you are using, or if the seo mod you use has an add on for that extensions, and how much that cost.

Ajax, SEO and Angular
Hi all! We have a platform which includes a housing area which is created by ajax and angular. You can see a sample here:
Technical SEO | | Eurasmus.com
eurasmus.com/en/erasmus-antwerp/student-room-accommodation It has a static version under which shows the first 18 rooms, the rest are generated by angular.
Also this static version has a dynamic text with around 400 characters. Is this the right procedure?
How would you suggest to do it?0 -
Global Product Tabs and SEO
I am looking at a site that has global or duplicated content in 4 tabs for things like shipping, quality etc on tabs on each product page. The content is very good for UX and helps conversions but poor for SEO. Each product page has unique and tagged photos, unique title and a unique description. Is there away to specifically tell search engines that individual parts of a page are duplicated for good reason? Linking to the content to a single page decreases conversion dramatically but having it on tabs could effect ranking and quality as it is duplicated. Can anyone offer any advice with this?

New Forum: SEO considerations.
We're going to add a new forum to our website. We don't anticipate very large volumes of users. I read somewhere in The Art of SEO that forums should be 'built in bbPress'. I'm very much a programming novice so I'm still trying to get to grip with the basics of forums. I'd be grateful to know the main SEO considerations (however basic) that I should tell my web developer who is building the new forum.
