- <meta name="Generator" content="Drupal 10 (https://www.drupal.org)">

- Asset paths under /sites/default/files/ or /core/modules/
- X-Generator or X-Drupal-Cache response headers
What Drupal means for SEO
- Without Pathauto, node URLs stay as /node/123 — functional but useless as ranking signals and hostile to users.
- Views-generated listing pages often expose the same content under multiple filter URLs.
- Aggregated CSS and JS is a real advantage when enabled and a real problem when a deployment disables it.
- Multilingual Drupal sites frequently ship incomplete hreflang clusters; check reciprocity across every language.
- Anonymous page caching must be on for acceptable Time to First Byte on shared hosting.
