Hello. Since I have been working in the SEO field for some time, I was able to learn a lot of interesting and useful information about various extensions that can be useful in my work by visiting the seomeetup resource. I especially liked learning about the Redirect Path extension, which allows you to control HTTP headers and IP addresses of your website.
