# EXT:news_seo {#newsseo}

This extension improves the SEO features of EXT:news by providing the following fields:

-   Index this article: `index` vs. `noindex`
-   Follow this article: `follow` vs. `nofollow`
-   Image Preview Size: Options standard, large, none

Even if no individual robot instructions are necessary, this extension solves the
problem to set the detail page to `noindex` to avoid being listed in the sitemap but *now*
having a `index` instruction when rendering an article record.
