[hibernate-dev] Hibernate site SEO optimization

[Vlad Mihalcea]

Hi,

It seems like a good step to tackle the SEO optimization problem is to
offer a "curent" link in our site to point to the latest docs.
That's how PostgreSQL and Spring do it and once this link is indexed by
google, it will always render the latest version of the docs:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/

http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/html

MySQL does not offer this option and when googling something about MySQL,
there's a big chance of getting a 5.0 page instead of 5.6 or 5.7.

I think we should add a "current" "symbolic link" in the docs folder:

https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/

and when we publish a new version, we need to go to Google Webmaster Tools
(at least that's how I do it on my blog) and ask google to reindex that
particular "current" link. I guess that could be automated too.
