SEO_Link app
=============

If you have a big site and want insert links into your content,
but do not want to edit all the content, this is the app for you.
It makes SEO link shaping a charm.


Description
#############
This reusable app is designed for injecting SEO Links to content areas
of a website.
It parses the html output and injects links based on a term dictionary.
The injection of the terms and links can be configured.
The injection is triggered based on OperationPath rules.
e.g. path contains/startswith/regex/exact : /abc/

The content area the injection should be done with can be
configured:

- OPERATIONAL_CSS_SELECTOR_CLASSES
- OPERATIONAL_CSS_SELECTOR_IDS
- IGNORE_CSS_SELECTOR_CLASSES
- IGNORE_CSS_SELECTOR_IDS

This way you could mark content areas, where the operation should be performed.
