How do you handle SEO on your site? How do you guys handle SEO? Do you just make your own meta fields and add them in the template manually or am I missing something? I did notice there are some plugins being developed but there are sites in the wild now so it's been handled some how. Thanks!
Without having to use a separate Plugin this is a good basic practice on setting up basic SEO for your site.

First create three new fields called "seoTitle", "seoDescription" and "seoKeywords". Put these three fields in a Global group called "globalSeo".

In your layout template "layouts/_layout.html"

    {% set seoTitle = globalSeo.seoTitle %}
    {% set seoDescription = globalSeo.seoDescription %}
    {% set seoKeywords = globalSeo.seoKeywords %}
    &lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
    &lt;html&gt;
        &lt;head&gt;
            &lt;title&gt;{% if title is defined %}{{ title }}{% else %}{{ seoTitle }}{% endif %}&lt;/title&gt;
            &lt;meta name="description" content="{% if description is defined %}{{ description }}{% else %}{{ seoDescription }}{% endif %}"/&gt;
            &lt;meta name="keywords" content="{{ seoKeywords }}"/&gt;

            {# You can then use the same fields for Facebook tags etc.. or create separate fields. #}
            &lt;meta property="og:title" content="{% if title is defined %}{{ title }}{% else %}{{ seoTitle }}{% endif %}"/&gt;
            &lt;meta property="og:description" content="{% if description is defined %}{{ description }}{% else %}{{ seoDescription }}{% endif %}"/&gt;
        &lt;/head&gt;
    &lt;body&gt;


You can now per template override these standard variables with your own for that particular page and/or template.

For a template:

    {% extends "layouts/_layout" %}
    {% set title = "This is a my custom Page Title" %}
    {% set description = "This is a my custom Page Description" %}


For a entry:

    {% extends "layouts/_layout" %}
    {% set title = entry.title %}
    {% set description = entry.descriptionField %}


.. or if you want to user to have custom control over the entry SEO as well you can always add the same "seoTitle" fields to the entry's Channel/Structure/Single and do:

    {% extends "layouts/_layout" %}
    {% set title = entry.seoTitle %}
    {% set description = entry.seoDescription %}
