- 37. NAME OR LOGO FAQ Snippets Just Remember: • This is not a substitute for Q&A snippets, so users cannot submit answers. Follow Google’s guidelines carefully. • Use keyword research tools like Answer the Public and SEMrush Topic Research to find good questions. • You might see a rise in impressions but a fall in clicks, so use it wisely and make answers enticing like a meta description. • Add more than 10 questions to get a “View more on example.com” link that leads back to your site.

- 58. NAME OR LOGO Placement of JavaScript https://www.slideshare.net/Badams/technical-seo-in-the-real-world
- 59. NAME OR LOGO Placement of JavaScript Just Remember: • Google indexes pages in two stages. The first stage looks at just the HTML. In the second stage, the Web Rendering Service (WRS) executes the JavaScript and renders the web page as if it was a browser. • When rendered, JavaScript injects an <iframe> into the page. An <iframe> is supposed to be in the <body>, so Googlebot thinks the <body> has started. • Put GA/GTM scripts just before the closing </head> tag.

Make sure dynamic URLs aren’t indexed. • Google crawls and indexes URLs up to 2,000 characters long. • Short URLs are easy to remember, so they may result in direct traffic. • Long URLs may rank for multiple related keywords.
- 68. NAME OR LOGO Pagination Site Architecture
- 70. NAME OR LOGO Pagination Pagination is commonly used by these types of sites: • Ecommerce (category pages) • Publishers and Blogs • Forums
- 71. NAME OR LOGO Pagination Infinite Scrolling Lazy Loading
- 74. NAME OR LOGO Pagination Just Remember: • Pages are indexed separately according to their URL. • Page links help Googlebot navigate to deeper level pages. • The further away a page is from the home page (more clicks needed to reach it), the less PageRank it will get. • Use internal linking well to make sure all pages are indexed.
- 76. NAME OR LOGO Pagination Just Remember: • If a page is dropped from Google’s index, it will lose all signals, including “follow”. • If you have a blog post on multiple pages, consolidate into one page. • Each page should have unique content. • Do not use rel=canonical to point to first page.
- 77. NAME OR LOGO Pagination Just Remember: • Manual pagination is better than infinite scrolling and load more. If you use one of these two, map pages to unique URLs. • Static URLs are better than dynamic URLs or query parameters. Don’t use URLs like example.com/category1?page=2. • Don’t use JavaScript to load pages. Use crawlable HTML links. • Make sure pages are not blocked from robots.txt.
- 78. NAME OR LOGO Site Speed Page Loading
- 79. NAME OR LOGO How important is site speed to users?
- 80. NAME OR LOGO Mobile Speed Stats
- 81. NAME OR LOGO Speed Metrics (for Mobile Sites) • Speed Index: How quickly the mobile page displays content to users (ideal = under 3 seconds) • Time To First Byte: How fast and responsive a mobile server is in a specific category (ideal = under 1.3 seconds) • Request Count: The number of individual pieces of content needed to display the entire mobile page (ideal = fewer than 50) • Page Weight: The total size of a mobile webpage, measured in bytes (ideal = less than 500KB)

- 88. NAME OR LOGO Tools for testing page loading & performance • Google Page Speed Insights • Gtmetrix • WebPageTest • Pingdom • Chrome DevTools
- 89. NAME OR LOGO Image Optimization Just Remember: • Use lazy loading (images load only when they get into the user’s viewport). Defer off-screen images on mobile. • Use WebP over JPG or PNG for better compression. • Specify image size. Use adaptive image sizes (replace single images with source sets). • Use internal linking well to make sure all pages are indexed.

- 92. NAME OR LOGO Log File Analysis Crawling
- 93. NAME OR LOGO Log File Analysis
- 94. NAME OR LOGO Where do you find the server logs?
- 95. NAME OR LOGO Log File Analysis Log files contain the following information: • IP address / hostname • User agent • Timestamp of the request • Method of the request (GET/POST) • Request URL • HTTP status code returned • Size (in bytes) of the response
- 96. NAME OR LOGO Log File Analysis
- 97. NAME OR LOGO Log File Analysis What you can do: • Look at data in real time – which crawlers and users are on which pages and what they’re doing. • Is Googlebot crawling regularly? Which bot is it using (Googlebot / Googlebot Smartphone)? What is your crawl budget for each? • Is Googlebot crawling your site from other countries? • Are other bots (like Bing or Yandex) crawling your site too? Do you want them to?
- 98. NAME OR LOGO Log File Analysis What you can do: • Track URLs with redirects and HTTP errors – 3xx, 4xx, 5xx. Is Google crawling these pages repeatedly? • Which URLs are not being crawled enough or at all? Compare with your sitemap and robots to find inconsistencies and orphaned pages. • Is Googlebot crawling too many URLs with parameters? • Identify large and slow pages by looking at average bytes downloaded and time taken to crawl.
- 99. NAME OR LOGO Log File Analysis Just Remember: • Log file is server-side data while analytics like GA work on the client-side. It is the most accurate data you can have. • You can convert server logs into CSV and other tabular formats. Tools such as Screaming Frog Log File Analyser, SEMrush Log File Analyzer, and Elastic Stack can help you analyze and visualize web logs. • Crawl budget = Number of pages Googlebot crawls per day. Total no. of pages / Average no. of pages crawled per day should not be > 10. If it is < 3, that’s great.

Notas del editor
- When you go to a premium conf. what do you expect? Do I have to reveal “secrets” on technical SEO? This is Google’s search algorithm. Unlike this picture, there are many moving parts that influence rankings.
- Everyone knows all this. There are 100s of blogs out there. We are all no better than you… Maru to hamna khabar padi j jase. The point is, what do you do with all this knowledge? Do you apply it?
- You have made a good start and come to a premium event. We will tell you the same things but since you have paid money you will listen to us. Nai to khavanu nai pache.

- This guy looks like he needs a lot of makeup.
- Naturally, big brands, CMOs and all your clients would think it is a one-time job. And still you guys wanted me to speak on it! Can’t believe you guys! You want to continue or should we talk about the economy or Corona virus?
- In many searches – hotels, flights, sports, jobs, events, celebrities – the situation is worse. Either the clicks go to Google properties or the answers are in the SERP itself.
- So is SEO dead? No, it’s a zombie. Because everyone is stuck. You’re neither living nor dead.
- Note this. Write this. Embed this in your brains.
- Whatever gets you long-term rankings and brings in qualified traffic.

- Do barnacle SEO.
- Featured snippets are achieved more through content optimization than links. Once you go above #5, links don’t matter much. Your site should have a lot of informational articles; maintain consistency and quality. Build authority in your niche.

- https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/7358659?hl=en
- 18% of all traffic comes from AMP. Avg. Time on Page is good, but Bounce Rate is bad.
- Google Feed became Google Discover in September 2018. It overwhelmingly shows AMP articles. This is the Discover Performance Report in Search Console.

- You will see results of such corrections the very next time the page is crawled. For hreflang tags, you can see in Search Console > International Targeting
- All the major tools – Moz, SEMrush, Screaming Frog – throw errors when URLs are longer than 75 characters. However, the same people also advise us to target long-tail keywords and intent.
- In this post, he has mentioned “SEO site audit” as one of the keywords he’s trying to rank for. Intent matters here. The first three results are tool sites.

- Sites load 8 to 10 seconds slower on mid-level mobiles than high-level smartphones. Users are forgiving. 65% of them think the problem is with their internet connection or mobile carrier. But Googlebot knows the truth.
- https://moz.com/blog/the-technical-seo-renaissance When the browser runs into asynchronous JavaScript, it will pause the DOM or CSSOM construction until the JavaScript completes execution. That’s why it is called “render blocking” JavaScript.
- Use ALL of these, not just one you prefer.
- Lighthouse is an open source, automated tool (Chrome Extension) for improving the quality of web pages. Used by Page Speed Insights & Chrome DevTools.

- SEO is life.
- Whatever keeps your client going.
- Whatever I just spewed out here, I only learnt yesterday. Not “learnt” – “stole”. So we’ll have a new form of QA. You can ask a question and I’ll ask someone from the audience who is really knowledgeable or faced and solved that problem before to have a go at answering it first. Even if you’re stuck in the middle of the night with an SEO problem, feel free to call me; because I never answer my phone. So if you want an answer, tweet at me.
