What is Free Broken Links How to?

Technical SEO focuses on website infrastructure and architecture — elements that affect Google's ability to discover, crawl, understand, and index your content. Technical SEO is the foundation upon which all other SEO efforts rest.

Why Does This Matter for SEO?

Even the best content won't rank if Google can't properly crawl or index your website. Poor technical SEO makes all investments in content and backlinks effectively worthless.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is crawl budget and why does it matter?
Crawl budget is the number of pages Google will crawl from your site in a given period. Large sites with many low-quality pages can "exhaust" the crawl budget before important pages get crawled.
What's the difference between crawling and indexing?
Crawling is Google discovering and reading pages. Indexing is Google adding pages to its database. Pages must be crawled before they can be indexed.
Why isn't my page indexed by Google?
Could be robots.txt blocking it, a noindex tag, canonical pointing elsewhere, thin content, or server errors (5xx).
What is a redirect chain and why avoid it?
A redirect chain is a series of redirects (A→B→C→D). Each hop reduces PageRank transfer and slows loading. Always redirect directly to the final URL.
Are hreflang tags part of technical SEO?
Yes. Hreflang tags tell Google which language version to show users in different countries/languages — crucial for multilingual websites.
