Technical SEO case studies

One of the key components of a high-performing website is that it should work properly, meaning it needs to be fast, user-friendly, secure, easy to navigate, and free from technical issues or bugs. Many sites are not compliant with search engines or built with SEO in mind, which is where these problems can often occur, resulting in poor performance and preventing the website from being understood and appropriately ranked in search engines.

At FSE Digital, we apply a bespoke, data-driven approach to technical SEO, combining effective strategies and the latest technologies to deliver consistent, lasting results that will benefit your business. From SMEs and market-leading brands to local businesses, we know how to utilise technical SEO to help you achieve the visibility that your website deserves.

The Importance of Technical SEO

Technical SEO refers to optimising certain aspects of a website in order to make it more user and search engine friendly. Trying to succeed with a website that isn’t technically sound is like building a house on uneven ground, without a solid foundation, the problems will inevitably build up and hinder any potential progress that your business might make.

Some of the core factors of technical SEO include but are not limited to;

Crawlability ✅
Page speed
Indexation
Site Security (SSL)
Mobile Friendliness
Meta robots
Language & location
Duplicate content

Structured Data
Site Architecture
Sitemaps
Breadcrumbs
Robots.txt
Javascript
Too many plugins/apps
and much, much more..

SSL security, page speed, and mobile compatibility help search engines to crawl and index the site much more quickly and effectively which can work to positively impact rankings. When it comes to site visitors, making the site faster, easier to navigate, and more responsive helps to enhance and improve the user experience so that they spend more time on site and are more likely to convert to a customer.

As experienced technical SEO consultants, we help to deliver robust strategies that will improve the technical health of your website, maximise visibility in search and ensure your business gets seen by the right people.

What is Technical SEO?

Technical SEO is the optimisation of website infrastructure and elements to improve search engine crawling, indexing, and overall website visibility. Unlike content-focused SEO, which involves optimising text and multimedia content, technical SEO focuses on backend aspects such as website speed, mobile-friendliness, site architecture, structured data, XML sitemaps, and much more. By ensuring that a website is technically sound and accessible to search engine bots, technical SEO helps improve its search engine rankings and user experience.

Is Technical SEO difficult?


While technical SEO may seem complex, it is not inherently difficult, especially with the availability of resources and tools to guide website owners through the process. That said, understanding Technical SEO concepts and implementing best practices does require some learning and technical knowledge, but it is achievable with patience and practice. Luckily for you, our experts are here to take that strain off your shoulders!

Why does Technical SEO matter?


Technical SEO is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it ensures that search engine bots can crawl and index a website effectively, enabling its content to be discovered and ranked in search engine results pages (SERPs). Secondly, Technical SEO directly impacts user experience by improving website speed, mobile responsiveness, and usability, which are factors that search engines consider when determining rankings. Furthermore, technical SEO enhances website accessibility for users with disabilities, aligning with ethical and legal standards. Ultimately, by prioritising technical SEO, businesses can achieve better search engine visibility, attract more organic traffic, and provide a seamless user experience, leading to improved conversions and business success.
