SEO Best Practices


SEO Best Practices


(SEO Best Practices for ASP.NET Web Applications)
  • Provide unique, accurate page Title. Do NOT use stop words like “.com”, particularly
    at the beginning of the Title text.
      Tips:
    • · Have unique title for each page.
    • · Use keywords in title.
  • Include proper Description Meta tags and use meaningful keywords.
  • Standardize the structure of page URLs. Organize pages into categories.
  • Ensure that all the links in your site follow same URL casing format.
    (For example, always use lowercase letters.)
  • Add an <h1> tag to the <body> section of the page to improve page relevancy.
    Use only one <h1> tag per page.
  • Make site navigation easier.
    • Tips:
    • · Use bread crumbs on pages
    • · Use relevant Sitemap
    • · Remove all broken links
  • Create a custom 404 page to be displayed when ‘page is not found’ error occurs.
  • Place an effective Robots.txt file on your server. It tells search engines what
    parts of your website should be indexed and what areas or pages should not be indexed.
  • If pages are still not being indexed, submit them to popular search engines like
    Google, Yahoo, etc. For example, for Google, you may submit a page to be indexed
    at google.com/addurl.
