On-page SEO updates #9

Open v-mepa opened 4 years ago

v-mepa commented 4 years ago

In order to rank higher on SERP (Search engine result page) and get more organic user traffic I would recommend to practice on-page SEO by optimizing individual web pages for .NET Foundation. These play key role in making web pages/content visible on various search engines. One can start with updating/optimizing following:

Keyword research (very important to know which keywords are driving traffic to the website and include them in most of the above strategically to gain more traffic)

I will be happy to help you with above updates.

I discussed this with @BethMassi and she likes the idea of having your help here after the new site is finished! @clairernovotny any thoughts?

clairernovotny commented 4 years ago

Certainly happy to have help improving the site in any way we can!

This is a great idea. I'd recommend splitting out the issue into separate issues that can be done separately. Smaller iterations are preferable over larger changes.

I have already created an issue for canonicals #116 and an issue for the H1 elements #115

@leeenglestone I have started the website audit and will start creating issues here from this week. I will keep you posted. Happy to know that you have already initiated it :)

Hi @v-mepa You may find my previous audit of the site useful I did here https://www.slideshare.net/LeeEnglestone/net-foundation-website-suggestions-for-improvement

And some background info behind it here https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/can-i-help-open-letter-net-foundation-lee-englestone-/

I made a number of these improvements to the old site, and unfortunately they did not carry over into the new version of the site @clairernovotny @mairaw @BethMassi ?

Never mind, I don't mind making the same changes again. If you get to these changes first great, I don't mind reviewing your pull requests and hopefully vice versa.

@clairernovotny Do you know if my GitHub permissions have been applied to the new website git repo?

Have the sub-issues in this main one been covered by various PR's or is there still outstanding work to do?
