Don’t settle for a slow site that forces potential customers to wait on you (because they won’t). Let us help you achieve faster page load speeds, higher user engagement, and more.
SEO code optimization is the part of the technical SEO process that deals with analyzing all of those coded languages to see how they communicate with each other to produce a functional and aesthetic page suitable for both humans and computers.
Optimizing code for SEO involves identifying areas of opportunity and correcting them to send the desired positive signals to search engines explaining what the page is about, if it’s able to be indexed, and if it’s worthy of being ranked.
Without an organized, functional code your site may not qualify for being indexed or ranked in SERPs. Our SEO code optimization services play a critical role in overall site performance.
Here are the primary benefits you’ll receive through our SEO code optimization services:
We analyze your site beginning with the low hanging fruit that will get your site recognized by search engines for its value immediately.
As we progress, we take deeper dives into site assets that could be slowing down site pages or even blocking search engines from receiving data necessary for processing the page at all.
A few areas we focus on when we provide SEO code optimization services include:
Optimizing HTML source code for SEO has the highest immediate impact and it’s able to be manipulated without interfering with the functional code that makes data transmitting elements like contact forms, checkout pages, or secure portals work.
Here, we focus on optimizing essential metadata elements like title and header tags, page description, internal linking and anchor text, image attributes, etc.
Each element is loaded individually but if it’s not organized to perfection there is potential for nothing to load or for it to load at a snail’s pace.
We check to make sure that there are no massive assets placed above critical scripts that need to be read first in order for the page to be processed and loaded in a timely manner.
If there are we’ll recommend moving them down in the source code or using a code attribute to define the order in which the asset should be read.
Others might include design languages like CSS and programming languages like JavaScript. During our SEO code optimization process, we review the language resources on a site.
We’ll recommend removing redundant data or code that is unnecessary for the site’s overall performance. In other words, code that’s slowing the site down without any added benefit.
For images over a certain number of bytes, we’ll recommend image compression which is a reduction to the file size of the image. We want image file size to be a low as possible without sacrificing image quality.
For sites that are image heavy and hosting locally, we may recommend creating an image sprite or moving to a CDN.
These recommendations will save bandwidth by reducing the number of server requests it’ll take to load all of the images keeping page speed high and server load time low.
This is one that search engines understand really well and is almost an incentivized bonus for a website but not because search engines give the site more credit for using it, they just appear more credible for doing so.
Google refers to structured data markup elements as “rich snippets.” These rich snippets are the search results with the star ratings attached or the knowledge panels with complete company data available.
We’ll review a site to make sure its structured data is intact so that it’ll stand out in SERPs.
