Abstract Technical SEO is the process of enhancing a website's format from the starting so that search engines can properly crawl and index it. Technical SEO is concerned with the site's configuration and aspects such as XML sitemaps, data formats, page speed, URL structure, navigation, robots.txt, and so on. In the following, we'll take a look at each of these essential SEO technical elements and why they are essential for any website. SEO is without a doubt essential to the success of your site. It's the backbone of your site that holds it together. Underlining the importance of creating an effective information strategy for improving organic results visibility, technical and structural improvements to your website can add a lot of value to your company. You can simply differentiate your online presence by paying special attention to the technical elements of SEO. Here are some of the most important areas of technical SEO:

What is Technical SEO Anything technical to improve search rankings - site indexing to help crawl bots. How do search engines "read" my website? Search engines work through three main processes; crawl, index and ranking. • Crawl - Search engines deploy a team of crawlers (called crawlers or spiders) to discover new content on the Web. Content may vary in type and includes web pages, images, and videos. They do this by using links that give crawlers a path they can "explore" to pick up anything that may have been added. You can encourage search engines to crawl your web pages at a more frequent rate by aiming to boost your crawl budget. • Index -When these bots find new content, they add it to the search engine's "index", which is essentially a huge database of URLs that they've built up from crawling. When a user enters a search query, the search engine then displays the URLs it deems most relevant for that search. • Rank - When a search query is entered, search engines want to display the most relevant content for the user. They use a series of signals to determine if a website they have indexed should show on the results page. The higher the website is ranked, the more the search engine deems that website relevant to the search query.
