Recommendations for optimizing your indexing strategy.
Performance & Technical SEO
Improve Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS).
Return fast 200 responses, reduce redirect chains.
Use HTTPS everywhere and consistent canonical tags.
Discovery & Structure
Maintain fresh, well-structured sitemaps.
Build topical clusters with strong internal linking.
Avoid crawl traps (infinite filters/pagination).

Unique value, clear headings, and media with alt text.
Add JSON-LD where applicable (Article, Product, FAQ).
Keep content updated; reflect lastmod accurately.
Operational Excellence
Automate submissions on publish/update events.
Schedule bulk uploads off-peak and monitor failures.
Review reports weekly; act on failure spikes and latency drifts.
Tag submissions by campaign to measure ROI and iterate faster.
