What is Technical SEO?

Technical SEO refers to optimizing your website for crawling and indexing which also includes any technical process meant to improve search visibility.

It helps search engines access, crawl, interpret and index your website without any problems by optimizing the infrastructure of your website.

Technical SEO doesn’t deal directly with the content of the site, but instead deals with sitemaps, meta tags, JavaScript indexing, linking, keyword research and more.

Why is Technical SEO Important?
