To put it simply, website management is all about ensuring that your website meets the primary goals for which you made it in the first place. As such, the duties of a website manager can be specific to the needs of the client and the website. Aside from providing technical assistance to make sure that it’s running, we can help your site meet a variety of different objectives.

Why is technical SEO important In Website Management?
Aside from ensuring the health of the website, it’s the duty of a website manager might include making sure that the site is working effectively as a lead generation and conversion tool. To that end, optimizing it via technical SEO can be a vital part of our strategy. Technical SEO is the multi-step discipline of making sure the technical side of the site is organized and implemented in a way that can increase the website ranking in search engines.
There is a wide variety of different ways we can optimize the technical side of the website, such as making it faster and easier for search engine bots to crawl and index. Here are just a few of the ways we can help:
Auditing your site
There are a host of SEO auditing software packages such as Screaming Frog, Search Console, Google Analytics, and GTmetrix that can allow a user to find the aspects of the site that are not working, from an SEO standpoint. We use these tools to perform a technical SEO audit to make sure that any red flags are spotted and addressed until the SEO audit no longer brings up any problems.
Checking for Manual penalties
While SEO audit software can easily pick up the automatic penalties that search engines will hand out, there are also human reviews at search engines like Google that will flag sites that are determined to not be in compliance with their guidelines. We check the Search Console to ensure there are no Manual penalties and make the necessary changes to make sure nothing is dragging your site’s search results down.
Fixing the Page Speed
One of the problems the holds pages back from reaching the ranking they should have is having a slow-loading website. Using Google Page Speed Insights, we can ensure that the website is loading quickly and, if it’s not, we will find the reason it’s being slowed down and offer solutions.
Setting Canonical Tags
Setting Canonical tags to make sure that all pages and content are formatted appropriately, allowing searching engine bots to better crawl and index the entirety of the site.

Missing and broken content can lead to SEO penalties. Our duties include finding 404 pages, broken assets such as images, and broken links and offering solutions for each of them.

If the site is not using ALT tags, these will be added. Duplicate meta information will be found and replaced, while we will improve meta information to help with rankings.
