Our takeaways from Crystal:

1. Crystal Carter discussed her definition of SEO: "bending the internet to your will".

  • Clarity is key when it comes to SEO, and communicating with bots.
  • Make sure your website does what it "says on the tin" – keep descriptions concise & clear!


2. With Wix, everyone has a baseline of "SEO starting points":

  • such as dynamic site maps & 
  • structured data. 
  • Customization is also available for more advanced users.

3. Fun SEO terms to understand:

  •  Site maps are important tools that help web crawlers understand a website better.
  •  Internal links can be used to help pages become indexed and increase visibility.

4. Double check your tagging.

  • Be aware of near duplicates in tagging; avoid tags with similar meanings.
  • Clean up tags to save Google’s ‘crawl budget’ for more meaningful content. 

5. Use schema.org to search and study existing schema.

  • Humans and bots alike will be able to see and understand the story being told through blogs, images, and technical SEO.
  • Consistent meta tags, links and data on a website help search engines identify the website's identity and authority on the subject.
