Indexing of individual URLs less important than overall website performance
Posted: Tue Jan 28, 2025 5:35 am
John Müller recently explained in a Twitter post that too much focus is often placed on the indexing of individual URLs on a website, but the quality of the entire website is not looked at closely enough. This can lead to essential errors being overlooked, while not every case of a non-indexed subpage represents a major problem
In response to a user question on Twitter to John Müller about rcs data australia loading screens, i.e. loading screens that are shown before the content appears, Müller replied that it would be better to show the content straight away. Making users wait unnecessarily because of elaborately designed loading screens would not be very effective.
Anyone who uses Google My Business has certainly already discovered the "Attributes" section. Depending on the company, you can click on various attributes provided there. Be it "Online courses" or "Led by women" to "Accepting new patients" and "LGBT-friendly", i.e. information that has a certain decision-making power for some users. Google has now added suitable icons and new attributes, initially in the American region. A company can now state that it is run by POC (People of Color) and/or war veterans. It remains to be seen whether and to what extent this will be rolled out in other countries.
