How should a website be prepared for SEO?

SEO is not keyword stuffing. The site must first be crawlable: fast load, mobile readiness, clean URLs, title/meta structure, sitemap, and correct redirects. Without that base, great content still struggles. Public-facing work sits under web & software; visibility planning under digital marketing / SEO.

1) Technical foundation

• Fast mobile loads; no bloated scripts or huge images
• One meaningful title and meta description per important page
• Clean URLs, HTTPS, working 301s (no broken or duplicate URL chaos)
• XML sitemap + robots; money pages not accidentally noindexed
• Structured data (Organization, FAQ, service) used with restraint

Technical debt makes content production wasteful. Local intents need healthy landing pages such as Antalya web design.

2) Information architecture

Each important intent (service, location, problem, product) deserves its own page and clear heading. Strengthening one URL beats copying thin text ten times. Internal links guide users and crawlers.

1. List target queries / questions (commercial intent first)
2. Assign one owner page per target
3. Build home → service → sub-intent / FAQ paths
4. Prefer proof and process over thin city clones

Help centre and blog support money pages; they should not replace them. Related reading: SEO & ads, website.

3) Trust and conversion

Without proof, process, FAQs, and contact paths, traffic does not become leads. SEO’s job is qualified demand, not vanity visits. Form + phone + WhatsApp must work on mobile with clear CTAs.

Practical start checklist

1. Money-page list (10–20 URLs is enough)
2. One main topic + H1 per page
3. Close the technical checklist (speed, mobile, sitemap, redirects)
4. Internal link skeleton (menu + body, light footer)
5. Conversion: form/WhatsApp test, thank-you path, measurement
6. Then iterate with steady, focused content updates

A measurable page strategy beats a “magic plugin.” To audit or rebuild foundations, get in touch.
