Still working through Bruce Clay's checklist 12/04/2016

Text Navigation

There is text navigation. I am not using any Javascript or Flash in my site. 

Sitemaps

We added the XML sitemap in class.

I have added a new HTML sitemap now also:




Robots.txt


I just added a robots.txt file to my local root folder.


Keyword Strategy and Research

The keywords I am targeting for this project are 'Creative Multimedia Programming.'

I used Bruce Clay's version of SEOToolSet Keyword Suggestion Tool. These were the results. It looks like the word 'Programming' has the highest click-through-rate.

Linking Strategy

I have tried to keep links as natural as possible and not link to anything unnecessary.

I linked all the links in my sitemap correctly now. I'm not trying to cram my site full of any unnecessary links.  

Server Configuration

I used Bruce Clay's free 'Check Server Page Tool' and all seems to be ok with it.




Static URLs

Bruce says "Complex, dynamic URLs could be a problem. If your URLs have more than two query string parameters and/or dynamic pages aren’t getting indexed and/or you have a lot of duplicate content, consider converting them to static URLs."

I don't have any duplicate content in my site. It is original content for the most part with links to related external resources. 

Static Content on Home Page

All of the content on the home page will stay the same. I will not be updating it in any way. 

No SPAM Tactics

I have read over below guidelines and I believe that my website is in line with these: Google Webmaster Guidelines, Bing Webmaster Guidelines and Google accepts for SEO.







Duplicate Content

I did a search in CopyScape.com and no results were found. Therefor I believe that I do not have duplicate content.
