Site Redesign Recommended Guidelines

Site Redesign Recommended Guidelines

If you are in the process of redesigning a website for your client, here are some recommendations from the Alpha SEO Team:

  1. Make sure the new domain is successfully live and the domain pointing has been successfully implemented for all URL versions [HTTP vs HTTPS vs http://www vs https://www].
  2. 301 redirect should be placed from the old domain to a new one, including internal page level redirects from the old site to the new one. Please note that if the old domain is penalized or has a bad history, then it’s not recommended to put 301. 
  3. SSL must be installed successfully.
  4. Mandatory SEO codes such as Google Analytics, Google Search console [Meta Verification], Bing Meta Verification, Sitemaps updating, Robots, Schema, and Canonical tags must be added (Alpha SEO can help with this of we have sufficient website access)
  5. There should not be any broken links. 
  6. New site must be submitted in Google search console for quick indexing. (Alpha SEO can help with this of we have sufficient website access).
