Why is Technical SEO Important for Your Website?

Technical SEO is what keeps your website strong from the inside. It makes sure search engines can easily crawl and index your pages so they can show up in search results. Without it, even high-quality content does not perform well. Slow loading speed, broken links, duplicate content, or weak mobile performance quickly affect rankings and drive visitors away.

These types of issues increase the bounce rate. A website with a high bounce rate cannot get proper traffic and conversions. And we know leads, sales, and conversions are our main goals.

Google Updates for Technical SEO

Google Mobile-Friendly Update (Mobilegeddon) – 2015

Gave ranking boosts to mobile-friendly sites, making mobile optimization a key technical factor.

Google Speed Update – 2018

Page speed became a ranking factor for mobile searches, highlighting the need for fast-loading sites.

Google BERT Update – 2019

While mainly about content understanding, it showed that Google relies on structured, well-optimized sites to interpret context better.

Google Page Experience Update – 2021

Introduced Core Web Vitals (loading speed, interactivity, visual stability) as ranking signals. This was a big push for technical SEO improvements.
