A Busby SEO Test Tips for Web Crawler

When a Web Spider Crawler visits your site, it is there to read your title, description and content.  What it doesn’t want to do is wade though pages of code in order to find a few lines of content. There are two reasons why this is bad:

1. The web crawler may think you don’t have enough content to put any importance into your site and, if it doesn’t think your site is important, then it will not list you too high in the returned search results.
2. It looks to the crawler that you are trying to hide something (spammers will use code to redirects).  If the crawler doesn’t understand something, it will ignore it and, most likely, your site.


What you should be shooting for is at least a 2/1 ratio in favor of content on 75% of your pages.  This will let the web crawler know your site has some sort of relevance and also gives the crawler more content to index, which it really likes. by Busby SEO Test tips
