To the Radar gurus, #wehdonesir!
So, I put my SEO nose into why most business/websites in Nigeria struggle to be visible in organic search. In plain words, most businesses in Nigeria have what some of their target audience are looking for when they search (Google for instance). But such websites don’t show up in search results for prospects.
I came up with checklist of common SEO problems that can make websites not to be found easily via search engine. There are many technical SEO and on-page SEO problems that can make your business website not to show up when prospects are searching online for you though.
On this checklist of technical SEO problems, I found 10 of them are very common with Nigerian businesses. They are Website Indexing, Meta Robots ‘NO INDEX’ tag, Page Speed, Robots.txt file, URL Canonicalization (Technical dulpication). I discussed these SEO problems, what they mean, how you can find out if your website has any of them and how you can resolve them here.
The remaining 5 technical SEO problems common with Nigerian websites are Image without Alt text, web links, web form, XML Sitemap, 301 & 302 Redirects. I discussed them and their solutions here.
Read up and thank me later!
