SEO Checklist

a list that you can use to help optimize your website

Content

It will determine if you meet the minimum content requirement to be listed in their directory. The content on your page needs to have some “BULK” to it . By this we mean that you should write multiple paragraphs on your page using relevant words to what it is that you want to be listed under. There is no SET number of keywords that you should use, but we recommend having at least 300-500 words on all of your web pages
