Slides


  • Always ask yourself how things could’ve been prevented so they don’t happen again in the future.

  • Have better test processes, monitor, educate yourself on best practices and don’t rush updates.

  • Discuss with your peers; this is essential, they may be able to give you tips on how to deal with issues.

  • Involve specialists early on, not when the problems have already happened.

SEO disasters: the good, the bad and the taboo

Key takeaways

Slides
  • Standardise your reporting: set a cadence.

  • Focus on KPI's that the business cares about, not just the SEO's.

  • Monitor for problems: on big sites, problems tend to be a lot worse!

  • Monitor robots.txt: changes are made without you realising.

  • If traffic has dropped, it's usually an internal problem rather than external, so always look internally first.

  • Stay on top of what Google is telling you to fix.
