SEO Best Practices

Search engines experience natural indexing delays. It can take several weeks for Google and Bing to crawl and index new content. Maintaining an active site with regular updates helps signal search engines to crawl your site more frequently.

Changing a slug on a published page breaks existing links and negatively impacts your SEO. If you must change a slug, immediately set up a 301 redirect from the old URL to the new one. This preserves your search engine ranking and ensures visitors don't hit a dead end.

When you enable multiple languages, Giant Context automatically generates the proper hreflang tags and includes them in your auto-generated sitemap.xml. You can verify this setup by viewing your sitemap directly in your browser.
