Why Contentful is a game-changer for SEO
Contentful, a headless CMS, is revolutionising the way we approach SEO. Unlike traditional CMS platforms, Contentful separates content from presentation, allowing for more flexibility and control. This separation means you can optimise your content for search engines without being tied down by design constraints.
Here at iWeb, we’ve seen firsthand how Contentful can boost SEO performance. By allowing for custom metadata, URL structures, and content hierarchies, Contentful provides the tools needed to improve search engine rankings. Our expert solution architects have leveraged these features to help clients achieve significant SEO gains.
How to structure your content for better SEO
Structuring your content effectively is crucial for SEO. With Contentful, you can create a well-organised content hierarchy that search engines love. Start by using clear, descriptive headings and subheadings. This not only helps with SEO but also improves user experience.
The team at iWeb recommends using Contentful’s content types and fields to create a logical structure. For example, you can use different content types for blog posts, product pages, and landing pages. This makes it easier for search engines to understand and index your content. Our talented team has used this approach to help clients in various industries, from foodservice ecommerce to builders merchants online stores.
Optimising metadata and URLs in Contentful
Metadata and URLs play a significant role in SEO. Contentful allows you to customise these elements easily. Ensure your titles, descriptions, and keywords are relevant and compelling. This will improve your click-through rates and search engine rankings.
iWeb’s 29 years of e-commerce experience have shown us the importance of well-optimised URLs. Use short, descriptive URLs that include your target keywords. Avoid using numbers or special characters.
