### Help Google find your pages

* Ensure that all pages on the site can be reached by a link from another findable page. The referring link should include either text or, for images, an `alt` attribute, that is relevant to the target page. Crawlable links are [`<a>` tags with an `href` attribute](https://support.google.com/search/docs/advanced/guidelines/links-crawlable).

* Provide a [sitemap file](https://support.google.com/search/docs/advanced/sitemaps/overview) with links that point to the important pages on your site. Also provide a page with a human-readable list of links to these pages (sometimes called a site index or site map page).

* Limit the number of links on a page to a reasonable number (a few thousand at most).

* Make sure that your web server correctly supports the `If-Modified-Since` HTTP header. This feature directs your web server to tell Google if your content has changed since we last crawled your site. Supporting this feature saves you bandwidth and overhead.

* When using a content management system (for example, Wix or WordPress), make sure that it creates pages and links that search engines can crawl.

* To help Google fully understand your site's contents, allow all site assets that would significantly affect page rendering to be crawled: for example, CSS and JavaScript files that affect the understanding of the pages. The Google indexing system renders a web page as the user would see it, including images, CSS, and JavaScript files. To see which page assets that Googlebot cannot crawl, use the [URL Inspection tool](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9012289). To debug directives in your robots.txt file, use the [robots.txt Tester](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6062598) tool.

* Allow search bots to crawl your site without session IDs or URL parameters that track their path through the site. These techniques are useful for tracking individual user behavior, but the access pattern of bots is entirely different. Using these techniques may result in incomplete indexing of your site, as bots may not be able to eliminate URLs that look different but actually point to the same page.

* Make your site's important content visible by default. Google is able to crawl HTML content hidden inside navigational elements such as tabs or expanding sections. However, we consider this content less accessible to users, and believe that you should make your most important information visible in the default page view.

* Make a reasonable effort to ensure that advertisement links on your pages do not affect search engine rankings. For example, use [robots.txt](https://support.google.com/search/docs/advanced/robots/intro), `rel="nofollow"`, or `rel="sponsored"` to prevent advertisement links from being followed by a crawler.
