# SEO Improvements for Roo Code Website
2+
3+
This document outlines the SEO improvements implemented to help index the Roo Code website in Google search results.
4+
5+
## Changes Made
6+
7+
### 1. robots.txt File
8+
9+
- **Location**: `public/robots.txt`
10+
- **Purpose**: Guides search engine crawlers on how to index the site
11+
- **Features**:
12+
- Allows all major search engines (Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo)
13+
- Points to sitemap location
14+
- Sets crawl delay for polite crawling
15+
- Blocks unnecessary paths like `/api/`, `/_next/`, etc.
16+
17+
### 2. Dynamic Sitemap
18+
19+
- **Location**: `src/app/sitemap.ts` (replaces static `sitemap.xml`)
20+
- **Purpose**: Provides search engines with a complete list of all pages
21+
- **Features**:
22+
- Automatically generates sitemap with all pages
23+
- Includes proper priority and change frequency settings
24+
- Updates automatically when new pages are added
25+
26+
### 3. Enhanced Metadata
27+
28+
- **Location**: `src/app/layout.tsx`
29+
- **Improvements**:
30+
- Added comprehensive keywords for AI coding, VS Code, development tools
31+
- Enhanced Open Graph and Twitter Card metadata
32+
- Added proper robots meta tags for better crawling
33+
- Added Google verification placeholder (needs actual verification code)
34+
- Improved title templates for consistent branding
35+
36+
### 4. Structured Data (Schema.org)
37+
38+
- **Location**: `src/app/layout.tsx`
39+
- **Added Schema Types**:
40+
- **Organization**: Company information, contact details, address
41+
- **WebSite**: Site information with search action
42+
- **SoftwareApplication**: Product details for the VS Code extension
43+
44+
### 5. Page-Specific Metadata
45+
46+
- **Enterprise Page**: Added comprehensive metadata with proper titles and descriptions
47+
48+
## Next Steps for Complete Google Indexing
49+
50+
### 1. Google Search Console Setup (REQUIRED)
51+
52+
1. Go to [Google Search Console](https://search.google.com/search-console/)
53+
2. Add property for `https://roocode.com`
54+
3. Verify ownership using one of these methods:
55+
- **HTML file upload** (recommended)
56+
- **HTML tag** (replace placeholder in layout.tsx)
57+
- **DNS record**
58+
- **Google Analytics**
59+
- **Google Tag Manager**
60+
61+
### 2. Submit Sitemap
62+
63+
After Search Console verification:
64+
65+
1. Go to "Sitemaps" section
66+
2. Submit: `https://roocode.com/sitemap.xml`
67+
68+
### 3. Request Indexing
69+
70+
1. Use "URL Inspection" tool in Search Console
71+
2. Request indexing for key pages:
72+
- `https://roocode.com/`
73+
- `https://roocode.com/enterprise`
74+
- `https://roocode.com/evals`
75+
76+
### 4. Monitor Performance
77+
78+
- Check "Coverage" report for indexing issues
79+
- Monitor "Performance" for search appearance
80+
- Review "Enhancements" for structured data validation
81+
82+
## Additional Recommendations
83+
84+
### 1. Content Optimization
85+
86+
- Ensure all pages have unique, descriptive titles
87+
- Add more content to pages that are content-light
88+
- Include relevant keywords naturally in content
89+
90+
### 2. Technical SEO
91+
92+
- Ensure fast loading times
93+
- Optimize images with alt text
94+
- Implement proper heading hierarchy (H1, H2, H3)
95+
96+
### 3. Link Building
97+
98+
- Add internal links between related pages
99+
- Consider getting backlinks from relevant tech blogs/sites
100+
- Submit to relevant directories (GitHub, VS Code marketplace, etc.)
101+
102+
### 4. Social Signals
103+
104+
- Share content on social media
105+
- Encourage community engagement
106+
- Consider creating blog content about AI development
107+
108+
## Verification
109+
110+
To verify the improvements are working:
111+
112+
1. **Test robots.txt**: Visit `https://roocode.com/robots.txt`
113+
2. **Test sitemap**: Visit `https://roocode.com/sitemap.xml`
114+
3. **Validate structured data**: Use [Google's Rich Results Test](https://search.google.com/test/rich-results)
115+
4. **Check meta tags**: Use browser dev tools or online SEO checkers
116+
117+
## Expected Timeline
118+
119+
- **Immediate**: Technical improvements are live
120+
- **1-2 weeks**: Google discovers and starts crawling
121+
- **2-4 weeks**: Pages begin appearing in search results
122+
- **1-3 months**: Full indexing and ranking improvements
123+
124+
## Notes
125+
126+
- The Google verification meta tag in `layout.tsx` contains a placeholder
127+
- Replace `"google-site-verification-placeholder"` with actual verification code from Search Console
128+
- Monitor Search Console regularly for any crawling issues
129+
- Consider implementing Google Analytics for additional insights
