Canonical Tag.Hreflang Tags Hreflang is an
HTML attribute used to specify the language and
geographical targeting of a webpage. If you have
multiple versions of the same page in different
languages, you can use the hreflang tag to tell
search engines like Google about these
variations. This helps them to serve the correct
version to their users.For example ltlink
rel"alternate" hreflang"en-gb"

Broken links are another signal of poor user
experience. No one wants to click a link and find
that it doesnt take them to the page theyre
expecting.For Example before

This link is removed by the developer end, Now
need to add the 404.html page.Its redirected to
the 404.html page.

Robots.Txt
Bluebashco
Robots.Txt

• Robots.txt files are instructions for search
  engine robots on how to crawl your website. 
• Every website has a crawl budget, or a limited
  number of pages that can be included in a crawl
  so its imperative to make sure that only your
  most important pages are being indexed.
• On the flip side, youll want to ensure your
  robots.txt file isnt blocking anything that you
  want to be indexed.
• Here are some example URLs that you should
  disallow in your robots.txt file
• Temporary files
• Admin pages
• Cart checkout pages
• Search-related pages

Sitemap.XML
Bluebashco
Sitemap.XML
An XML sitemap is a file that lists a websites
important pages, making sure Google can find and
crawl them all. It also helps search engines
understand your website structure. You want
Google to crawl every essential page of your
website. But sometimes, pages end up without any
internal links pointing to them, making them hard
to find. A sitemap can help speed up content
discovery.
