Understanding SEO
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization and is a set of ways and tools to improve your website's content for search engines like Google or Bing.
A simple way to think of SEO is the image and text shown when searching or sharing for a website or page.
Example:
Set up general SEO for a Durable site
The general SEO configuration can be found on the Home page setup:
Go to Website > Edit.
Click "Manage pages" at the top and click the gear icon next to the page title.
Scroll to the SEO section to change the image and description.
Notice that when creating a new page, a specific SEO is also already generated, so if you want to edit this, you can edit it in the above section.
This is how the page settings menu looks like without any SEO:
You can add it by clicking "Generate SEO" or Add SEO manually.
Set up indexing and add the header HTML code from Google.
Verification
Open Google Search Console and add the website URL.
Don't know your website URL? Please go to Website> Settings in the Durable dashboard to see the primary domain.
Copy the HTML tag here.
In another browser tab, go to Website > Settings in the Durable dashboard. Paste the HTML tag in the Header section, and click "Save."
Go back to the Google Search Console page and click "Vefify."
Verification is finished.
Property
Next, click Go to Property.
Click Sitemaps. Type "sitemap" and click submit. It may need a few minutes or a refresh to see it successfully added.
Inspect the URL
Click URL inspection on the left-hand side.
Type your website URL in the search bar and hit enter.
Click "REQUEST INDEXING."
Your website URL was added to a priority crawl queue. Submitting a page multiple times will not change its queue position or priority.
The website will appear in Google Search after several days to a few weeks (depending on Google servers propagation, this could take longer).
For details about Google Search Console, please see the Google Search Console Help Centre.
