I have been struggling with SEO for the last year and quite frankly am not a big fan. However, I have an online business that grew from 0 to around 300 visits a month, mostly social media visits. After watching some of your videos my hate for SEO Is over and I am sure my website will reflect that this year. As they say, better late than never. I love this SEO in 24 video and it was easy to do all the steps. You make SEO feel lighter and easier. THANK YOU.

A very helpful video! I only have one question regarding the language everything should be written in: Should I write it in English or in my native language since my clients would search in Google in my native language?

@CharlotteOHara1 3 ай бұрын

Great question! If the entire website is in another language then I would set up all the SEO settings in that other language because that's what your ideal website visitors will be using when doing online searches. However if your website is multilingual then that's a different story.... SEM rush has a great article on multilingual SEO that you can read HERE www.semrush.com/blog/multilingual-seo/

Thank you for the great video. One question, what is the vertical character after the %s in the "SEO TITLE FORMAT"? That's not showing on mine.

It's just a dash - on my Macbook it's above the Enter key (right side of the keyboard) :)

Very helpful, thank you! Does it matter if it is linked to your personal Google account or a business account? I would like to keep it separate from my personal account.

@CharlotteOHara1 4 ай бұрын

You can link your Squarespace website to your business account/email address, that's fine :)

@leegee123 2 ай бұрын

Great video- I have a question please- I updated me SEO appearance but when I search my site in Google it hasn’t updated- I waited 2 days but still no update- Google uses information from another part of my website 🤷🏽‍♀️

@CharlotteOHara1 2 ай бұрын

Hey Lee! It's not uncommon for Google to take longer than 2 days to re-crawl & re-index your Squarespace website, still showing the old info from your site in the meantime. Just sit tight for a few more days :) you can always manually request if you need but patience is what i'd recommend haha

Glad you found this video helpful! are you talking about an image block used in a blog post?

@user-xx8zx1ek8q 4 ай бұрын

No I’m just talking bout the image in the blog or the website when you double click it … also what services do you offer; as I already have a site, but could do with some coaching on how to improve , are you familiar with semrush? Wondering how much u Charge PH for training and help with my seo if that’s something u do

Hi, so to connect like you did in the very beginning it is asking for a gmail account. I do not have a gmail account, must I create one? Thank you!

Hi Harmonia! I believe yes you need a Google account, you can learn more about the process of connecting your Squarespace website with Google Search Console HERE support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/205813918-Verifying-your-site-with-Google-Search-Console

I’m sorry, I can’t find the link to connect to Google My Business page. I offer online courses, no brick and mortar location. Do you still recommend it?

@CharlotteOHara1 5 ай бұрын

Hi! Google Business is more important for businesses with physical locations that want to show up in local search results. So if your focus is online courses isn't not super necessary for you. I have a few videos on that topic here on my channel so watch those for more info :)
