technical-seo
Master the technical foundations of search engine optimization by learning how to properly configure meta tags, structured data markup, and site crawlability settings. This skill walks you through the code-level changes that search engines need to discover, understand, and rank your content effectively.
Technical-seo teaches you to add essential meta tags directly in your HTML head section. Start with the title tag (50–60 characters), meta description (150–160 characters), and viewport tag for mobile responsiveness. Include Open Graph tags for social sharing and robots meta tags to control indexing. Each tag tells search engines what your page is about and how to treat it during crawling and ranking.

Frequently asked questions
AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
How do I implement meta tags for SEO in my website code?
Technical-seo teaches you to add essential meta tags directly in your HTML head section. Start with the title tag (50–60 characters), meta description (150–160 characters), and viewport tag for mobile responsiveness. Include Open Graph tags for social sharing and robots meta tags to control indexing. Each tag tells search engines what your page is about and how to treat it during crawling and ranking.
What is schema markup JSON-LD and why does technical-seo cover it?
Technical-seo includes schema markup JSON-LD examples because structured data helps search engines understand your content's meaning beyond plain text. JSON-LD is a format you embed in your page's head or body to label articles, products, events, or organizations. This markup powers rich snippets in search results and improves your chances of appearing in specialized search features.
How do I set up robots.txt and XML sitemaps correctly?
Technical-seo covers robots.txt setup best practices by showing you how to create a file in your root directory that tells crawlers which pages to access and which to skip. Pair this with an XML sitemap listing all your important URLs and their update frequency. Submit both to search engines via their console tools so they crawl your site efficiently and discover new content faster.
What are Core Web Vitals and how do I optimize them?
Technical-seo addresses Core Web Vitals optimization by explaining LCP (Largest Contentful Paint), INP (Interaction to Next Paint), and CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift). Improve LCP by optimizing images and server response times, reduce INP by minimizing JavaScript blocking, and prevent CLS by reserving space for dynamic elements. These metrics directly affect your search ranking and user experience.
How can I prepare my website for AI search engines using GEO?
Technical-seo introduces GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) techniques to help AI search engines understand your content. Create an llms.txt file in your root directory listing your best content and policies, use E-E-A-T schema markup to signal expertise and trustworthiness, and ensure semantic HTML structure. These steps help AI models index and rank your pages in their results.
What is a canonical tag and when should I use it?
Technical-seo's canonical tag implementation guide explains that canonical tags prevent duplicate content issues by telling search engines which version of a page is the primary one. Add rel="canonical" in your head section pointing to the preferred URL. Use canonicals when you have similar pages, URL parameters, or content syndicated across multiple domains to consolidate ranking signals.

Technical SEO Implementation
This skill is the implementation reference for technical SEO. Use it when you need to add, fix, or optimize SEO elements in code — meta tags, schema markup, Core Web Vitals, crawlability, and GEO.
This skill covers how to implement in code. For the other SEO concerns: - seo — Strategy and planning (keyword research, content architecture, what to build) - seo-content — Writing content (briefs, humanized prose, SERP feature targeting) - seo-audit — Auditing an existing codebase (scan, diagnose, produce action plan)
Metadata
Every indexable page needs these elements correct:
- Title tag: 50-60 chars, primary keyword front-loaded
- Meta description: 120-155 chars, includes CTA
- Canonical: self-referencing or correct target
- Robots: no
