1

Module 1 — Crawling & Indexing

Control how Google finds and files your pages — because nothing ranks until this works.
5 lessons▾

Lesson 1.1 — Introduction to technical SEO

  • What technical SEO really covers — and why it's the floor everything else is built on.
  • The mindset of making your site effortless for a search engine to process.
  • Why a little technical know-how prevents the disasters that sink whole sites.

Lesson 1.2 — How crawling works and how to control it

  • How to guide Google's crawler to the pages you want found — and away from the ones you don't.
  • The levers that control crawling, and how to pull them without shooting yourself in the foot.
  • Why letting Google crawl everything is sometimes the worst thing you can do.

Lesson 1.3 — Robots.txt and crawl directives

  • The tiny text file with the power to help — or accidentally hide your entire site.
  • How to write crawl directives that do exactly what you mean, no more, no less.
  • The robots.txt blunder that has wiped sites off Google overnight (and how to avoid it).

Lesson 1.4 — Indexing, noindex and the index coverage report

  • The crucial difference between crawling and indexing — and how to control the second.
  • How to read Google's own report on which of your pages made it in, and why some didn't.
  • The "noindex" tag that's a scalpel in the right hands and a chainsaw in the wrong ones.

Lesson 1.5 — XML sitemaps

  • How a sitemap hands Google a tidy menu of everything you want indexed.
  • The way to build and submit one that actually helps (and what to leave out).
  • Why a bad sitemap can confuse Google more than no sitemap at all.
2

Module 2 — Site Architecture & URLs

How your site is wired together — and why good architecture quietly lifts every page on it.
5 lessons▾

Lesson 2.1 — Site structure and crawl depth

  • How the shape of your site decides which pages get found and which get forgotten.
  • Why pages buried too deep might as well not exist — and how to surface them.
  • The structure that spreads authority around your site instead of trapping it on the homepage.

Lesson 2.2 — URL structure and parameters

  • How to keep your URLs clean and logical as a site grows into thousands of pages.
  • The parameter chaos that creates endless duplicate URLs — and how to tame it.
  • Why messy URLs waste Google's time on your site (and time is budget).

Lesson 2.3 — Canonicalisation and duplicate content

  • How to tell Google which version of a page is the "real" one when duplicates exist.
  • The duplicate-content traps that split your rankings without you noticing.
  • The canonical tag that quietly solves problems most site owners don't know they have.

Lesson 2.4 — Redirects done right (301, 302 and chains)

  • The difference between a 301 and a 302 — and why using the wrong one leaks rankings.
  • How to move or remove pages without watching your traffic fall off a cliff.
  • The redirect "chains" that slow your site and bleed authority at every hop.

Lesson 2.5 — Pagination and faceted navigation

  • How to handle long, paginated lists without confusing Google or wasting crawl budget.
  • The filter-and-facet navigation that can spawn millions of junk URLs overnight.
  • The settings that keep big, complex sites crawlable instead of crawling to a halt.

Slow sites lose — here's how to pass Google's speed tests and keep visitors from bouncing.
4 lessons▾

Lesson 3.1 — Page speed and why it matters

  • Why every extra second of load time quietly costs you rankings and customers.
  • The real-world impact of speed on whether people stay or hit the back button.
  • How to think about speed as a feature, not an afterthought.

Lesson 3.2 — Core Web Vitals: LCP, INP and CLS

  • The three numbers Google uses to score your site's experience — explained in plain English.
  • What "good" looks like for each, and the one that replaced the old metric everyone knew.
  • How these vitals translate directly into how Google sees your site's quality.

Lesson 3.3 — Diagnosing and fixing performance issues

  • How to find exactly what's slowing your pages down — and what's just background noise.
  • The highest-impact speed fixes that move the needle without a developer army.
  • The tools that pinpoint problems so you fix the right things first.

Lesson 3.4 — Mobile-first indexing

  • Why Google now judges your site by its mobile version — and what that changes.
  • The mobile issues that quietly hold back sites that look fine on a desktop.
  • How to make sure the version Google actually ranks is your best foot forward.

Module 4 — Rendering, Security & Standards

The modern web essentials — JavaScript, security and standards — that decide if your site even shows up right.
3 lessons▾

Lesson 4.1 — JavaScript SEO and rendering

  • The hidden danger of JavaScript: content that humans see but Google might not.
  • How to tell whether your fancy framework is helping or quietly hiding your pages.
  • The rendering choices that keep your content visible to search engines and AI alike.

Lesson 4.2 — HTTPS, security and site health

  • Why a secure site isn't optional — and how the padlock became a ranking signal.
  • The security and health issues that can spook Google and scare off visitors.
  • How to keep your site in good standing so trust never works against you.

  • How to serve the right language and region to the right searchers without confusing Google.

  • How to read your server logs to see exactly what Google does when it visits.
  • The way big sites stop Google wasting its time and get important pages crawled.

  • The end-to-end audit that surfaces every technical issue holding your site back.
