Are FAQ pages relevant anymore?

I'm of the belief that FAQ pages are generally outdated. They're usually a crutch used to cover up poor IA and content strategy. This is the approach taken by many major governments around the world.

If your visitors actually have FAQs, it indicates a failing on your part to properly integrate the answer where they need it, not an opportunity for a new FAQ entry.

By improving customer journies and experiences, there shouldn't be a need for the vast majority of FAQs in the first place.

That said, I constantly hear how important an FAQ page is for SEO, and how many users visit FAQ pages after home pages, etc. But is this really because an FAQ page itself performs or ranks better, or merely because the rest of the site was lacking?

I'd love to discuss further and try to understand if I'm missing a key aspect.

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank? Thanks all! submitted by /u/runtmc2 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/31dJ82b

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
