H1s are now mandatory

I've had an LP that was ranking well in a local searches (between 3 and 7 positions) for years… Then, a few months back, it stopped ranking at all. I had it on a back burner, since this particular KW is not very important for the project, but yesterday I've got around to it.

The page had no H1 tag, only meta title and description. It just didn't make any sense to have a title on this particular LP… but last night I've made an H1 matching meta title, just to see what will happen.

…This morning I woke up with this page ranking №1. From nowhere to first position literally overnight!

Guess it's time to get serious about H1s, despite all the rewriting shenanigans.

PS: Never had a problem ranking content without H1s before.

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
