They make me more productive, more efficient, and more\u00a0likely\u00a0to get things done. I use checklists for everything, including performing SEO. After all, there&#8217;s a lot that goes into search engine optimization. With a checklist, I can be sure that nothing slips through the cracks.<\/p>\n<p>Checklists also keep our <a href=\"http:\/\/ocean19.com\/chicago-seo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SEO team in Chicago<\/a> on the same page. In the last 10 years, I&#8217;ve noticed that SEO companies agree on about 80% of SEO tactics. The\u00a0remaining\u00a020% varies from SEO company to SEO company and from SEO specialist to SEO specialist.\u00a0However in an agency where everyone is under the same roof, the left hand must know what the right hand is doing. Many SEO projects start with a new website, and that means that web designers are passing designs on to web developers, and then web developers often work with or pass on the optimization stuff to the SEO team. This leaves lots of cracks for SEO components to fall through. However, if everyone is using a checklist, those cracks will get smaller and smaller, and eventually they may even\u00a0disappear.<\/p>\n<p>Below are three SEO checklists that every SEO company or SEO specialist should have and use for every project. Download them, save them,\u00a0reuse\u00a0them, and share them with your team.<\/p>\n<h2>#1. The Website SEO Checklist<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mysiteauditor.com\/resources\/free-seo-checklist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"box-shadow: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/mysiteauditor.com\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/free-seo-website-checklist.jpg\" alt=\"Free SEO Website Checklist\" width=\"314\" height=\"212\" \/><\/a>This SEO checklist will make sure that all global SEO components of your website are completed. Each item on this list is essential to how well Google understands, crawls, and essentially views your entire website. It will help robots find every important web page and it will let them know which web pages to ignore. So, before launching any website, always fill out this\u00a0free Website SEO Checklist\u00a0to make sure nothing falls through the cracks.<\/p>\n<h2>#2. The Landing Page SEO Checklist<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mysiteauditor.com\/resources\/free-seo-checklist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"box-shadow: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/mysiteauditor.com\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/free-web-page-seo-audit.jpg\" alt=\"Free Landing Page SEO Checklist\" width=\"314\" height=\"212\" \/><\/a>This checklist helps you properly optimize a specific web page or landing page. After all, <strong>search engines rank web pages, not websites<\/strong> in their organic search results. In other words, <strong>major searches engines want to connect their users with the most relevant web page within a website<\/strong>. Before launching any new web page, blog post, or landing page, always fill out this\u00a0free web page SEO checklist\u00a0to make sure nothing falls through the cracks. This could be the difference between page #1 or not.<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[ !function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=\/^http:\/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+':\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs'); \/\/ ]]><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>#3.

With the rise of mobile technology, local search is more important than ever. Optimizing your website for local is also a quick way of getting ranked on page #1 of Google because local results often come right before organic\u00a0results. So before launching a new website or web page make sure they are both optimized for local search.<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[ !function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=\/^http:\/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+':\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs'); \/\/ ]]><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>How to download our 100% free SEO checklists:<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mysiteauditor.com\/resources\/free-seo-checklist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Free SEO Checklist<\/a>\u00a0download page by clicking <a href=\"https:\/\/mysiteauditor.com\/resources\/free-seo-checklist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Share the page by clicking &#8220;PAY WITH A TWEET&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Your download will automatically start!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[ !function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=\/^http:\/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+':\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs'); \/\/ ]]><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you&#8217;re like me then checklists are an essential part of life.
