Most well-ranking pages have 300+ words of substantive content.

Why this matters

Thin content (<300 words) rarely ranks — Google quality guidelines explicitly call out thin pages.

Very low ratio suggests heavy framework overhead or boilerplate.

Why this matters

Informational: ratio of visible text bytes to total HTML bytes. Very low ratios suggest excessive markup overhead.

A canonical URL that redirects sends mixed signals to search engines.

Why this matters

A canonical URL that itself redirects sends mixed signals to Google — link equity may not consolidate as intended.

When the canonical link points to a URL that 301-redirects elsewhere, Google has to choose: follow the canonical chain or treat the redirect as authoritative. Behavior is inconsistent. Set canonical to the FINAL destination URL (post-redirect) so the signal is unambiguous.

Search engines use filenames as a signal. Rename to descriptive names like 'team-photo.jpg'.

Why this matters

Most image filenames are non-descriptive (hash/IMG_X) — small SEO miss for Image Search ranking.
