They were fixed by commenting out an old link to a "training.html" that doesn't exist anymore (retaining the rest of the page), and changing a link to use mailto for an email address (same as what was used in the careers page)
Added an "s" to an http link, fixed a broken link and found that when on a blog and selecting the category (which will then filter the blogs for that category), it doesn't display anything, this needs to be fixed in the future or the functionality should just be removed.
Integrated @astrojs/sitemap with a filter to exclude pages with query parameters. Added robots meta tag to blog posts to prevent indexing, subsequently updating the Layout.astro to support optional robots meta tag configuration. Finally, I compressed some blog post images to ensure they are not too large when turned into webp's.
For indexing purposes, there can only be a single h1 per page, for most blog posts since there was a title in h1 already, I had to adjust the rest to the rest of the subtitles to be h2 and below, For the careers page, each position listing had an h1, so I changed this. For the "Team" pages, there were two h1's within the greetings that needed to be adjusted. Finally, an adjustment to prettierignore had to be made to avoid a formatting problem.
I've added meta titles, titles, descriptions and h1's to help enhance the SEO of multiple pages.
Added meta descriptions to various pages that were missing them (with the help of ai). Prettier also helped to format multiple files.
I increased or decreased the size for meta descriptions to best fit their ability within SEO scores, usually between 100-150 characters. There are also some code formatting adjustments.
Added and modified the length of title metadata in critical pages on the astro website.
Most of these errors were due to the footer not having proper alt text, which is found on most pages. The same can be said for the recommended blog cards and author images, so they now have text too. Two contact us pages also needed alt text for company images.
Had accidently used ' 3 times within descriptions, which I've not adjusted to use ", fixing the error.
I've adjusted the h1's so that they span the whole greetings title, allowing them to include the important SEO info!
