SEO Coding Mega Course (Step-by-Step) • Blogger-Ready • EmpiricalTen

Updated • Kathmandu, Nepal

Introduction: Learn SEO as Code

Search engines read code. When you encode intent with semantic HTML, metadata, JSON-LD, and performance hints, you turn content into a machine-understandable asset. This mega course teaches a practical, testable approach—ideal for classrooms, workshops, and self-study.

Outcome: build an SEO-ready Blogger post, validate rich results, pass Core Web Vitals, and generate a professional certificate.

Step 1 — Foundations

  • On-Page: Titles, meta descriptions, headings, anchors, alt text.
  • Technical: Robots, sitemaps, canonical, redirects, status codes.
  • Performance: LCP, INP, CLS; responsive, lazy images.
  • Content/Intent: match user tasks; E-E-A-T signals.
  • Off-Page: backlinks, social previews (OG/Twitter), mentions.

Step 2 — Semantic HTML (Clean, Readable)

<h1>Learn SEO Coding: Complete Guide</h1>
<h2>1. Search Intent</h2>
<p>Map keywords to user tasks and questions...</p>
<h2>2. Structure</h2>
<ul><li>Intro</li><li>Steps</li><li>FAQ</li></ul>
<img src="hero.jpg" alt="SEO coding overview" width="1200" height="630" loading="lazy" />

Step 3 — Crawling (robots.txt & Sitemap)

Blogger exposes a sitemap at /sitemap.xml. Disallow thin search pages to avoid index bloat.

User-agent: *
Disallow: /search
Allow: /

Sitemap: https://empiricalten.blogspot.com/sitemap.xml

Step 4 — Metadata, Social Cards, Canonical

<title>SEO Coding Mega Course | EmpiricalTen</title>
<meta name="description" content="Long, step-by-step SEO course with JSON-LD, CWV, and a certificate." />
<link rel="canonical" href="https://empiricalten.blogspot.com/seo-coding-mega-course" />
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />
<meta property="og:title" content="SEO Coding Mega Course | EmpiricalTen" />
<meta property="og:image" content="https://.../cover.jpg" />
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image" />

Step 5 — Structured Data (JSON-LD)

Add Article, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList, and Course when appropriate. Validate with Rich Results Test.

<script type="application/ld+json">
{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[
{"@type":"Question","name":"What does robots.txt do?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"It manages crawling access for user-agents."}}
]}</script>

Step 6 — Core Web Vitals (LCP/INP/CLS)

  • LCP: compress hero; set explicit width/height; avoid render-blocking CSS/JS.
  • INP: reduce JS work; avoid long tasks; use event delegation.
  • CLS: pre-allocate space; use aspect-ratio; avoid late-loading banners without space.
Audit with PageSpeed Insights and Lighthouse regularly.

Step 7 — Information Architecture & Internal Links

Link pillar pages to clusters. Use descriptive anchors (e.g., “JSON-LD Article markup”).

Step 8 — Content & E-E-A-T

Show experience (screenshots, experiments), expertise (citations), authority (author/brand), trust (policies/contact).
