The main criterion that SEO demands for better crawling by the Google algorithm is faster loading of the website. The web designers should use the following design tips to make the site SEO compatible.
      • Optimizing the font size as fancy fonts can make a site heavy and slow to load.
      • Use the lightweight CDN fronts from Google.
      • Bundle multiple fonts to reduce the frequency of HTTP calls.
      • Use fast and lighter CSS animations instead of the ones based on JavaScript.
      • Delayed loading of animations until the user scrolls to the required section.
      • Optimize images using JS task runner and other tools thereby reducing their size.
      • Load font based images using SVG.
      • Use minification of codes using a task runner like GruntJS to reduce the size of the webpages.
      Very well mentioned, thanks for sharing the post...

      I agree with you, the work of a web designer in as far as SEO is concerned is to ensure that the website is responsive. It allows for quick loading which is a critical element in as far as SEO is concerned. The rest of the job should be left to the SEO expert.

    When any web designer works a site then he works also on image alt tags, heading tags, speed optimization, as well as AMP.
    These things also impact the SEO factors.

    Step #1: Google Page Speed - Google gives you a tool that shows you a score of 1 to 100. 100 meaning you are doing a good job and 1 meaning you are doing a terrible job.

    -Write for humans first, search engines second.

    Bloggers and content creators are going back to the old method of SEO, wherein keywords meant to drive search results surpassed the real qualities of engaging, valuable content.

    There are several factors but I think the structure of a website matters a lot. The designer must keep in mind that don't extend any page of a website more than 4 clicks from the homepage otherwise visitor will lose interest. Keep your website professional and easily navigable for the viewer.

  • There are in-page and off-page SEO. Based on my experience any web developer should have good knowledge in in-page SEO to build a website accordingly. We can say it is kind of website stander nowadays.

    What is in-page SEO? for WordPress it's mean install SEO plug-in and SEO-friendly theme. For websites in general, you should make add sitemap builder to your website to generate a sitemap automatically if it big. and you can make it manually if the website is tiny.

    Mobile support is related to UX and SEO. If the website is not supported mobile, then will be penalize by google.
