Optimisation and Accessibility: Forms

Mar 32008

published by Dan in SEO | SEO Basics with No Comments

One of the biggest stumbling blocks for search engines to access all of a website’s contents is are forms. Often entire pages of submission forms or at least portions of it cannot be crawled by search engines via hyperlinks. This is actually a good thing if you specifically want that form to not be indexed by search engines (like for credit card information forms). However, in certain cases, when the content does not pertain to sensitive information, it makes sense to ensure that the content can still be indexed by search engines. Make sure that these forms can be accesses through a link so that search engines can crawl these pages.

Aside from making sure that the they can be accessed by search engines you should also make sure that they are error free so that users can also access them. There is no point in having the page be indexed by a search engine and showing up in SERPs if the users that find it through search are unable to use the form. Though this falls more of under web design as I have mentioned repeatedly you can only optimise a website if it does not contain too critical errors. Testing and debugging should always be done even before you start optimisation.
