Answer

Questions

Answer

What are some SEO abbreviations/terms that are most relevant to CS/AMs?

SEO, CTR, GSC, GS, GTM, keyword stuffing, crawling, indexing, external links, internal links, clicks, impressions, bounce rate, LSI, long-tail keywords

Shoudl this include a comment section for AMs to submit more terms they would like to know? Or would that more closely align with the FAQ sheet?

 

Should this be interlinked with the AM FAQ doc?

 

 

Decisions

Decision

Why

Decision

Why

Update glossary weekly/monthly?

AMs may have future questions about SEO terms, so we’ll need a running list of SEO terms that can be added onto in the event we don’t cover everything in the initial glossary.
