<p>I can't help think that running scripts when the user interacts with the page will increase the chance of them interfering with INP.</p> <p>Bots tend not to interact with a page, so don't delay scripts that generate anything you want the bots to see. e.g. structured data in GTM, menus with links, reviews or content.</p>

<p>The significant shift is caused by the big top ad. Initially, there is no space for it, but then suddenly, the space is allocated.</p> <p>If I block adsbygoogle.js then the shift does not happen.</p> <p>You can fix it by preallocating the space needed for that add in the HTML or initial CSS.</p>

<p>Having two URLs with the same content is a different issue. They will compete with each other.</p> <p>I suspect you want to drop or redirect the /welcome and have that content only on your home page. Then update all links to /welcome so they go directly to the home page.</p>

<p>LLMs (e.g. ChatGPT) can only answer from the information they have already scraped from the web. If there is a lack of accurate answers they will probably make one up.</p> <p>And I think this is the case. I've heard a few talk about rating and review counts.</p> <p>I think you understand the meaning behind both, and I agree with your conclusion.</p> <p>Google does not report issues with them because their rich snippets only care about the ratings.</p> <p>I think, behind the scenes, they do look into more details to verify what is marked up. Are the ratings on the page, are reviews visible on the page, can people add reviews etc.</p>

<p>It depends.</p> <p>But it is typically best to limit the crawling and indexing of facets.</p> <p>The main thing you want to do is provide routes to your products that each add to what the product is. e.g. category, sub category, brand.</p> <p>Avoid creating too many combinations, as that adds work for Google.</p> <p>In particular, make sure you don't suggest that Google crawls different sort orders, page sizes and other things that just repeat the same information in a different way.</p> <p>As it depends, check your Search Console to see if you have indexing issues with those pages.</p>

<p>Your wrong page needs to return a 404 HTTP status code to tell Google it does not exist. Then goog will report it as out of the index due to it being a 404.</p> <p>You should 301 redirect all your www. pages to their equivalent without the www. That will stop you from having duplicate pages that are not indexed. They will then be reported as 301ing which is fine.</p> <p>If you use canonical tags, have the pages canonicalise to themselves.</p>

<p>You can't do a 301 redirect in JavaScript. It is a status code for a response from the server.</p> <p>If this is for SEO, make sure the pages canonical tag is for the URL without the parameters. That's the next strongest signal to search engines.</p> <p>If you just want users to not see the ugly url, just change it in the address bar. History state does that I think.</p> <p>If you really want to redirect the user to the page without the parameters, you can in JavaScript. It is not 301 redirect, it's a JavaScript redirect, but search engines typically treat it the same.</p>

<p>Basic means you send nothing until consent is granted for the product in question. For example, you will not send GA4 events until analytics is granted.</p> <p>Advanced means you always send events. i.e. you still send events even if the relevant state is denied.</p> <p>In both modes, you set the current consent states before sending any events.</p>

<p>If you have GTM then window.google_tag_data.ics.entries contains information on the current consent states.</p> <p>A hacky method is to intercept all pushes to the data layer and monitor for consent commands.

<p>@graph is a good approach for entities that are not referenced by anything or are referenced from several places. You can list them all in one @graph instead of creating new scripts for each.</p> <p>Some entities make more sense to be embedded inside other ones, like the address of an Organization.

That got me for a while as well.

How are you connecting it at the finer level. Like per user/session? Is the GA4 date filtered by organic Google search?

If there is no href attribute on the rendered page, then it will be unlikely that bots will follow it.

R makes it a front-end redirect. Without it, there is no redirect, which is what you want. L means last and stops the system from trying to process any more commands.

2) That would be the hard bit. As you are potentially adding multiple products you would need to dynamically build the HTML. The lazy way would be to create and add the outer div, then add the rest of the HTML via innerHTML. But the more robust way would be to create and add all the elements to each other. The json is also quite nested, so it takes some work to pull out the data. In 10 minutes I&#39;m flying out for 3 days, so will probably not be able to help more for a while. Maybe give chatGpt an example json response and the HTML template you want to put the data in, and see what it does
