Challenges

Saffron Edge started identifying all the problems by conducting an in-depth audit. The client struggled to get more traffic on their page due to their high load time, canonical content issues, XML sitemap errors, and uncrawled pages. They were facing website and content-related issues and wanted us to improve their website with less load time, a better health score, and ranking.
