These answers come from the year-long archive of my previous chatbot that lived on my previous site iamnicola.ai. I’ve curated the most useful sessions—real questions from operators exploring AI workflows, experimentation, and conversion work—and lightly edited them so you get the original signal without the noise.

What technical SEO issues prevent websites from ranking well?
Common technical SEO issues preventing rankings include slow load times, poor Core Web Vitals, crawl errors (404s, server errors), blocked by robots.txt, duplicate content, missing sitemaps, poor mobile-friendliness, insecure connections (HTTP vs HTTPS), broken internal linking, and improper redirects. Technical issues prevent search engines from crawling, indexing, or ranking pages effectively. Even great content won't rank if technical issues block search engines. Many sites have technical issues they're unaware of. A technical SEO audit identifies these issues. Fixing technical problems often provides quick ranking improvements, as they're foundational to SEO success.
