Joomla SEO template is very important with a administrator. A beautiful template is not enough if it doesn’t help you have a high rank in Google. So when we made the Joomla template, we tried to optimize it for SEO as much as possible. Let’s see how JSN Epic template optimized.

Decrease the loading time:

JSN Epic template, all the multiple icons and single images are merged in one single image file, so you can reduce the number of HTTP requests to the server. And more than that, you can make all of the files compressed to be one file when you enable CSS/JS in SEO parameters template. So the loading time is faster and the search engines will care much more.

Insert Analytics code easily

Google Analytic is so popular that every website should include it. So of course a Joomla template must have it to control SEO better. In the SEO parameters template, we have one tab to put the analytics code and to choose the code position. With only with two small steps, the JSN Epic now has the correct code for all pages.

With other default Joomla templates you can’t control the website title as you want. Or maybe many Joomla newbies don't know how to fix and change the website title. JSN Epic helps you to change it easily. As you know the title with the important keyword is one of the first class that Google index your web. In "Template manager" of your control panel, you can see the SEO parameters ; just click yes to enable website title

Contain H1 tags

Joomla templates default doesn’t allow us to put headings in H1. But all site structures should contain H1 tags. The H1 will be visible to search engine. With JSN Epic, H1 tag will be shown with website name and logo slogan on top of the logo when you enable Top H1 tag in the SEO parameters. We recommend you to use an h1 tag with about 2 or 3 keywords that you want to be ranked.

Main content is searched first

The entire main column, the header and the footer in JSN Epic is very clearly marked. If you check the code, you can see how we generate all part. We put the main content at first so search engine can look for them when indexing your website. It’s a great point of Joomla SEO.

Logo link and logo image alt text

Google rates the upper part of a webpage as the most important since this areais the most frequently viewed part of each page. Because of this, the logo, menu bar and main images all appear in this part of the page, and we give alt-attributes and link information for all of these items. You can edit the slogan text to be attached to the logo image ALT text. And you can fix the link to your home page. As you know, logo link and image alt text is really helpful for SEO. When you put the link to domain.com/index.php, it becomes another page with Google, the most important search engine.
