Is it best to have Squarespace host domains to reduce DNS lookups in order to avoid a slow site load speed? Or would you suggest using CloudFlare? This is assuming other site speed factors are already optimized (images, minified css, js, html, ssl, etc). 

Is SEO dead with the continued move to mobile and establishment of Amazon as a primary  search engine and Facebook etc. as primary platforms on the web ? What types of searches; informational, comparison, transactional, and so on, should we be optimizing our site for - what part of the searchers journey should we target to optimize our investment in SEO ? Can you share your definition of SEO and your model for its Return on Investment and compare this to an investment in paid search? Perhaps, you can touch on site design for SEO and Paid Search - how should we consider landing pages? Do you conduct a Site SEO Audit for clients, how do you approach new clients, what information do you look at in Squarespace and what tools do you recommend?
- Sorry, several questions there. Thank you! - John

Hey Matt. Do you have any Squarespace-specific suggestions for optimizing local SEO for a business with multiple physical locations? Cheers.

Hi Matt
I use SEMRUSH (https://www.semrush.com/) to co-ordinate SEO activity for a number of Squarespace sites I maintain.
When I run the SEMRUSH site audit tool, I notice the same warning coming up regarding Squarespace using uncompressed JavaScript and CSS files.
Do you think this is a "real" issue and if so.....is it something I can fix?
Thanks 
Damian
 
 
 

What's your best advice for keyword research without investing in one of the expensive tools?

What is the number one thing that all squarespace site creators should do regarding SEO? Understand that there will be multiple actions to get better rankings, but if you had to name just one, what would it be?
Thanks

Hi JGutierrez, Matt,
I want to know how to add Schema Markups in SquareSpace to get featured on the SERP sections?
