Some additional info...
1. Don't let the new HTML5 tags distract or confuse you. Google knows how to deal with traditional DIVs so only use the new tags (example: SECTION, ASIDE) if you know how to properly implement.
2. Maintainability is a big one for page speed optimizations. You can easily get 95% there but that remaining 5% often comes at the expense of maintenance, and the ability to see/make changes easily.
3. Can't agree more with the section on redirects. 301's are often forgotten and can cause issues down the road with SEO and site functions.
4. The last tip I would add would be to monitor 404/access logs. Often times they will reveal SEO problems.

You can easily get 95% there but that remaining 5% often comes at the expense of maintenance, and the ability to see/make changes easily. Agreed. You might be able to gain a percentage point by inlining some vital CSS rules, but without hellish attention to details, that way madness lies.
- butler14 12y agoAbsolutely - it's also a complete waste of time from and SEO perspective, and represents a poor cost vs. benefit if your goal is to reduce bounce rate / increase conversion rate.
- conphill 12y agoI would say it is safe to say that having a mobile optimized site is something that you might want to be added to your list since it is now included into their ranking algorithm and as mobile devices become more common than desktops, this will only become more important.
