AnaZahra is a leading original Arabic Content Women Online Magazine. The portal uses word press as their content management system (CMS), and they are successfully using the All in One SEO Pack plugin for word press. The theme of the site is impressive and full of colors and visuals; however, there's still a space to improve the search engine visibility and traffic. Here's a quick SEO audit for the site: 1- Titles: a) Title of Homepage (only in English). b) Title of some internal pages is the title of the site rather than the title of the section AnaZahra Main Page Title AnaZahra Categoty Title - Duplicate of Main Page 2- Description: The descriptive text used in the description tag is not descriptive (<meta name="description" content="anazahra" /> ), which results in no SERP snippet when someone searches for the site.

Images' Alt attribute: None of the images has alt image attribute. Anchor text/Title tag for links
