π What are the Information Retrieval Zones?
Information Retrieval Zones are the sources in a web document from where a search engine crawler picks data about that page.
π Examples of Information Retrieval Zones:
- π URL of a document: The web address that search engines analyze for relevance.
- π·οΈ HTML Tags: Includes Title, Contextual Vectors, and Subordinate Content.
- πΌοΈ Featured Image: The main visual representation of a document.
- π Meta Description: Not a ranking factor but still an important Information Retrieval Zone.
- π Structured Data Markup: Formats like JSON-LD, Microdata, and RDFa help organize content for search engines.
All these zones must be fully optimized for search engine crawlers as they serve a special purpose in content indexing.
