Are you looking for a detailed technical explanation of how the coding of a website affects search engine ranking?

or are you trying to start a bot generated SEO thread and then stealthily drop in a backlink thats customized to not look like a link which is a blackhat linking technique in order to try and illicit unsuspecting visitors to visit a spam SEO site that promises top ranking on Google but cant deliver then disappears with the money?

when it comes to improving website design from an SEO perspective, focus on your site being mobile-friendly. and optimize loading speed. then structure your content with clear headings and internal links. A clean, user-friendly design enhances both user experience and SEO performance. Have you already identified specific design elements you're looking to improve, or are you seeking general guidance?

Obviously, website design effect in SEO. User interreact with the best designed websites. If the design of the website is not good the user leave the website too early which increase the bounce rate that impact on google ranking.

Yes, if you consult with an SEO expert before starting design, you can make a good strategy for your growth.

 

[Graybeard]

Yes, when SEO ruins the users expectation and you fail to deliver on what the "SEO" promises to deliver.

UX first, then playing games with your SERPs.

Website design affects SEO more than you might think. I once worked on a site with great content but poor design—it was slow, not mobile-friendly, and had confusing navigation. After redesigning it to improve speed, simplify the layout, and make it mobile-responsive, rankings improved significantly. Focus on user experience; if visitors love it, search engines will too.
