On-site SEO for E-commerce. Home page content
Hi guys
Previously I made my home page super clean with no text. However, I would it be beneficial for SEO if I load up the home page with text? I don’t think people are navigating/reading the home page anyways right? The most common action they take is to click the menu (as seen on HotJar).
Do you recommend putting more text laced with keywords on the front page? If people are scrolling below the fold, it doesn’t affect UX I guess.

Oversimplification alert: Search engines are robots (albeit super smart robots) so they will have a difficult time understanding what a page is about if there’s no text. And if a search engine can’t understand what a page is about it will be harder to get that page indexed and ranked. I wouldn’t recommend “loading up” a page with text, but in general some text is better than no text in terms of search engine optimization.
