How to fix: Pages containing frames

Issue: <frame> tags make it hard for search engines to index the content within them, which can prevent your pages from appearing in search results. Frames also provide a poor user experience.

Fix: Replace <frame> tags with modern HTML and CSS layouts to ensure all content is accessible to search engines and users.

Recommendations

  1. Use Modern HTML/CSS: Replace frames with responsive layouts using HTML5 and CSS, which improve compatibility and SEO.
  2. Implement <iframe> Carefully: If embedding external content is necessary, use <iframe> but ensure essential content isn’t contained within it.
  3. Review Legacy Code: Older sites often contain frames; consider a redesign to modernize and enhance accessibility.
  4. Test SEO Visibility: After removing frames, test your pages in search engines to ensure content is now being indexed.

Tip: Frame-free pages are easier to crawl, improving both SEO and user experience.
