Parameters
What This Means
URLs that include parameters such as ‘?’ or ‘&’. This isn’t an issue for Google or other search engines to crawl unless at significant scale, but it’s recommended to limit the number of parameters in a URL which can be complicated for users, and can be a sign of low value-add URLs.
What Triggers This Issue
This issue is triggered when a URL includes parameters such as ‘?’ or ‘&’. For example: https://www.getasky.com/product?color=blue&size=medium
How To Fix
Where possible use a static URL structure without parameters for key indexable URLs. However, changing URLs is a big decision, and often it’s not worth changing them for SEO purposes alone. If URLs are changed, then appropriate 301 redirects must be implemented.
