However you will be presenting them back to back. - Make sure your presentation has a minimal layout - Feel free to order your slides / structure your presentation in a way that it is easy for you to explain it. Ensure all points mentioned in the above assignment are covered. - Support all screenshots with relevant insights Eg. If you're adding a screenshot of Gtmetrix scores then add the reason behind why your website is slow, how it compares to competitors and how do you recommend to make it faster. Screenshots without explanations may attract negative marks. - Make sure you attach screenshots / mockups / examples for technical topics such as meta tags, review schema, sitemap, backlinks etc. - While creating your presentation, keep your ideas and information very simple to understand and consume for the client. The presentation must carry enough data / references to help the client be convinced by your ideas. - Wherever possible, explain all your ideas not only from an SEO perspective but also from a User Experience perspective. - Do not forget to mention the link to your website on the last slide of the presentation - Do use a legible font and font size - Do keep your presentations brief in nature and slides clean to look at - Do not overshoot the time provided for presenting - Do try to maintain a brand mood (i.e. colour scheme of a brand) for the entire presentation GoodLuck :)
