Be aware of potential search engine roadblocks in website technology. Roadblocks are anything on your website that has the potential to interfere with a search engine's ability to index your website. While these roadblocks may not all be “deal breakers” for search engine rankings, they should be carefully reviewed in the strategic planning process of a website project.

As search engines update the way they rank and index websites (search engine algorithms), some of these search engine roadblocks may be overcome in the future, while new technologies may end up becoming more problematic.
