Final link QA before an article goes live

A useful article can still send a reader to the wrong destination. Before signing off on a publisher placement, open the draft link and check where it actually lands. Old redirects, a mistyped path or an outdated campaign page can change the reader's experience without being obvious in the copy.

Two practical checks:

  1. Confirm the visible brand link is a standard clickable link to the agreed destination. Google says it generally discovers links through ordinary HTML links to resolvable web addresses.
  2. Open the link from the public article, follow any redirect and compare the final page with the approved brief. Note the article URL and destination in the delivery report.

One article, two URLs? Check the canonical

Imagine a publisher shares the agreed article at a clean URL, while a tracking link opens the same text with parameters. Which address is the preferred version? The page's rel="canonical" element is a useful place to check. Google treats it as a strong signal for duplicate or very similar pages, but chooses the canonical itself.

Before closing the delivery report, compare the live URL with the page's canonical target. If it points to an unrelated article or another domain, ask the publisher to explain the setup. Keep a record of the final public URL and the link destination. The aim is to document what was actually published; a canonical tag alone cannot promise indexing.

Do the images in a publisher article have a job?

Imagine an article explaining how roulette bets work. A wheel photograph can support the explanation, but “casino betting roulette online casino” is not useful alt text. A short description of what the image actually depicts is better for readers who cannot see it. Google also uses alt text alongside page content to understand an image and advises against keyword stuffing.

Two checks for the final draft:

  1. Put the image near the paragraph it illustrates; Google uses nearby text as context.
  2. Ask for a short, descriptive filename and contextual alt text when the publisher controls them. Review the live page, since the CMS may change either field.

Can a publisher article choose its Google snippet?

Not exactly. Google primarily builds snippets from page content and may use the meta description when it describes the page better. The text can vary by search query, so a description is a useful summary, not a promise that the same wording will appear every time.

Try this after publication: compare the page’s opening and meta description. Both should tell the reader what the article actually covers: for example, a poker odds explainer should name the concept it explains, rather than repeat “casino, poker, betting” in a keyword list. If the publisher controls the description, request a page-specific summary and verify it on the live URL.
