Technical SEO
Crawlability Review
A crawlability review checks whether search engines and AI crawlers can access, follow and understand the important parts of a website.
What it means
A Crawlability review looks at Robots.txt, status codes, internal links, blocked resources, JavaScript rendering, sitemap health, orphan pages and crawl traps. It is a practical Technical SEO step before deeper indexation or ranking work.
Why it matters
Crawlability review matters because pages that cannot be reached or rendered reliably cannot become strong search assets. It also helps reduce wasted Crawling on low-value URLs and protects important pages from accidental technical barriers.
Example
A review may find that important category pages are three Clicks too deep, while internal search URLs and filters receive too many links. The fix is not more content; it is better crawl governance.
Common mistakes
Common mistakes include checking only the XML sitemap, ignoring internal links, assuming Google sees JavaScript exactly like a browser user or blocking pages before confirming how they should be indexed.
