Duplicate or similar URL situations and signals that communicate preferred versions of pages.

XML Sitemaps

Sitemap structure, URL quality and whether important indexable pages are represented appropriately.

Robots Directives

Review robots.txt and related directives for unintended crawling restrictions.

07
Indexation

Identify pages that are indexed, excluded or potentially competing unnecessarily with one another.

08
Site Architecture

Review hierarchy, depth, navigation and internal linking relationships.

09
Page Performance

Identify opportunities around loading speed, asset delivery, responsiveness and mobile experience.
