The crawl gives us a quick overview of the health of your website, including the following:

- Pages that are being redirected
- Pages that are blocking search engines from crawling the page.
The above is further broken down by severity – errors, warnings, and notices.
Analytics Tracking:
We check that your Google Analytics and BING Webmaster tracking codes are set up for your site.
STEP TWO – Crawling and Indexing
This step checks whether your pages and posts are indexed with Google and Bing.
We check your robots.txt file to ensure it’s not blocking access to your website.
Sitemap – We check to see if you have an XML sitemap (you should) and then check it to make sure all pages and posts are included in your sitemap.
We also check whether your sitemap has been submitted to Google and Bing.
Site Navigation – We review your existing site structure and internal linking setup to determine if the site is structured properly with its pages, posts, categories, internal linking, and external linking to other external sites.
Permalink Structure – We review your permalink structure
Ex. Friendly permalink structure – www.yourwebsite.com/about-us/ vs.
