Crawlability

Crawlability

Crawlability refers to how easily search engine bots can access and read the pages of a website. A crawlable site has a clear structure, working internal links, no blocking directives on important pages, and a sitemap that guides bots through the content. Poor crawlability means pages that exist on a site may never be indexed or ranked.
