    Technical SEO as the foundation for website success
    Technical SEO ensures optimal site structure and accessibility for search bots to crawl and index pages. This involves ensuring that commercial pages are open to index while non-commercial pages are closed to allocate resources effectively.

    Selective indexing for optimal SEO results
    Barring non-commercial and outdated pages from being indexed increases the crawl budget for more critical, commercial pages. Log analyzers and correlating tools can provide insights into search bot behavior, identify ignored pages, and guide optimizations.
