What this is
A pages inventory that scores your site and surfaces issues across:- Robots.txt health
- Performance
- Technical SEO
- Content
Why it matters
- AI engines rely on pages that are crawlable, structured, and answer questions directly.
- Many visibility problems are actually site structure or missing FAQ/schema problems.
- This is your “fix the foundation” hub.
Where to find it
Analytics → Website → PagesHow it works
-
Meridian scans your site pages and assigns:
- Technical score (crawl/SEO/metadata/schema signals)
- Content score (answerability, completeness, helpful structure)
- Issues count per page
- A top banner summarizes issues across the site (e.g., “47 issues across 100 pages”).
How to use it
- Review the top cards (Robots.txt, Performance, Technical SEO, Content).
- Use the issues banner to understand scope (issues across pages).
-
Sort/scan pages with:
- Low Technical score
- Low Content score
- High Issues count
- Click a page to open Page details and follow action steps.
How to interpret results
- If Robots.txt is not healthy → crawlers may be blocked → fix before content work.
- If Technical is low but Content is high → you’re “good but invisible” → fix schema/meta/crawl issues.
- If Content is low but Technical is high → you’re crawlable but not useful → add FAQs, structure, and direct answers.
- If one template type (e.g., all product pages) has many issues → fix the template once to lift many pages.
- If issues are concentrated on pages you want cited → prioritize those pages first; they’re most likely to move metrics.
Common questions / troubleshooting
- “Why do I see a refresh timer?” → Website scans run on a schedule; the UI shows next refresh time.
- “Why are scores >100?” → some scoring systems can exceed 100 when you strongly match best practices (treat as “excellent”).
- “Why is my page list incomplete?” → crawl coverage may be limited; ensure sitemap/internal links exist.
