Site health and fixes
Site health shows whether the site is up, whether AI can read and quote it, and what to fix, grouped by what each problem costs you.
Before you start
Site health fills in after the site’s first crawl. Anyone on the agency team can start a crawl, ignore an issue or change the folders aeoo skips. Client approvers see the page read-only in the portal.
The numbers at the top
Open the site, then Progress → Site health. Four cards lead the page:
- Uptime
- How much of the last 30 days the site was up, checked every five minutes. After two failed checks in a row, aeoo emails the team.
- Response
- Typical response time over 30 days. Under 200 ms feels instant.
- AI crawlers
- How many of the crawlers behind AI answers may read the site.
- Easy for AI to quote
- How many pages pass at least five of the six checks below.
If an AI crawler is blocked, Let AI crawlers in has the fix.

What to fix, by what it costs you
Open · 30AI can’t read it well
Thin or unstructured pages rarely get quoted
No main heading
The heading tells readers and AI what the page is about
Missing descriptions
Search engines and assistants write their own, often poorly
People won’t click it
Titles that are too short or the same on several pages
What to fix, by what it costs you
An audit runs after every crawl. Each finding lists the pages it affects and a severity: High, Medium or Low.
- Broken for visitors
- Pages that return errors, links to broken pages, and pages hidden from search but listed in the sitemap.
- AI can’t read it well
- Blocked AI crawlers, pages that say two different things, thin pages under 200 words, no main heading, no structured data, and pages nothing links to.
- People won’t click it
- Titles and descriptions that are missing, repeated, or cut off (titles over 60 characters, descriptions over 160).
- Small stuff
- Short titles and descriptions, and more than one main heading.
Ignore takes an issue off the Open list; Reopen brings it back. An issue moves to Fixed when a crawl no longer finds it. With the Site fixes automation on, aeoo drafts the fixes after every crawl.
Pages, by how easy AI finds them to quote
Every crawled page is checked for six things assistants look for in a page they quote:
- AI bots can reach it
- Facts in text, not images
- Says what it is in structured data
- The answer in the first 100 words
- Headings that match real questions
- A date that shows it’s current
Five or six is Easy, four is Fair, fewer is Hard. Hardest pages come first, each with the one thing in the way.
What AI crawlers see
AI crawlers don’t run scripts. From the latest site record, aeoo lists pages that show most of their text only after scripts run, so AI misses it.
Crawls and folders we skip
aeoo crawls the site when it’s added, and again when someone chooses Crawl now at the bottom of Site health. A crawl starts from the sitemap, follows links up to the page limit in Settings → Website, and skips pages robots.txt blocks.
To keep press archives or investor pages out of crawls and suggestions, add them under Settings → Website → Folders we skip, one per line, like /investor-relations/.
