Rankly reads your whole site the way Google does, finds what stands in the way and tells you the fix, most important first. What Rankly finds ## What stands in the way Rankly reads every page of your site, and what Google and Bing say about each one. 1. ### Pages Google can’t find Pages no search engine has read, often because no page of yours links to them. What you get: links from pages Google already reads. 2. ### Pages Google read and left out Read, then not shown. Some need more on them, some are too like another page, and some are better kept out of search. What you get: what to do with each page: improve it, merge it or keep it out. 3. ### Broken links and redirects Links that lead to a page that’s gone, or through one redirect after another. What you get: the link to change, or the redirect to add. 4. ### Slow pages Kinds of page that open slowly or jump about on a phone, measured the way Google measures them. What you get: which kind of page, and what slows it down. 5. ### Dates that don’t add up Pages that say “updated” when nothing changed, or still show last year’s date. What you get: the honest date to show. 6. ### Pages too alike Two pages so close that Google can’t tell which one to show for a search. What you get: which one to keep, and where to send the other. 7. ### What AI bots can’t see Many AI bots don’t run the scripts on a page. Rankly reads your key pages the way they do and flags what goes missing. 8. ### Sudden falls When visits from Google or Bing drop across your site, Rankly looks back through the whole history and names the likely cause. What you get ## Six new pages, and the one line that gets them found Here is one technical improvement as Rankly hands it over, on an example accounting firm. ### Link to 6 pages Google hasn’t found yet #### What Rankly found Six pages went up on your site more than four weeks ago. **Google hasn’t read any of them.** No page that Google reads links to them, so it has no way in. - /payroll-for-small-teams - /bookkeeping-for-builders - /bookkeeping-for-cleaning-firms - \+ 3 more #### Rankly’s improvement: one line with three links Add under “What we do” on your small business page We also run payroll for small teams, and keep the books for builders and cleaning firms. Google reads your small business page every few days. A link from it is the quickest way in for the new pages. #### Where it goes yourbusiness.com/small-business #### Status Needs your OK #### What Rankly checks after - The links are live on your page - Google reads each of the six pages - They start to show in Google How it’s counted ## Found first, then shown, then clicked A technical fix shows first in what Google does with your pages, and only later in visits. Rankly reads both. Read by Google The day Google reads each page, from Google’s own records for your site. In Google Whether Google keeps the page and starts to show it, and how often. Clicks Visits from Google and Bing at four weeks, three months and a year, against similar pages you left alone. ## The rest of Rankly - [**Content** What to write next, with a full brief](https://rankly.cc/features/content/) - [**AI answers** Named in ChatGPT, or someone else is](https://rankly.cc/features/ai-answers/) - [**Links and mentions** Links you lost, mentions without one](https://rankly.cc/features/links/) - [**Results** Every change counted, three times](https://rankly.cc/features/results/)
