Priority fixes for searates.com
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Enable
robots.txt published
Observed: No robots.txt file was returned at the site root.
Why it matters: robots.txt is where crawlers look first for crawl rules and sitemap locations. Without it, they assume everything is open.
What to do: Publish /robots.txt with any crawl rules you need and a Sitemap: line pointing to your XML sitemap.
80% of Business Tools peers do this. Limit: Only the standard location was requested, once, at the time of the check.

Priority 2 · Enable
XML sitemap discoverable
Observed: No sitemap was listed in robots.txt or found at /sitemap.xml.
What to do: Generate an XML sitemap of canonical URLs, reference it in robots.txt and submit it in Google Search Console.
61% of Business Tools peers do this.

Priority 3 · Accelerate
Modern image formats in use
Observed: The homepage had 71 images and none used WebP or AVIF.
What to do: Serve WebP or AVIF with a JPEG or PNG fallback, either through an image CDN or by generating both formats at build time.
On Cloudflare: Cloudflare Polish can convert images to WebP.
42% of Business Tools peers do this.
