Technical Health

88.72

Whether search engines can fetch, trust, and quickly load the site.

Strengths

  • CrawlabilityStrong

    Crawlers are welcome here: a sitemap points the way, links work, and pages are allowed into the index.

  • SpeedStrong

    Pages load quickly, and the server answers fast.

  • Secure connectionStrong

    Every visit is encrypted, and the headers that keep it that way are in place.

Opportunities

  • URL and canonical hygienePartial

    URLs are mostly in order; what remains is giving every page one settled address and making missing pages answer as missing.

Content Quality

68.71

Whether pages say clearly what they are about, in a form machines can read.

Strengths

  • Depth and readabilityStrong

    Pages say enough to be useful, in plain language, and stay on the topic their titles promise.

  • LanguageStrong

    The page language is declared and matches what is on the page.

Opportunities

  • Titles and descriptionsPartial

    Titles are mostly in place; descriptions and link previews are patchier, and each page wants ones of its own.

  • FreshnessMissing

    Nothing here is recently dated, or dated at all; a date on each article, and something new to date, would change that.

  • Images and linksPartial

    Pages link to one another, though some images lack a description and some link text says "read more" rather than where it leads.

Answer Readiness

58.13

Whether content is shaped and marked up so an engine can lift a direct answer.

Opportunities

  • Question-and-answer shapeWeak

    Few pages are shaped as questions and answers, so there is little for an answer engine to lift as a direct answer.

  • Navigation aidsMissing

    Pages give no sign of where they sit in the site; a breadcrumb trail on interior pages, in text and in markup, is the fix.

  • Structured dataPartial

    Structured data is partly there: not on every page, not always complete, and not always the types that earn rich results.

AI Visibility

84.66

Whether AI systems can reach, read, and confidently identify the site.

Strengths

  • AI accessStrong

    AI crawlers are allowed in, and pages may be quoted in AI answers.

  • IdentityStrong

    It is clear who is behind this site, on its pages, in its markup, and in the public record.

  • Readable without JavaScriptStrong

    The content is in the page itself, marked out from the navigation, and written in prose a machine can lift.

Opportunities

  • Authorship and sourcingWeak

    Articles rarely say who wrote them or when, and pages rarely link out to sources, which gives an AI little reason to trust them.

  • FeedsMissing

    There is no feed and the sitemap carries no dates, so nothing tells a machine when something new appears; a feed is a small addition.

Authority

87.25

Whether the wider web vouches for the site.

Strengths

  • BacklinksStrong

    Plenty of other sites link here, including ones that matter.

  • TrafficStrong

    The site has a large audience.

  • Domain historyStrong

    The domain has a long history, and history counts.

Opportunities

Nothing here to work on. The points left are the ones only the web's largest sites earn.

Scores reflect what IndexBot could read from box.com's available pages on .

IndexBot

IndexBot is the crawler behind SEO Leaderboard. It visits a website only when someone submits that domain, reads it the way a search engine would, and leaves.

What it does

  • Fetches the homepage, robots.txt, the sitemap, and up to 24 more pages, at most four at a time.
  • Reads raw HTML only. It runs no JavaScript and loads no images, fonts, or scripts.
  • Visits a domain at most once every 24 hours, however many people submit it.
  • Stores what it measured, never full copies of pages.

How it identifies itself

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; IndexBot/1.0; +https://seoleaderboard.com/bot)

How to let it in

Bot protection often turns IndexBot away before it reads anything, and the domain then cannot be scored. If you run the site, allow the User-Agent IndexBot. In Cloudflare that is a WAF skip rule; most other tools have the same idea under a different name.

(http.user_agent contains "IndexBot")

IndexBot has no fixed IP range to allow instead, so the User-Agent is the only thing to match on. It never tries to disguise itself as a browser, and the limits above are the whole of what it asks for.

How to keep it out

IndexBot obeys robots.txt. Add this and it will not read your site, and your domain cannot be scored.

User-agent: IndexBot
Disallow: /
