Technical Health

86.06

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

Strengths

  • 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.

  • Safe to visitStrong

    Nothing marks this site as unsafe to visit.

Opportunities

  • CrawlabilityPartial

    Crawlers can get in, but not everything helps them along: a complete sitemap, working links and pages that are allowed into the index are what to check.

  • 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

68.83

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

Strengths

  • Images and linksStrong

    Images are described in text, and pages link to each other with links that say where they go.

  • HeadingsStrong

    Each page has one main heading, with subheadings in a sensible order beneath it.

  • LanguageStrong

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

Opportunities

  • Depth and readabilityPartial

    Pages have substance, but many stop short, drift from their titles, or read harder than they need to.

  • Titles and descriptionsPartial

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

Answer Readiness

36.24

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

Strengths

  • Question-and-answer shapeStrong

    Pages pose the questions people ask and answer them in a paragraph right under the heading.

Opportunities

  • Structured dataMissing

    Pages carry no structured data, so nothing tells an engine what each one is; marking up the page type, and the site's name, is the first step here.

  • 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.

  • Scannable formattingPartial

    Pages are partly scannable; opening with a short summary, and putting facts in lists and tables, makes them easier to lift from.

AI Visibility

64.64

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.

Opportunities

  • IdentityWeak

    Little here says who is behind the site, in the markup or on the pages themselves.

  • Readable without JavaScriptPartial

    Most content is readable without running scripts, but some pages arrive thin, or the content is not clearly marked out from the furniture around it.

  • 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

80.29

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 djangoproject.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: /
