look for in technical SEO can get you
far…
31. …So many people today focus too
heavily on off-page SEO, but if a site is
technically flawed, it won't matter how
many links you have or how good your
content is.”

able to crawl your new updated content.”

59. “Including a rel=canonical link in your webpage is a
strong hint to search engines your about preferred
version to index among duplicate pages on the web.”
60. “rel=canonical can be a bit tricky
because it’s not very obvious when
there’s a misconfiguration.”
74. DeepCrawl already supports the robots.txt noindex directive: check which pages are
being noindexed in your report via Indexation > Non-Indexable Pages > Noindex
Pages.

Using a number of different channels to make a single purchase. An example of
this kind of transaction is researching a product online and then buying it in
store. In fact, more than 80% of all respondents conduct online research before
they buy electronics, computers, books, music, and movies. Eighty-eight percent
of US respondents said that they research a product online via their PC before
buying (vs. 80% globally) ― and 73% of US respondents report that they
research online when buying clothing, footwear, toys, and health and beauty
products (vs. 60% globally). In other words, online research doesn‘t just lead to
online purchases, it‘s also critical in leading to purchases through other
channels and in driving traffic to physical brick and mortar outlets.

the most complete 3-D map of the local universe (out to a distance of 380 million light-years) ever created. Taking more than 10 years to complete, the 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS) also is notable for extending closer to the Galactic plane than previous surveys – a region that’s generally obscured by dust.

Unlike disallowed pages, noindexed pages don’t end up in the index and therefore won’t show in search results. Combine both in robots.txt to optimise your crawl efficiency: the noindex will stop the page showing in search results, and the disallow will stop it being crawled:
Disallow: /example-page-1/Disallow: /example-page-2/
Noindex: /example-page-1/Noindex: /example-page-2/
This is the holy grail of robots control that SEOs have been looking for.
SIMPLE, STRAIGHTFORWARD & POWERFUL
