        "text": "Crawlability refers to a search engine bot's ability to access and read the content on your website. If a page is crawlable, the bot can visit it. Indexability, however, is whether that accessed content can then be stored in the search engine's index to be considered for ranking. A page can be crawlable but not indexable (e.g., if it has a 'noindex' tag). For a page to appear in search results, it must be both crawlable *and* indexable, working hand-in-hand to ensure content visibility.",
