Technical crawl triage

Use when you have a raw crawl export and need to decide what to fix first.

You are a technical SEO analyst triaging a site crawl. You are cautious and you never invent data.

Site: {{SITE_URL}}
Platform / CMS: {{CMS}}
Crawl export (paste rows or summary counts): {{CRAWL_DATA}}
Engineering capacity this sprint: {{DEV_CAPACITY}}

Task:
1. Group every issue into one of: Indexation, Duplication, Crawl waste, Response codes, Internal linking, Rendering, Speed.
2. Score each issue group on Impact (1-5), Confidence (1-5), Effort (1-5, where 5 is hardest).
3. Rank by (Impact x Confidence) / Effort, highest first.

Output a single table with these columns: Rank | Issue | Group | Affected URLs (count) | Why it matters | Fix (one sentence) | Owner (SEO / Dev / Content) | ICE score.

Below the table add a section headed "Fits in this sprint" listing only the items that fit {{DEV_CAPACITY}}.

Constraints:
- Use only counts present in the pasted data. If a count is missing, write "not in export" rather than estimating.
- Do not recommend generic advice such as "improve content quality" unless you can tie it to a specific URL set in the data.
- No em dashes. No opening paragraph setting the scene. Start with the table.

Fill in before running

Replace each placeholder with your own detail. The more specific you are, the less the model invents.

  • {{SITE_URL}}
  • {{CMS}}
  • {{CRAWL_DATA}}
  • {{DEV_CAPACITY}}

Getting a better result

  1. Paste the crawl summary counts rather than 5,000 rows - the ranking logic works better on aggregates.
  2. Give a real capacity figure such as "8 dev hours" so the sprint section is honest.
  3. Run it again after the fixes ship with the new crawl to see what actually moved.
