What to fix first after a crawl

Start with errors. A broken page, a blocked URL, a missing title, or a missing H1 changes whether the page can be understood. The issue list is ordered with errors before warnings, and each row shows how many pages are affected.

Open the row before you edit the site. The pages are listed there, so you fix the URL that failed instead of guessing from the count.

Warnings come next: thin text, a short title, a missing canonical. They do not lower the health score, and they are still the difference between a page that is merely valid and a page that is easy to understand.

Page speed is a separate job. Fix the homepage metrics Google marks red or orange, then run the audit again. The new crawl is saved on the account, so you can compare the score with the earlier one.
