Wow, thanks everyone! This makes way more sense now.

I checked Google Search Console like a few of you suggested, and yeah, my site’s got some crawl errors. Gonna fix those broken links ASAP.

Quick follow-up: Does crawling définition also affect how fast my site gets indexed? Or is that a different thing?

(Also, appreciate the tool recs—Screaming Frog looks wild but helpful lol.)

Crawling définition is basically bots mapping out your site for search engines.

The better they can crawl, the better you’ll rank.

Avoid blocking JS/CSS files—crawlers need those to "see" your site properly. Tools like PageSpeed Insights can help spot issues.
