Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks alot for the response Stephen, much appreciated. I read the entire article you suggested and found all the answers I needed in the comments section. Ashamed I didn't find the article myself before posting the question! Tired eyes I agree with you, smartphones are our only real concern going forward.

Hi, The reason that the Crawl Diagnostics report is divided into three different sections is because the impact of the things highlighted within is completely different. Warnings are there because it is a known fact that "Pages with crawl warnings are often penalized by search engines." It is up to you whether you take notice of them, and obviously if you have specific conditions on those pages, such as the presence of a noindex meta tag, then obviously you may choose not to bother adding them. That doesn't actually make the function spammy. It just means that the warning isn't relevant for your particular situation. Requiring the App to check pages with the noindex meta against pages that have missing meta descriptions and remove them from the reporting would add a whole other layer of complexity to the tool. In short, the tool is meant to identify pages with missing meta descriptions. It does that very well. If you don't need to use the information then you are free to ignore it. Sha
