Hello, we apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. Rank Math offers a similar feature to Yoast’s crawl optimization tool. You can find this feature in the “Advanced SEO Analysis Tool” and “SEO Analysis Score” sections. These tools help you optimize your website’s crawlability and identify any issues that may affect your site’s performance in search engine results.
You can access these features by navigating to the Rank Math plugin in your WordPress dashboard and clicking on the “SEO Analysis” tab. From there, you can run detailed SEO tests and analyze your website’s performance to ensure optimal crawlability.
If you have any further questions or need assistance with these features, please feel free to ask.

Hello. Thanks for pointing this out to me.
The SEO Analysis tool appears to be more of an auditing tool though. Is there another feature from RankMath that actively optimizes the site for crawlers in a similar fashion to Yoast? Something that is enabled and runs in the background perhaps?
Cheers.
Hello,
Thank you for your patience.
We had discussed this before internally and decided not to add these settings in the plugin because it is not going to benefit the site. These settings can be easily managed using robots.txt and filters
However, Rank Math already has crawl settings where you can edit your robots.txt file or make something noindex with a few clicks.
This will ensure bots only visit the content that you want them to visit. Here is how to edit your robots.txt file and add rules to prevent Google and other bots from crawling specific URLs: https://rankmath.com/kb/how-to-edit-robots-txt-with-rank-math/
Looking forward to helping you.
