Our suggested order: biggest obstacles first, quickest first among equals. The effect of each fix is not measured. 3 take minutes.
Step 1 · Organic
Everything here was observed on the site. Fixing it removes a known obstacle; no one can promise a specific ranking in return.
Observed · AdnaveBot's reading of 3 pages on 2026-11-12 · each finding is what we saw on those pages; “what to do”, the score and the order are our judgment

}
</script>When pages share a title, search engines cannot tell which one to show, and searchers cannot tell them apart.
What to do: Rewrite each title so it describes that page specifically.
Pages under about 200 words rarely rank for anything.
What to do: Expand these pages with useful detail, merge them into a stronger page, or hide them from search.
“Alibaba.com: Manufacturers, Suppliers, Exporters & Importers from the world's largest online B2B marketplace”. Titles outside roughly 30 to 60 characters are either vague or get cut off in results.
What to do: Rewrite it to 30 to 60 characters, leading with the main thing people search for.

robots.txt tells these assistants to stay out, so they cannot read or cite your pages. That is a legitimate choice, but it removes you from their answers.
What to do: If you want to appear in AI answers, remove the Disallow rules for these crawlers in robots.txt.
Only if you want Gemini to be able to ground its answers in your pages. Google-Extended controls both that and Gemini training, so allowing it allows both. It does not affect Google Search either way.
User-agent: Google-Extended Allow: /
A single H1 tells search engines what each page is about.
What to do: Give each page exactly one H1 that states its topic.
Without a width and height, the page shifts as each image arrives. That is the layout shift Core Web Vitals penalise.
What to do: Add width and height attributes to every image tag.
How to fix this: Image SEO: alt text, file size and layout shiftA sitemap lists every page so search engines find them all, including new ones.
What to do: Generate a sitemap.xml and submit it in Google Search Console.
Save as sitemap.xml at the top level of the site, then submit https://www.alibaba.com/sitemap.xml in Google Search Console. It lists only the pages this audit read; add the rest.

A made-up address did not return a 404. Search engines can end up indexing endless empty pages.

How to fix this: How to find and fix broken links on your websiteOnly 0 H2 subheadings found.
What to do: Break the page into sections with H2 subheadings that use the words people search for.

Assistants quote pages that state a question and answer it plainly. This page has no question-style headings.
What to do: Add a short section of real customer questions as headings, each answered in two or three sentences.
How to fix this: AI search readiness: how to be found by AI assistantsAn optional plain-text summary of the site for AI assistants. It is cheap to add, but there is no evidence yet that it changes how often a site is cited.

Optional. Save as llms.txt at the top level of the site. Edit the first lines to describe what you do.

Step 2 · Ads
Ads only pay off when the site can measure what they bring in. We look for tracking tags in the page code; tags that load later, through a consent banner or tag manager, will not show up here.
Without analytics you cannot see where visitors come from or what they do.
What to do: Set up Google Analytics 4 and add its tag to every page.
How to fix this: What to set up before you spend on adsGoogle Ads cannot learn which clicks turn into customers without it.
What to do: Create a conversion action in Google Ads and add the tag, or import conversions from Analytics.
