Indexability
Whether a page exposes technical signals that permit or encourage indexing.
Free technical SEO check
Check metadata and indexability
Review existing public page metadata and robots directives.
This bounded public check shows supported evidence only. Review the result before making a site change.
What is an indexability checker?
An indexability checker reviews page-level technical signals such as response status, canonical URLs, metadata, and robots directives where available. It cannot confirm Google indexing or ranking.
What we check
Each supported result maps to observed evidence, a status, why it matters, and next-step guidance. Unavailable evidence remains not checked rather than being inferred.

Indexing
Whether a search engine has actually chosen to store and serve the page.
Indexability vs indexing
Indexability is whether page-level technical signals permit or encourage indexing. Indexing is whether a search engine has actually chosen to store and serve a page. A page can be technically indexable without being indexed.
Check, fix, recheck
- 1. Check the current public state.
- 2. Understand the observed evidence and update the responsible CMS, host, CDN, DNS, or template setting.
- 3. Recheck the same public URL to verify that the observed signal changed.
Fix → recheck
1. Check
Run the current public URL.
2. Fix
Use the observed evidence to update the responsible setting.
3. Recheck
Confirm the public signal after caches or deployments settle.
Why continuous monitoring can matter
Indexability regressions can happen after routine changes.
Template edits, SEO-plugin changes, launches, migrations, and CMS deployments can change page-level technical signals. A one-off checker is useful for diagnosis; monitoring helps keep priority client pages healthy.

For agencies
One-off diagnosis. Repeatable client-site oversight.
Use the free checker to diagnose a priority URL. When canonical, robots, or metadata signals matter across client sites, a supported Pulse monitoring workflow makes repeat checks more useful.
noindex and robots.txt are different
A page-level noindex directive can discourage indexing, while robots.txt communicates crawler-access rules; neither label alone is a confirmed Google indexing verdict.
Canonical URLs explained
A canonical URL is a preferred-URL signal. It can help explain which version of a page a search engine may treat as primary.
