Noindex and indexability checker
Paste up to 20 URLs to see whether search engines are allowed to index them. The checker reads the status code, redirects, meta robots, X-Robots-Tag header, canonical and robots.txt, then flags conflicting signals.
One per line, up to 20. Pages, PDFs and other files all work.
How it works
Three steps, no signup.
Paste your URLs
Add one URL per line, up to 20, and choose Googlebot or Bingbot.
Get a verdict
Each URL is marked indexable or not indexable, with every signal that led to the verdict.
Resolve conflicts
Fix pages that send mixed signals, such as a noindex the crawler can't see because robots.txt blocks it.
FAQ
Noindex & Indexability Checker questions.
What makes a page not indexable?
A noindex in the meta robots tag or the X-Robots-Tag header, a non-200 status code, a redirect, or a canonical pointing to a different URL. A robots.txt block stops crawling, which usually keeps the page out too.
Why is robots.txt plus noindex a conflict?
If robots.txt blocks a page, the crawler never fetches it and never sees the noindex. The URL can still be indexed from links. Allow crawling so the noindex can be read.
Does indexable mean the page is in Google?
No. Indexable means nothing on the page blocks indexing. Google still decides whether to index it. Use the URL Inspection tool in Search Console to see the actual index status.
Does it check X-Robots-Tag headers?
Yes. The header is easy to miss because it is not in the HTML. PDFs and other files can only be noindexed this way.
