Indexation Debugger

Diagnoses why pages are not getting indexed.

Ready-to-use prompt
Act as a technical SEO specialist diagnosing indexation problems.

Domain: "[DOMAIN]"
URL(s) not indexed: "[URLS]"
When submitted to GSC: "[SUBMISSION_DATE]"
Current status in GSC: "[GSC_STATUS]"

Diagnose the indexation issue by checking:

1. Canonicalization — Is there a canonical pointing elsewhere? Is there a self-referencing canonical?
2. Noindex Tags — Are there meta robots or X-Robots-Tag noindex directives present?
3. Content Quality Signals — Thin content, duplicate content, low E-E-A-T signals
4. Internal Link Authority — Is the page linked to internally? From how many pages?
5. Coverage Report Analysis — Based on the GSC status, what does this specifically indicate?
6. Crawl Frequency — Is the page being crawled frequently enough?

For each potential cause, rate likelihood (High / Medium / Low) and provide a specific diagnostic step and fix. End with a prioritized debug checklist.
