Canonical & Robots Inspector

Paste HTML and optional X-Robots-Tag values to review page-level canonical and robots signals without claiming Google indexing certainty.

Inspect canonical and page-level robots signals together

Paste HTML plus optional X-Robots-Tag response-header values. This combines page-level signals only; robots.txt crawl rules and search-engine canonical selection are separate systems.

A canonical link is a hint, not a command. A noindex directive must be fetched to be seen; robots.txt crawl blocking can prevent page-level directives from being read.

Browser-local technical SEO workflow

v10.80 connects metadata, SERP drafting, robots, canonical, hreflang, sitemap and structured-data jobs without requiring an account or sending pasted source to a backend. Existing v5.9/v10.0 SEO generators remain intact while new inspectors make it easier to review a finished head or annotation set.

Search-engine boundaries

Local markup checks cannot know what a crawler fetched, rendered, indexed or selected as canonical. Search engines may rewrite title links/snippets, choose different canonicals, ignore invalid or ineligible structured data, and apply live HTTP/robots conditions that are not present in pasted text. Treat these tools as pre-publish QA, then verify live behavior with the relevant search-engine tools.

Practical tips and limits

Generated markup and metadata should describe content that is actually present on the page. Search engines decide eligibility and presentation independently.
