Discovery
Connect sitemap checks, Google Search Console tools, and crawl signals.
Run sitemap, public URL, Search Console, crawl, and indexing checks from one workspace before discovery problems become a large cleanup project.

The system brings basic discovery checks closer to publishing, while retaining the external search signals needed for investigation.
What it covers
The capability in practical terms.
These are the implemented workflows this feature area brings into the website administration system.
Sitemap audit
Confirm the sitemap is available and compare the expected public URL set with what is being exposed.
Published URL status
Review whether an important page resolves as expected and is configured for public indexing.
Search Console workspace
Keep Google Search Console observations close to the pages and topics they affect.
Visit and Googlebot clues
Use access records to investigate whether pages receive visits and bot-related requests.
Compare
Review published pages, sitemap entries, and the pages the team considers important.
Investigate
Use URL state, Search Console, and visit signals to narrow down obvious discovery gaps.
Correct
Fix publication, canonical, index, internal-link, sitemap, or redirect issues in the responsible workflow.
What this feature does not promise.
Crawl and Search Console signals can reveal conditions to investigate; they do not promise that Google will index or rank every eligible page.
Questions about Sitemap checker and GSC tools
Understand the workflow before choosing the feature.
Compare all platform featuresWhat does a sitemap checker verify?
It verifies that the sitemap is available and helps compare the expected public URL set with the URLs the website is exposing.
What indexing checks can the workflow perform?
It can review public response state, canonical and index settings, sitemap inclusion, internal linking, redirects, and available Search Console or crawl observations.
Does submitting a sitemap guarantee indexing?
No. A sitemap helps discovery, but search engines still decide whether and when an eligible page is crawled, indexed, and shown.
How are Googlebot visits used?
Visit records can provide clues that a URL was requested, but user-agent data must be interpreted carefully and does not by itself prove indexing or ranking.
