Robots & Meta Analyzer: Overview

This tool fetches robots.txt, any sitemaps it references, and the target page's HTML <head> — then reports discoverability and SEO signals in one place.

What it reports

  • robots.txt — presence, User-agent groupings, Disallow rules, declared sitemaps.
  • sitemap.xml — validity, URL count (sampled), lastmod metadata.
  • <head> metatitle, description, canonical, <meta name="robots">, Open Graph and Twitter tags.

What it does not do

  • It does not crawl the full sitemap — only the first N URLs, to stay polite.
  • It does not render JavaScript — pages that set canonical tags from the client will show as missing.
  • It does not audit schema.org / JSON-LD structured data in depth.
