FAQ

01

Can this validator find crawl-blocking issues?

Yes. It flags risky robots rules like broad disallow patterns that can stop key pages from being indexed.

02

Does it only check robots.txt or also sitemap quality?

It checks both. You get robots coverage plus sitemap discovery, URL quality checks, host consistency, and fetch reliability.

03

Can I run this on any public domain?

Yes, as long as robots.txt and sitemap files are publicly reachable over HTTPS.

04

What if my sitemap is declared in robots.txt and also hosted elsewhere?

The validator attempts discovery from declared sitemap lines and standard sitemap paths, then reports what it can fetch.

05

Does this tool use AI models?

No. All checks are deterministic so outputs are stable and transparent for technical QA workflows.

06

Can this replace a full technical SEO crawl?

It is a focused crawler-access and sitemap validator. Pair it with broader crawls for performance, duplication, and template-level audits.

07

How often should I run this validation?

Run after infrastructure changes, CMS migrations, URL structure updates, and at least monthly for ongoing technical health.
