Sitemap Discovery & Crawl-Link Review

No. It reports whether a sitemap-like URL appeared as a crawled record or reference, but it does not fetch and parse the sitemap inventory. It cannot verify XML syntax, sitemap indexes, URL counts, status, canonical alignment, lastmod values, noindex conflicts, or Search Console processing.

It means no other successfully fetched page in this crawl sample linked to the normalized URL. A true orphan-page conclusion requires a more complete crawl plus sitemap, analytics, server-log, feed, and platform inventories. The homepage and failed pages are excluded from this check.

No. URL path segments are not click depth, and the analyzer intentionally leaves deep-page results empty because the sample does not establish a complete traversal graph. Use a graph-aware complete crawl to measure clicks from chosen entry points.

It is the percentage of successfully fetched crawl records with a captured canonical field. It does not resolve or validate the URL, compare duplicate pages, inspect other canonical signals, or determine the canonical selected by a search engine.

The tool cannot tell because it does not parse sitemap URLs. It lists pages where a noindex token was captured from robots meta or X-Robots-Tag. Compare that list with the live sitemap and intended indexation separately.

Fetch the declared sitemap and any sitemap indexes, validate their XML and limits, confirm each submitted URL is canonical and intended for indexing, check responses and directives, reference the sitemap from robots.txt where useful, and review the submitted and indexed results in the relevant webmaster tools.
