Use this page to monitor index coverage and resolve blocked or failed URLs before visibility drops.

## Questions this page should answer

1. Are key pages being indexed correctly?
2. Which URLs are failing indexing and why?
3. Which indexing actions should happen first this week?

## Before you analyze

* Start with high-priority page groups (money pages and key content hubs).
* Review status counts before checking individual URLs.
* Separate `Errored` pages from pages that are simply not yet discovered.

## What this page gives you

* URL submission tools (`Check Status`, `Request Indexing`).
* Indexing status cards:
  * `All URLs`
  * `Indexed URLs`
  * `Discovered`
  * `Unknown to Google`
  * `Indexing requested`
  * `Errored`
* A URL-level status table with last-check information.

## How to read the status cards

* `All URLs`: tracked URLs in this project.
* `Indexed URLs`: pages currently known and indexed.
* `Discovered`: found but not yet fully indexed.
* `Unknown to Google`: not recognized in index checks.
* `Indexing requested`: URLs sent for indexing recently.
* `Errored`: URLs with indexing check failures.

How to interpret:

* High `Errored` count means direct indexing risk.
* Large gap between `All URLs` and `Indexed URLs` means coverage opportunity.
* Rising `Unknown to Google` often means discovery or sitemap issues.

## How to use the URL table

Use the table to create an execution queue:

* Sort and review failed URLs first.
* Group issues by path/template to find shared root causes.
* Check `Last checked` to avoid acting on stale assumptions.

Use bulk actions:

* `Load URLs from sitemap` to refresh candidate URLs.
* `Index all URLs` or targeted requests after fixes are live.

## Quick weekly checklist

1. Review status-card changes from last week.
2. Triage `Errored` URLs first.
3. Submit fixed priority URLs for re-indexing.
4. Validate status movement after recheck.
5. Escalate repeated failures to engineering.

## What to fix first

| Pattern in URL indexing              | What it usually means                      | Recommended action                                       |
| ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| High errored count                   | Technical/indexing blockers are unresolved | Fix root cause and re-request indexing for priority URLs |
| Large unknown-to-google segment      | Discovery pathway is weak                  | Validate sitemap, internal links, and crawl access       |
| Many discovered but not indexed URLs | Quality/signaling gap                      | Improve page quality and internal support links          |
| Important page stuck unindexed       | Direct business risk                       | Prioritize page-level fix and immediate re-index request |

## Team routine

1. Weekly: index-status review and top-priority URL triage.
2. Bi-weekly: investigate recurring failure patterns.
3. Monthly: report coverage growth and persistent indexing blockers.

## Keep in mind

* Indexing changes may take time after requests.
* Requesting indexing without fixing root cause rarely works.
* Priority should follow business impact, not URL count alone.
