SEO Robots Inspector

The SEO Robots Inspector is a powerful Chrome extension designed to help SEO professionals and webmasters ensure their webpages are properly configured for search engine crawling, indexing, and following. This tool evaluates crucial SEO factors and provides detailed insights to optimize your site's performance on search engines.

Key Features:

• Meta Robots Tag Analysis: Checks if the page has a meta robots tag and determines its directives (index, noindex, follow, nofollow).
• Canonical URL Detection: Identifies the canonical URL and verifies if it matches the current page URL to prevent duplicate content issues.
• Local Robots.txt Parsing: Fetches and analyzes the robots.txt file locally, ensuring that important URLs are not blocked from being crawled without relying on external APIs.
• Visual Indicators: Provides clear visual feedback using color-coded indicators for indexability, followability, crawlability, and canonical status directly in the browser's extension icon.
• Blocked URLs Highlighter: Highlights URLs blocked by the robots.txt file directly on the webpage for easy identification.
• HTTP Headers Inspection: Fetches and displays the X-Robots-Tag header to check for additional indexing and following rules set at the server level.
• On-Demand Analysis: Perform on-demand analysis of any active tab to get up-to-date information on the page's SEO status.

How It Works:

• Active Tab Analysis: Automatically analyzes the active tab when the page loads, when the user activates the extension, or when tab/window focus changes.
