IndexLane Crawl Fetch Inspector

A small free WordPress diagnostic plugin for checking crawler-facing HTTP status, redirects, canonicals, robots directives, schema blocks, and basic HTML SEO signals.

It helps WordPress site owners and implementers check how important URLs respond at the crawler-facing HTML layer from inside wp-admin.

Output

Results table for crawler-facing response evidence with CSV export.

Scope

Runs manually and stays read-only.

Useful for

Pages that look fine in a browser but return bad crawler-facing responses
Redirect and canonical checks
Robots meta and X-Robots-Tag checks
JSON-LD block counts
Obvious staging/dev-domain residue
Quick CSV evidence before deeper technical SEO work

What it checks

Crawler-facing response evidence inside wp-admin.

The plugin is for quick verification when pages look fine in a browser but the crawler-facing HTML layer may be blocked, redirected, canonicalized incorrectly, or carrying stale directives.

HTTP status
Redirect count
Final URL
Canonical URL
Meta robots
X-Robots-Tag header
Title presence
Meta description presence
JSON-LD block count
Obvious staging/dev-domain residue
Response time

Result table

Conservative labels, exportable rows.

Labels are conservative. They point to cleanup work; they do not predict rankings.

CSV export includes

Input URL, HTTP status, redirects, final URL, canonical URL, robots directives, title and meta description presence, JSON-LD count, dev/staging residue, response time, result, and details.

Labels are conservative: OK, Warning, Blocked, Error, and Needs review.

Data handling

Runs on demand inside WordPress admin.

Checks run on demand inside wp-admin. Results are shown for the current run and can be exported as CSV.

IndexLane Crawl Fetch Inspector does not send scan results, URLs, site data, or telemetry to IndexLane or any third party. It runs inside WordPress admin and checks only URLs or content selected by the site administrator.

Limits

A diagnostic helper, not a crawler suite.

This is a quick diagnostic helper, not a replacement for Google Search Console, Screaming Frog, Sitebulb, server logs, or a full technical SEO audit.

Auto-fixes Google Search Console API Rank tracking Scheduled scans External APIs Telemetry Email capture
