SEO Discoverability Audit

Outcome

Search visibility review

Returns indexing blockers, metadata gaps, hierarchy issues, internal-linking gaps, structured-data notes, and exact remediation actions.

Use case

Pre-publish or post-change SEO check

Use before publishing a new page, changing URLs, changing templates, updating metadata, or restructuring content.

Output

Evidence-separated SEO findings

Separates confirmed findings from items that require Search Console, live crawl data, sitemap access, or runtime evidence.

Scope and best-fit use

Use this prompt when the primary goal is search discoverability and page-level SEO readiness. It does not guarantee ranking or replace Search Console data.

Primary focus

Search discoverability

Review whether the supplied page or site material supports crawling, indexing, canonical URL clarity, metadata clarity, internal linking, and structured hierarchy.

May also surface

Technical and content-structure risks

The review may flag missing titles, weak descriptions, unclear headings, orphaned pages, weak internal links, sitemap gaps, and structured-data issues when visible in the supplied material.

Use a different workflow when

The main task is analytics or conversion tracking

Use the GA4 and funnel visibility audit when the main goal is event tracking, subscription visibility, checkout measurement, or conversion reporting.

Inputs required

Provide the page, template, metadata, URL, sitemap, internal-link context, and target search intent when available. Do not infer live indexing, ranking, or Search Console status without evidence.

Page or site material

Provide the page URL, rendered HTML, Markdown page, template, layout, metadata block, sitemap excerpt, or repository files relevant to the page.

Publishing context

State the page type, target audience, intended search intent, related pages, and whether this is a new page, updated page, or site-structure change.

SEO evidence

Provide sitemap.xml, robots.txt, canonical URL, title, meta description, headings, internal links, structured-data block, or Search Console evidence if available.

Copy the prompt and replace the MATERIALS block with the page, metadata, templates, sitemap data, internal-link context, and search-intent notes.

Review SEO discoverability and indexing readiness.

TASK:
Audit the supplied page, template, metadata, or site material for search discoverability, indexing readiness, metadata clarity, internal linking, structured page hierarchy, and structured-data readiness where relevant.

REVIEW SCOPE:
Focus on:
- crawl/indexing signals visible in the supplied material
- sitemap and canonical URL coverage when supplied
- title and meta description quality
- H1/H2/H3 hierarchy and page structure
- internal linking and orphan-page risk
- URL clarity and page purpose
- structured data only when relevant and supplied
- visible mismatch between page copy and intended search intent

EVIDENCE RULES:
- Base findings only on supplied material, live URLs you can access, or cited official documentation.
- Do not claim that a page is indexed unless Search Console data, live search evidence, or another explicit source is supplied.
- Do not guarantee ranking, traffic, impressions, clicks, or indexing.
- If a finding requires sitemap, robots.txt, Search Console, analytics, or live crawl evidence that is not supplied, mark it NOT VERIFIED.
- If you use external sources, cite official documentation where possible.
- Separate confirmed findings from evidence gaps.

CHECKS:
- Is the page purpose clear?
- Is there one clear primary title/H1?
- Are title and meta description specific, descriptive, and non-duplicative?
- Is the page hierarchy scannable and logically nested?
- Are related pages linked internally?
- Is the page reachable from relevant navigation, topic, guide, prompt, article, or index surfaces?
- Are canonical URL and sitemap signals supplied and consistent?
- Are robots or noindex blockers visible in the supplied material?
- Is structured data present only where it has a clear page-type fit?
- Are there missing SEO metadata fields that should be added before publishing?

OUTPUT:
A) Executive finding
B) Confirmed SEO blockers
C) Metadata fixes
D) Page hierarchy fixes
E) Internal-linking fixes
F) Sitemap / canonical / indexing checks
G) Structured-data notes, only if relevant
H) Exact recommended changes
I) NOT VERIFIED / missing evidence
J) Confidence
