Analyzing URL(s)...
Discover how this essential SEO tool helps you analyze the link profile of any webpage and understand its impact on your search rankings.
A Nofollow Checker is a tool that scans a URL, extracts all its external links, and identifies their `rel` attribute. It tells you instantly whether a link is "nofollow" or "dofollow," saving you from manually inspecting source code.
Understanding link types is crucial for link building and competitor analysis. This tool helps you assess the value of a potential backlink, analyze your competitors' strategies, and ensure your own site's linking policy is sound.
Our tool provides an immediate, easy-to-read report. You get at-a-glance stats breaking down the link types, plus a detailed table listing every link found. This clarity allows for quick decisions and efficient workflow.
For in-depth analysis or client reporting, you can export the entire list of found links to a CSV file with a single click. This feature makes it easy to integrate our tool's findings into your professional SEO reports and spreadsheets.
Learn the fundamental distinction between these two link types and their modern role in search engine optimization.
A DoFollow link is a standard hyperlink that search engines can follow. It passes authority (or "link juice") from the linking page to the destination page, acting as a vote of confidence. These are the most valuable types of backlinks for improving your SEO ranking.
A NoFollow link contains a `rel="nofollow"` attribute. This tag tells search engines not to pass authority to the linked page. They are commonly used for paid links, comments, and forum posts to prevent spam and manipulation of search rankings.
In recent years, Google has stated that it treats `nofollow` as a "hint" rather than a strict directive. This means that in some cases, Google may still choose to follow and pass value through a nofollow link. However, dofollow links remain the most direct and reliable way to build link equity.

Get an instant analysis with a simple workflow to diagnose your page's visibility to search engines.
Type or paste up to 15 URLs into the input field. Ensure each URL is on a new line. Our tool is designed for bulk analysis, saving you valuable time during technical SEO audits.
Click the "Check Indexability" button. The tool will begin crawling each URL in real-time, checking for meta tags, HTTP headers, and robots.txt rules simultaneously.
Once the scan is complete, you'll see a detailed card for each URL. The final "Verdict" will be clearly marked as Indexable or Not Indexable, with a breakdown of which specific signal is causing the status.
The "Verdict" is the final conclusion based on all checks. If any signal (like a `noindex` tag or a `robots.txt` block) prevents indexing, the verdict will be "Not Indexable." This gives you a clear, immediate answer on your page's status.
Find answers to common questions about our tool and the principles of page indexability.
Look at the detailed breakdown. The tool will highlight the specific reason. If a `noindex` tag is present in the meta tag or X-Robots-Tag, you will need to remove it from your page's HTML or server configuration. If the page is blocked by robots.txt, you will need to edit that file.
Using `noindex` is a key SEO strategy. You should apply it to low-value pages like admin logins, internal search results, "thank you" pages, and thin or duplicate content that could harm your site's overall SEO quality.
A `robots.txt` `disallow` command tells search engines not to crawl a page at all. A `noindex` tag allows them to crawl the page but instructs them not to show it in search results. For completely blocking a page, using `noindex` is the most reliable method.
Our bulk checker is designed for efficiency. You can check up to 15 URLs at a time. Just paste your list of URLs, with each one on a new line, and the tool will process them all in a single batch, providing a separate report card for each one.
An error can occur if the URL is invalid, the website is down, or if the server is blocking our crawler. Please ensure the URL is correct and publicly accessible. If the problem persists, the website may have security measures in place that prevent automated checks.
