What this catches

  • Missing sitemap
  • HTTP URLs
  • Cross-host URLs
  • Missing lastmod
  • Duplicate entries

What this misses

  • Full-page crawl
  • Search Console truth
  • Indexing guarantees

Method

Backend authenticated audit fetches public site files, applies quota/billing, and returns structured findings. Raw fetched files are not stored.

Sitemap audits inspect XML and URL policy; they do not replace a full crawl or Search Console.
