Technical SEO Checker
See what search engines see. Check crawlability, indexing, metadata, schema, headings, and links in one focused pass, in plain English.
This is one slice of the full scan
A full Stackra scan adds a Growth Readiness Score, expert AI reviews, and a prioritized action plan across your whole site.
How the Technical SEO Checker works
Enter your URL and Stackra reuses a recent scan of your site, or runs a fresh one, then reads the technical signals search engines care about: whether the page can be crawled and indexed, your canonical and social tags, your heading structure, your schema markup, and your link health.
Is more than one H1 a problem?
No. Modern search engines handle multiple H1 headings without issue. This checker only flags a page when it has zero H1, because that leaves your main topic unstated.
What schema should I add?
For most small businesses, Organization, WebSite, and Service or LocalBusiness schema cover the essentials. They tell search engines and AI assistants who you are and what you offer.
Does this check performance?
Yes. Because page speed is a Google ranking signal, this checker includes a quick page-speed read (load speed, layout stability, and responsiveness). For a deeper look with mobile and desktop side by side, use the Core Web Vitals Checker. The full Stackra scan combines everything.
What is a meta description and does it affect rankings?
A meta description is the short text that appears under your page title in search results. Google does not use it as a direct ranking signal, but it heavily affects click-through rate: a clear, specific description that matches what the searcher wanted gets more clicks than a generic or missing one. Google sometimes rewrites meta descriptions, but it falls back to yours when it cannot find a better excerpt, so writing a good one still matters.
What does "page not indexable" mean?
It means a signal in your page's code or server configuration is telling Google not to include this page in search results. The two most common causes are a noindex directive in the page's meta tags and a Disallow rule in robots.txt blocking the URL. Either one silently removes the page from search. This checker flags both so you can confirm whether the block is intentional.
How common are technical SEO issues on small business sites?
Very common. Across 850+ website scans run through Stackra, most sites have at least one meaningful gap: a missing or duplicate meta description, a page blocked from indexing by an old robots.txt rule, schema markup that fails validation, or internal links pointing to redirect chains. None of these are dramatic on their own, but together they add friction that compounds across every page Google tries to understand and rank.
