The problem it solves

After publishing new pages, you're left wondering whether Google has actually indexed them, and checking each URL one by one in Search Console is tedious once you're managing more than a handful of pages.

Who it fits

SEO teams or content managers who track published pages and need to confirm indexing status.

How it works

  1. You run the check against the list of URLs in your Google Sheet
  2. The system inspects each URL's indexing status through Google Search Console
  3. It marks each row as indexed or not indexed
  4. Your spreadsheet updates with the latest results
What you get

Pages you know are actually indexed

Your tracking sheet updates itself with each page's indexing status, so you always know which content Google can actually find.

What you get

An updated spreadsheet showing which pages are indexed and which aren't.

What you need

A Google Sheets account and a Google Search Console account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
