Questions about this tool
robots.txt allows it, so why is it not indexed?
robots.txt only controls crawling. noindex, canonical, thin content or low quality can still stop indexing.
Does blocking in robots.txt remove a page?
No. To remove a page, use noindex and let Google crawl it, or use the removal tool in Search Console.
How long does indexing take?
From a few days to a few weeks. Good internal links and a sitemap help.
Is the site: search exact?
It is a quick check, not a full report. Search Console shows the exact status.
Is my page source uploaded?
No. The checks run in your browser.
