Check the standard discovery location

This check requests the standard /sitemap.xml location and reports whether it is available. A site may use a custom sitemap path or several sitemap indexes, so a missing standard file does not prove that no sitemap exists. Check your CMS settings and robots.txt for other locations. Availability alone does not validate every listed URL or prove that search engines indexed it.

What this checks

Check whether a website exposes its standard sitemap for content discovery. The report distinguishes measured HTML signals from optional provider data and AI recommendations.

Understand the coverage

Public website analysis reads HTML without executing scripts. Hidden channel metrics and unavailable performance data remain unavailable. Competitor wording is a content signal, not keyword-volume or traffic data.

Frequently asked questions

Is this tool free?

Yes. You can run three fresh analyses daily, shared across SEO and competitor tools, with a one-minute cooldown. Cached results can be reused. AI explanations have a separate daily allowance.

Does the tool use AI?

The checks and scores come from measured evidence. When available, Postly’s AI adds a short explanation and practical recommendations. Measured results remain usable if AI is unavailable.

Can I audit my entire website?

The free audit checks one page. Eligible Postly dashboard workspaces can crawl up to 50 linked pages per run, save reports, compare previous results, and export findings.

Will my report appear in search results?

Submitted reports are not indexed. Public reports expire after one day; saved dashboard reports are retained for 30 days.
