Wix Site Inspection: bulk checking indexability across your entire site

Wix Site Inspection connects to Google Search Console and presents indexability data for all your pages in a single, filterable dashboard. Instead of checking pages one by one in GSC, you can see the indexing status of every page on your Wix site at a glance, filter by issue type, and prioritise fixes systematically.

Running a Full Site Inspection

How to access Site Inspection

• Go to your Wix Dashboard and navigate to Marketing & SEO > SEO Tools.
• Click on Site Inspection to open the inspection dashboard.
• Ensure your Wix site is connected to Google Search Console (required for data).
• Click Run Inspection to pull the latest indexing data from GSC.
• Wait for the inspection to complete, which takes 1-5 minutes depending on site size.

Understanding the Results

• Indexed pages: pages that Google has crawled, rendered, and added to its search index. These can appear in search results.
• Not indexed - crawled: Google crawled the page but decided not to index it. Often a content quality signal.
• Not indexed - discovered: Google knows the page exists but has not crawled it yet. May indicate crawl budget issues.
• Excluded by noindex: pages with a noindex meta tag. Verify these are intentionally excluded.
• Redirect pages: pages that redirect to other URLs. Ensure redirects point to the correct destinations.
• Error pages: pages returning 4xx or 5xx status codes that need fixing.

Rich Results Status

Site Inspection also shows which pages have valid structured data and are eligible for rich results in Google. This includes FAQ schema, Product schema, Review schema, and other markup types. Pages with structured data errors will not earn rich results even if the content qualifies, so fixing validation errors is a quick win.

Complete How-To Guide: Using Wix Site Inspection to Fix Indexing Issues

This guide walks you through a systematic process for using Wix Site Inspection to identify, prioritise and fix indexing issues across your entire Wix site.

How to use Wix Site Inspection to ensure all important pages are indexed

• Step 1: Run a full Site Inspection from your Wix Dashboard > Marketing & SEO > SEO Tools > Site Inspection. Wait for the scan to complete and review the summary dashboard.
• Step 2: Note the total number of indexed versus non-indexed pages. Calculate the index ratio (indexed pages divided by total pages). A healthy Wix site should have an index ratio above 80%.
• Step 3: Filter the results to show only Not Indexed pages. Sort by page type or URL pattern to identify whether specific sections of your site have indexing problems.
• Step 4: For each "Crawled - currently not indexed" page, evaluate the content quality. Google chose not to index these pages, which usually means the content is too thin, duplicative, or low value. Either improve the content or add a noindex tag if the page is not important.
• Step 5: For "Discovered - currently not indexed" pages, the issue is often crawl budget. Improve internal linking to these pages by adding contextual links from your most authoritative pages.
• Step 6: Check all pages marked as "Excluded by noindex." Verify that every noindex page is intentionally excluded. If you find important pages accidentally tagged with noindex, remove the tag immediately in the Wix page SEO settings.
• Step 7: Review redirect pages to ensure they point to the correct final destination. Redirect chains (A redirects to B which redirects to C) waste crawl budget and should be updated to redirect directly from A to C.
• Step 8: Fix any pages showing 4xx or 5xx error status codes. For 404 errors, either restore the page or set up a 301 redirect to the most relevant existing page.
• Step 9: Check the Rich Results section for structured data validation errors. Click into each error, note the specific issue, and fix the markup in your Wix page code or structured data settings.
• Step 10: After fixing issues, use Google Search Console URL Inspection tool to request reindexing for each fixed page. This speeds up Google recrawling the corrected pages.
• Step 11: Re-run the Site Inspection one week after making fixes to verify that previously broken pages are now indexed correctly.
• Step 12: Schedule a monthly Site Inspection review as part of your SEO maintenance routine. New pages, updated content, and Wix platform changes can introduce indexing issues at any time.
