How to know if Google indexed my page

Common Errors That Affect Google Indexing
When we investigated our client’s site in more detail, we found some pages with errors that prevented their indexing. These are errors we’ve all experienced at some point because they’re quite common. For example:

Robots.txt file issues: This file is used to indicate to search engines which pages to crawl and which to ignore. However, when it’s incorrectly configured, it can end up blocking key pages or even the entire site. On the other hand, the lack of a robots.txt file complicates crawling since the crawler doesn’t germany mobile database have directives to follow. The same applies to sitemaps.
Multiple redirects or 404 errors: Redirects to non-existent pages (404) and multiple redirects confuse search engines. This not only makes indexing difficult but also negatively affects your ranking in the SERPs when indexing is successful.
Duplicate content: That is, pages with similar content and keywords but different URLs. If canonical tags or redirects are not used, Google’s crawler won’t know which version to index, which prevents indexing.
Noindex tags: As the name suggests, these tags prevent indexing. They’re used to temporarily hide test pages or URLs that don’t add value to the site’s ranking. When their use isn’t strategic, it’s considered an error.
Loading issues: A page that takes too long to load may not be fully crawled by Google. Server errors (such as 500 codes) can block the crawler’s access to the page, causing incomplete indexing.
All of these can be discovered using the “Index Status” section in Search Console. This provides information that helps you correct some errors preventing indexing.
