Next.js SEO Indexing & Crawl Budget Skill
Fix Google Search Console coverage issues, canonical problems, sitemap errors, and crawl budget waste in Next.js apps.
When to Use
- Use when a Next.js site has Google Search Console coverage issues such as duplicate canonicals, accidental noindex, crawl waste, or discovered-but-not-indexed URLs.
- Use when auditing sitemap, robots.txt, redirect, internal-linking, or static-rendering problems before an SEO release.
- Use when you need framework-specific examples for Next.js App Router metadata,
generateMetadata,robots.js, and sitemap routes.
Understanding Search Console Coverage States
| Status | Meaning | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Crawled – not indexed | Google crawled but chose not to index | Improve content quality + canonical + internal links |
| Duplicate without canonical | Multiple URLs serve same content, no canonical | Add explicit canonical to the preferred URL |
| Excluded by noindex | noindex tag present | Remove noindex if page should be indexed |
| Duplicate, Google chose different canonical | Google prefers a different URL than you specified | Align canonical with the URL Google naturally picks |
| Alternative page with proper canonical | Correct — non-preferred duplicate pointing to canonical | Expected behavior, not a problem |
| Not found 404 | Page deleted or URL changed | Add r |
