Public HTML only Sitemap + GSC comparison Action-ready link suggestions
Step 1

Configure the crawl

Start from the homepage, discover crawlable HTML links, and compare the result with additional URL inventories.

Step 2

Add URL inventories

True orphan detection needs URLs from outside the crawl. XML sitemaps are automatic; Search Console or a URL-list upload adds stronger evidence.

Automatic

XML sitemap inventory

Compares sitemap URLs with pages reachable from the homepage.

Best evidence

Google Search Console

Finds traffic or indexed pages that may be absent from navigation and sitemaps.

Optional

Upload GSC ZIP, CSV, or URL list

Supports Pages.csv and columns such as Page, URL, Clicks, Impressions, CTR, and Position.

Sitemap inventory will be discovered when the scan starts.
Built for decisions, not just issue counts. The report distinguishes confirmed orphans, weak pages, crawl-only URLs, broken links, redirects, and likely intentional exclusions.

Use crawl and inventory evidence to review orphan candidates, weak pages, broken links, and redirects.

INTERNAL LINK & ORPHAN PAGE CHECKER

Compare reachable pages with your URL inventories

WebTrendSEO’s Internal Link & Orphan Page Checker reviews pages reachable from your homepage and compares them with additional URL inventories.

Choose a crawl limit and scope, set exclusions, and use automatic sitemap discovery or provide a custom sitemap. Search Console or a CSV, ZIP, or URL-list upload adds URLs that a link crawl may not find.

The report distinguishes orphan candidates, weak pages, crawl-only URLs, broken links, redirects, and possible intentional exclusions. Review crawl coverage and page purpose before acting on source-page or anchor-text suggestions.

How It Works

How to review internal links and orphan candidates

Start with your preferred homepage and a conservative crawl scope. Add an outside URL inventory so the checker can compare known pages with those found through links.

Enter the preferred homepage URL
Choose a conservative crawl limit and scope
Review robots, exclusions, and parameter settings
Add a sitemap, Search Console, or URL-list inventory
Run the audit and review candidate evidence
Validate source pages and add useful links selectively
WHY USE THIS CHECKER

Find pages that need a clearer path from your site

A link crawl cannot discover a page that has no path from the starting point. Comparing it with sitemaps or Search Console helps reveal pages that deserve a closer review.

Check whether each candidate is public, valuable, and intended to be reachable. Crawl limits, blocked URLs, and exclusions can affect the result, so validate the evidence before adding links.

Choose 50, 100, 200, or 300 pages. Candidate inspection can fetch up to 50 pages. Start conservatively and consider coverage when interpreting results.
