A Free SEO Tool to Check Whether Your Blog Content is Indexable by Search Engine

When you create a blog or website, if you want to get organic search traffic to it, you have to make sure that the content on your site or blog is indexable. The web content that I am talking about here is not only the text content, but also others such as images, audio and video content. Usually search engines can read plain text with no problem. But they can’t read images, audio or video. Content created with Flash or Java can’t be seen by search engines either. So what you need to do is to use “alt tag” or transcript to label these non-indexable content properly and convert them to SEO friendly content.

One free online SEO tool which can help you to find out how search engines see your blog or site is found on http://www.seo-browser.com/. At seo-browser.com, you just need to type in your blog’s URL and run the check, and it will show you what elements on your blog are visible to search engines in the result. If you found some important content on your blog can’t be seen on the result page, you will know these content may have the search engine index problem. Then you have to figure out how to make them more search engine friendly, if you really care about organic traffic to your blog.
Of course, alternately, you can also check the same thing by using Google Cache.
