Overview
mending.in has established meaningful visibility in Google Search, particularly across Samsung display, screen replacement and device-specific search queries.
The current data, however, indicates that the website has a substantial SEO opportunity that extends beyond conventional keyword optimisation.
The primary challenge is the relationship between the site’s URL inventory, indexing signals, sitemap configuration, canonicalisation, internal linking, structured data and technical implementation.
Google is discovering and crawling a significant number of URLs without currently indexing them, while our SEO audit has identified a large number of internal links, sitemap entries, structured-data implementations and front-end assets requiring attention.
This creates an opportunity to improve the efficiency of the existing SEO foundation before aggressively expanding content.
The central finding
mending.in does not simply need more SEO content. It needs a cleaner and more deliberate search architecture.
The recommended approach is therefore to work in milestones, beginning with indexation and URL control before moving into content expansion and ranking growth.
1. Search Performance Snapshot
The Google Search Console report covers 25 June to 24 September 2026.
The site generated approximately:
- 4,225 clicks
- 610,535 impressions
- Approximately 0.69% overall CTR
- Significant visibility across Samsung model-specific search queries
The query dataset also shows a substantial concentration of keywords around positions 6–10.
This is strategically important because many of these pages are not starting from zero.
They already have search visibility.
The opportunity is therefore to determine:
- Which pages deserve additional optimisation.
- Which queries are close to stronger positions.
- Whether multiple pages are competing for similar intent.
- Whether technical/indexation issues are preventing otherwise useful pages from performing.
- Whether internal linking can transfer authority toward commercially important pages.
2. Google Search Console Indexation Findings
The GSC Page Indexing report contains 6,590 URLs across the reported exclusion categories.
| Indexing status | URLs |
|---|---|
| Discovered – currently not indexed | 1,962 |
| Alternative page with proper canonical | 1,733 |
| Crawled – currently not indexed | 1,566 |
| Not found (404) | 636 |
| Page with redirect | 500 |
| Blocked by robots.txt | 121 |
| Duplicate; Google chose different canonical | 44 |
| Server error (5xx) | 15 |
| Excluded by noindex | 10 |
| Redirect error | 2 |
| Other 4xx | 1 |
The major indexation opportunity
Google currently reports 3,528 URLs as either:
- Discovered but not indexed, or
- Crawled but not indexed.
These should not all be treated as errors.
Each URL needs to be classified.
Possible classifications include:
- Valuable page that should be indexed.
- Duplicate page.
- Thin page.
- Outdated page.
- Alternative version.
- Search/filter URL.
- Location/model variation.
- Page that should consolidate into another URL.
- Page that should redirect.
- Page that should remain excluded.
The objective is not to maximise the number of indexed URLs.
The objective is to maximise the number of useful, search-worthy URLs that Google can confidently index.
3. Canonicalisation
Google reports 1,733 alternative pages with a proper canonical tag.
This may represent intentional canonicalisation, but it needs to be reviewed against the site’s information architecture.
For each group of related URLs, we need to establish:
Which URL is the primary search destination?
Then verify:
- Canonical tag
- Internal links
- Sitemap inclusion
- Page content
- HTTP status
- Redirect behaviour
- Structured data
- Navigation references
A canonical URL should ideally be reinforced consistently throughout the site’s architecture.
4. 404 & Redirect Management
GSC reports:
- 636 404 URLs
- 500 redirected URLs
- 2 redirect errors
Our SEO audit also detected a substantial redirect footprint.
The remediation process should classify URLs rather than blindly redirect everything.
URL decision framework
Keep & optimise
For valuable pages with search demand.
301 redirect
For permanently replaced URLs with a relevant successor.
Consolidate
Where multiple pages serve essentially the same search intent.
Remove / allow 404
Where the URL has no useful replacement and no strategic value.
Restore
Where an important page has accidentally disappeared.
This classification should be performed before large-scale redirect changes.
5. Sitemap Problems
Our SEO audit identified:
455 incorrect pages out of 463 sitemap checks.
This is one of the areas that should be addressed early.
The XML sitemap should contain URLs that are:
- Canonical.
- Indexable.
- Status 200.
- Relevant.
- Intended for search discovery.
URLs returning redirects, 404s, or canonicalising elsewhere should generally not be treated as primary sitemap destinations.
A clean sitemap gives Google a much clearer representation of the site’s intended search inventory.
6. Internal Linking
Our SEO audit identified:
938 broken internal links
and
436 pages with only one internal link.
Internal linking is particularly important for a website with many device/model-specific pages.
The architecture should allow Google and users to move naturally through relationships such as:
Device → Model → Repair problem → Display/service → Related model → Supporting information
Instead of treating every model page as an isolated destination, the site should create meaningful topical clusters.
Example architecture
Samsung
→ Galaxy S Series
→ Galaxy S24 Series
→ Galaxy S24 Ultra
→ Display Replacement
→ Display Price
→ Related Repair Services
This creates a clearer relationship between commercial and informational pages.
7. Structured Data
Our SEO audit identified:
1,708 structured-data markup errors.
This is a significant implementation area.
The first step should not be adding more schema.
The first step should be determining:
- Which schema types are currently deployed.
- Which pages use each schema.
- Whether the schema matches the visible page content.
- Whether required properties are missing.
- Whether conflicting schema types are present.
- Whether templates are generating invalid markup.
The objective should be clean, accurate and page-appropriate structured data.
Potential areas include:
- Product
- LocalBusiness
- Breadcrumb
- FAQ/Q&A where legitimately supported
- Article
- Service
Schema should support the page rather than be treated as a ranking shortcut.
8. JavaScript & CSS
Our SEO audit reports:
- 930 uncompressed JavaScript/CSS files
- 928 unminified JavaScript/CSS files
These findings suggest a front-end optimisation opportunity.
The remediation should assess:
- File size
- Compression
- Minification
- Render-blocking resources
- Unused CSS/JS
- Script loading order
- Third-party scripts
- Caching
- CDN behaviour
- Mobile performance
The goal is not simply to achieve a better audit score.
The goal is to improve actual page delivery and user experience without breaking functionality.
9. Other Technical Findings
Additional findings include:
- 7 4xx errors identified in the technical crawl.
- 20 pages blocked from crawling.
- 6 broken canonical URLs.
- 3 duplicate meta descriptions.
- 69 pages with overly long title elements.
- 7 pages missing H1s.
- 6 pages with low text-to-HTML ratio.
- 2 pages with low word count.
- 1,392 permanent redirects detected.
- 1 page with a single internal-link/anchor-text issue.
- Missing
llms.txtwas also identified in the current SEO audit.
These should be handled as part of the wider technical cleanup rather than as isolated projects.
10. Content & Ranking Opportunity
The search performance report shows that mending.in already has pages receiving impressions and clicks.
That changes the recommended content strategy.
Rather than immediately creating hundreds of new pages, the first content exercise should be:
Optimise what already exists.
Prioritise pages where:
- Impressions are high.
- Average position is approximately 6–20.
- CTR is comparatively low.
- Search intent is commercially relevant.
- The page already matches the query.
- The page has internal-linking potential.
Then evaluate whether the page needs:
- Better title.
- Better meta description.
- Stronger introduction.
- Better headings.
- More complete answers.
- Better internal links.
- Better supporting entities/topics.
- Improved schema.
- Better conversion paths.

12. What Success Should Look Like
The primary objective should not be “zero errors.”
A healthier mending.in should demonstrate:
- Cleaner sitemap coverage.
- Fewer unintended 404s.
- Controlled redirects.
- Stronger canonical consistency.
- Better crawlability.
- More meaningful internal linking.
- Valid structured data.
- More efficiently delivered pages.
- Higher indexation of strategically valuable URLs.
- Stronger rankings for existing opportunities.
- Better organic CTR.
- Growth in qualified organic traffic.
Ultimately:
Search visibility → Relevant landing page → User engagement → Enquiry / business outcome
should become the measurement chain.
13. Recommended Next Step
The audit has identified enough evidence to begin remediation, but implementation should be phased.
The recommended first engagement is therefore Milestone 1: URL & Indexation Control.
This creates the foundation for the subsequent technical, content and ranking work and prevents effort from being wasted optimising URLs that ultimately should not be indexed.
