Identifying **orphan pages**—pages on your website that are not linked to by any other page—is a crucial step in improving site structure and SEO. **Orphan pages** are often overlooked by both users and search engines, resulting in poor discoverability and lower rankings. By programmatically detecting these pages, you can ensure your site is fully interconnected and optimized for crawling.
