I have a blog with some technical SEO issues. Google refuses to index some pages on my blog. Can you tell me a free tool to check whether Google faces problems indexing my blog pages?

Live Test in Google Search Console checks whether any serious technical issues that can prevent a web page from getting indexed. However, there is no guarantee that Google will index your web page.

Create a few internal links from other pages to this page. This will help google index the web page.

Sounds like quality issues. Google might be seeing those pages as low quality. Edit the page, add more original content, and index that page by Inspect URL tool in Google Search Console.
