Sitewalk: SEO Audit & Crawler

Sitewalk crawls a website the way a search engine bot does and brings back its technical SEO problems ranked by impact. Each issue comes with the number of pages affected, example URLs and a fix written in plain English, so you can act on it yourself or hand it to a developer.

What it checks:

• Response codes: broken pages, server errors, redirects and redirect chains.
• Titles and meta descriptions: missing, too long, too short or duplicated.
• Headings and content: missing H1 and thin pages.
• Indexability: noindex pages, soft 404s, canonical tags that are missing, chained or point at redirects or broken pages.
• Links: broken internal links, links to localhost or private addresses, vague link text.
• Images: missing alt text, broken images, missing width and height, insecure images on HTTPS pages.
• URLs: spaces, double slashes, underscores, repeated segments, session ids, and calendar or filter traps.
• Structure: pages buried deep in the site and pages nothing links to.
• International: hreflang codes and return links.
• Mobile, social and markup: viewport, language attribute, Open Graph and Twitter tags, structured data presence.
• Security: pages still on HTTP and basic security headers on the home page.
• Sitemap: sitemap URLs that redirect, error, are set to noindex or point elsewhere with a canonical.

Every report also says what was not checked (for example page speed, backlinks and rankings) and notes when the page limit was reached, so nothing is implied that the crawl did not see.

Sign in with your Sitewalk account to run an audit. A site you have not verified is crawled up to 50 pages; verify a site you own and it crawls up to 500 pages. The full report is also available on the web with CSV and PDF downloads. The crawler identifies itself as SitewalkBot, obeys robots.txt and keeps a slow, polite pace. It does not render JavaScript, so pages that build their content in the browser may show fewer issues than a visitor would see. Powered by LibreCrawl.
