About:
Screaming Frog SEO Spider is a powerful and flexible site crawler, capable of crawling both small and very large websites efficiently. It analyzes on-site SEO elements, identifies broken links, audits redirects, and extracts critical data from pages. This tool is essential for technical SEO professionals to uncover issues and optimize website structure for better search engine visibility.
Key Features:
  • Crawls websites to identify broken links (404s) and server errors
  • Extracts on-page data like titles, meta descriptions, headings, and URLs
  • Analyzes page load speed and core web vitals metrics
  • Visualizes site architecture and discovers redirect chains/loops
  • Integrates with Google Analytics, Search Console, and PageSpeed Insights APIs
Use Cases:
  • Performing comprehensive technical SEO audits for client websites
  • Migrating websites by mapping old URLs to new ones to prevent traffic loss
  • Analyzing competitor site structure and on-page optimization strategies
  • Generating XML sitemaps and auditing robots.txt and meta robots directives
Alternatives:
  • Sitebulb – Offers a more guided, educational approach to auditing with excellent visualizations, but is a subscription-only model.
  • Ahrefs Site Audit – A cloud-based solution that integrates with a broader SEO toolkit, better for monitoring but less powerful for deep, interactive crawling.
  • SEMrush Site Audit – Similar cloud-based approach with strong integration into the SEMrush ecosystem, good for periodic checks and reporting.
