What Our SEO Checker Analyzes

We run a comprehensive set of SEO checks that cover the most important on-page ranking factors. Here is exactly what we look for and why each check matters.

Title Tag Analysis

Your title tag is the single most important on-page SEO element. We check that it exists, falls within the optimal 50-60 character length, includes relevant keywords, and is unique to the page. A well-crafted title tag improves click-through rates from search results and helps search engines understand your content.

Meta Description

The meta description is your pitch to searchers. We verify it exists, stays within the recommended 150-160 character range, and provides a compelling summary of the page content. While not a direct ranking factor, a good meta description significantly boosts your click-through rate from SERPs.

Heading Hierarchy

Proper heading structure (H1-H6) helps both users and search engines navigate your content. We check for a single H1 tag, logical heading order without skipped levels, and keyword usage within headings. A clean heading hierarchy improves accessibility and helps Google understand your content's topical structure.

Open Graph Tags

Open Graph tags control how your pages appear when shared on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. We check for og:title, og:description, og:image, and og:url tags. Properly configured OG tags lead to more visually appealing social shares and higher engagement rates.

Canonical URLs

Canonical tags prevent duplicate content issues by telling search engines which version of a page is the primary one. We verify that canonical tags are present, self-referencing or pointing to the correct URL, and consistent with your site structure. Missing canonicals can split your ranking signals across duplicate pages.

Robots.txt

The robots.txt file tells search engine crawlers which pages they can and cannot access. We check that your robots.txt exists, is properly formatted, isn't accidentally blocking important pages, and includes a reference to your sitemap. A misconfigured robots.txt can prevent your entire site from being indexed.

XML Sitemap

An XML sitemap helps search engines discover and index all your important pages. We verify that your sitemap exists at the standard locations, is properly formatted, returns a valid HTTP status, and is referenced in your robots.txt. Sites with sitemaps get crawled more efficiently, especially larger sites with deep page hierarchies.

Image Alt Text

Alt text on images serves dual purposes: it makes your images accessible to screen reader users and provides context to search engines. We scan for images missing alt attributes, overly generic alt text, and keyword-stuffing in alt tags. Descriptive alt text improves both your accessibility score and image search rankings.
