The backbone to an SEO Audit

What differentiates Screaming Frog SEO Spider from other similar products?

Screaming Frog largely does what other crawlers can, but does it in a simple, accessible fashion. There are other features available in SEO Spider like the ability to crawl for looking for specific information on a page, or creating a tree map of a websites architecture, however its best feature is how throughly, quickly and easily it crawls and website.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It's not a fancy feature, but I love that there's a very simple output from any crawl that indicates potential issues. The user can click the issue and all the affected URLs are shown. It just gives a quick indication of a website's general SEO health.

What do you dislike most about this product?

it would be useful if there was an online crawling option. Running screaming frog on a big website can really slow my laptop while its running and memory often runs out.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would try the free version, its good enough for a small website and will give a good idea of what you could get by paying for a subscription in future.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing

10 /10

What differentiates Screaming Frog SEO Spider from other similar products?

There are other products that can do bits of what Screaming Frog does, but no single one that can do it all.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Having worked in the SEO industry long enough to have had to do many of the meta data extraction tasks it accomplishes in minutes by hand, I'd have to say that base feature is my favorite.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I've yet to encounter a software service department that satisfied, but in terms of features I no longer have complaints about Screaming Frog.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you haven't already been using it, Screaming Frog is the on page SEO tool you've been looking for.

  • Helps Innovate
