Domain Authority Checker

What does it do?

Domain Authority Checker evaluates the SEO strength and authority of multiple domains by analyzing publicly available signals. It checks Google indexed page counts, HTTPS status, meta tag quality, Open Graph presence, structured data, and other on-page SEO indicators to calculate an estimated authority score for each domain.

This actor is perfect for digital marketers, SEO agencies, and business owners who need to quickly assess the SEO health of multiple websites. Whether you are evaluating potential link building targets, auditing your own portfolio of domains, or researching competitors, this tool provides actionable metrics without requiring access to expensive third-party SEO platforms.

The authority score is calculated using a weighted combination of factors including indexed page count, HTTPS adoption, social meta tags, structured data presence, canonical tags, and overall meta tag quality. Scores range from 0 to 100, with domains classified as Low, Medium, or High authority based on their overall profile.

• No API keys or subscriptions to third-party SEO tools required
