SEO Audit API: Broken Links, Meta Tags & Site Crawler

Give it a website and it crawls its pages (following internal links and the sitemap) and audits each one: an SEO score from 0 to 100, a clear list of issues, broken links, redirects, titles, meta descriptions, headings, canonical, images without alt text, Open Graph, structured data, word count and response time. Plus a site summary with the top issues, robots.txt, sitemap and HTTPS redirect.

No browser extension, no subscription: pay per page audited.

Why this one?

• Clear to-do list. Every page comes with its issues ranked as error, warning or notice, worst pages first.
• Real broken links only. Internal and external links are tested; links that only block bots (LinkedIn, some social sites) aren't reported as broken.
• Duplicates across the site. Duplicate titles and meta descriptions are flagged.
• Many sites in one run. Audit your clients' or competitors' websites in bulk.
• Polite crawler. Respects robots.txt by default and identifies itself.

What it checks

Area	Checks
Status	HTTP status, redirects and redirect chains, response time, HTML size
Meta tags	Title (missing, too long, too short, duplicate), meta description (missing, length, duplicate), meta robots / noindex, canonical
Content	H1 (missing, multiple), H2 count, word count (thin content), language attribute
Links	Broken links (404, 410, 5xx, dead domains), internal / external / nofollow counts
Images	Images without alt text, with their URLs
Mobile and social	Viewport tag, Open Graph title and image, Twitter card
Technical	Structured data (JSON-LD types), hreflang, mixed content, robots.txt, sitemap, HTTP to HTTPS redirect

The Site summary (the SUMMARY record, free) has the average score, pages with errors, total broken links, the 15 most frequent issues, robots.txt, sitemaps and whether HTTP redirects to HTTPS.

Good to know

• Pages are read as HTML, without running JavaScript. Sites built entirely in JavaScript may show fewer links and content.
• Sites with strong bot protection may block the crawler; those pages show their status code.
• The score starts at 100 and drops 15 points per error, 5 per warning and 1 per notice.
