Audit multilingual and multi-regional page clusters for the implementation rules that commonly break international SEO. Start from one or more public localized pages; the Actor can follow declared alternates and verify reciprocal return links across the fetched cluster.

What it checks

  • hreflang annotations in the HTML <head>
  • supported language, script, region, and x-default syntax
  • self-referencing annotations
  • reciprocal return links between fetched localized variants
  • duplicate language-region targets
  • absolute alternate URLs
  • canonicals pointing away from localized pages
  • noindex directives, redirects, and HTML language hints

Each successfully fetched page produces one filterable dataset record with a 0–100 score, blocking errors, warnings, missing return-link targets, and practical fixes.

Input and limits

Provide 1–10 public HTTP(S) starting pages. With alternate discovery enabled, the Actor follows declared alternate URLs up to a maximum of 50 successfully fetched pages. Every URL and redirect is checked against public-network rules. Credential-bearing, private, local, special-use, and unsafe-DNS destinations are rejected. Responses are limited to 2 MB, 15 seconds, and five redirects.

{
"startUrls": [{ "url": "https://www.example.com/en/product" }],
"followAlternates": true,
"maxPages": 20
}

Output

Every successful page audit includes the requested and final URL, HTTP status, title, HTML language, canonical, normalized alternates, self-reference and x-default flags, missing reciprocal links, score, verdict, errors, warnings, fixes, and audit timestamp.

Honest scope

This Actor performs deterministic checks against public HTML. It does not access Google Search Console, prove that Google indexed a page, detect page language from rendered text, or guarantee rankings or correct regional search selection. It checks HTML annotations, not hreflang supplied only through XML sitemaps or HTTP headers. JavaScript-injected tags absent from returned HTML may not be detected.

Pricing intent

Current Store price: $1.50 per 1,000 successfully fetched page audits plus a minimal Actor-start event, with platform usage included. Failed fetches are logged but are not written as billable audit results.
