About Screaming Frog SEO Spider

The SEO Spider crawls a website from your own computer and checks it for over 300 SEO issues, warnings and opportunities. It finds broken links and server errors, audits redirects including chains and loops, analyses page titles and meta descriptions, and detects duplicate content. Results can be bulk exported for fixing.

The free version crawls up to 500 URLs. A yearly licence removes the limit and adds advanced features. Installers are provided for Windows, macOS and Linux (deb and rpm).
