          Hi,
          I'd like to offer free website health checks (basic audits) and am wondering what tools other people use for this? It would be good to use something that presents the data well.

          Moz is great but it gets expensive if I want to offer these to many businesses in the hope of taking on just a few as clients and doing a full manual audit for them.

          So far I've tried seositecheckup.com (just checks a single page though), metaforensics.io and mysiteauditor.

          Thanks!

            Sounds like a good idea. I'm just trying to provide basic data on a potential clients' site - traffic, rankings, main errors and things that are working for them. Some tools actually do a pretty good job of this, but only seem to do this for the homepage, rather than the entire site. I guess I'll have to use multiple tools and hope the effort is worth it as it's a free service.

            Do you use SEO profiler?

              Hi John,

              Do you use SEMRush? I've been thinking of signing up. Can you run unlimited reports do you know? Screaming Frog is great and is what I'll use for thorough Audits but I'm just trying to generate lead generation/potential new client reports.

              thanks

                I like Ccreaming Frog and SEMRush as well. WebsiteGrader.com is good in a pinch too. SEO Profiler has a nice set of tools that have come a long way in the last 2 years. I think this is one of those tools where we all have a different opinion as to what works best, which would explain so many options!

                I feel like I have tons of great data...I just can't find a good way to display it graphically so it is clear to the client and helps me use the research to convert prospects. Maybe we should come up with a killer report template we can all use?

                  For a free report I would start with website.grader.com - a couple of screen grabs, Rand backed it a few weeks ago. For a very low cost report I would use semrush.com.

                  Hope that assists.

                      ScreamingFrog gives all the data you want.  Tools for the purpose of a creating a sleek report usually don't give the full picture.  It's those issues you draw out yourself that makes a difference.

                        Really it's best to use S. Frog then and to extract that info for a website review instead of trying to find software that gives the overall 'health' of a site and produces a report?

                        thanks for your answer by the way!

                          I second ScreamingFrog.  Nothing else comes close.

                            Hi James,

                            For page load, network, speed test I have used Pingdom.com in the past. They recently went more pay to use but it is a nice set of tools for basic test. There is still some free stuff you can use at tools.pingdom.com

                            For a quick SEO pass. Man I love ScreamingFrog! You can quickly identify header errors, long titles, descriptions, lack of h1 tags and so much more. When I do general quick audits for trouble shooting problems posted on this board, its my go to.

                            Hope this helps,

                            Don

                              There are great tools like http://www.opensiteexplorer.org that will tell you all about the inbound links.  What about the more basic and easier question:  What outgoing links does this site have?

                              How to check Page Authority in bulk?

                              Hey guys, I'm on the free trial for SEOmoz PRO and I'm in love. One question, though. I've been looking all over the internet for a way to check Page Authority in bulk. Is there a way to do this? Would I need the SEOmoz API? And what is the charge? All I really need is a way to check Page Authority in bulk--no extra bells and whistles. Thanks, Brandon
