Conductor + DeepCrawl integration
I used DeepCrawl as a part of the Conductor integration. I used it to crawl areas of our site to search for SEO issues.
- Categorizing issues found
- Crawling Javascript
- Difficult to drill down to site sections
- Too much data - Filtering could be improved

Deep Technical Audits in a Flash!
I use DeepCrawl primarily to kick off SEO engagements. It's the foundation of my technical SEO audit, and I also use it on occasion to troubleshoot little issues or irregularities I see in current or potential clients, or even just for research. It's nice to get the feel for a site that is succeeding with a crawl.
- The primary Dashboard is pretty excellent—not too much stuff to look at, just the main issues and a hierarchical breakdown of the site structure
- I love the Broken Links tab—this is a super simple way to find what's broken so you can fix site circulation issues
- The indexation tab is really nice too—no need to surf through thousands of URLs in a spreadsheet to assess the index
- I find the loading panel during a crawl to be a bit deceptive. It's very hard to tell how long a crawl will take—a more accurate estimate would go a long way.
- I love the "fetch time" tab in theory, but I have a hard time believing it—not that the figure they give is untrue, but I find it at wide variance with other tools. PageSpeedInsights will have a site looking disastrous and DeepCrawl will log it all fetching "quick". But perhaps page speed is just notoriously difficult to assess.
DeepCrawl makes my SEO audit easy. The visual output gives me an easy way forward, whether it be technical, or content based.
- GUI, when you run a crawl, the response is epic. It isn't just results, the results are very easy to understand.
- Again, as pertaining to the explanation above. If you use other crawl software, it can be difficult to get insights, whereas DeepCrawl makes it easy. You can get proper insights.
- It is so easy to put your stamp on things. DeepCrawl gives you an option as a consultant that you might not have had before, it is your backup.
- DeepCrawl really doesn't have too many problems, to be honest.
- I would only say that there is a pay per use issue, it is quite expensive. But if I am honest, it is worth every penny.
We use DeepCrawl as an integral data point for technical SEO analysis. It allows us to look at technical issues on the site as a whole or for individual pages. We also use it as a quick review for a potential client.
- Ability to look for a thin content on pages
- See if there are enough internal links on a page
- Look at hreflang issues
- From a layperson perspective, it is sometimes hard to navigate. Fortunately, we have tech wizards on our team that can set up very specific crawls.
DeepCrawl is being used by our company as a holistic website auditing tool. It addresses our need to monitor issues that occur with our site as well as impacts towards our search engine optimization efforts.
