Overall Satisfaction with Screaming Frog SEO Spider
We utilized Screaming Frog SEO Spider on 2 fronts. The first was during the content audit process. This allowed us to gain visibility within our strategy department to the content that was available and begin analyzing those pages in depth during the audit process (especially when connected with Google Analytics natively in Screaming Frog). The second use was to analyze the client site from an SEO viewpoint. The ability to slice and dice the data was invaluable.
- Deep crawling to uncover site content
- Google Analytics connection to retrieve use data for pages crawled.
- Google Console connection to allow for deeper SEO understanding
- User interface takes some time to get used to. Not easy to just hop on and get started.
- When pulling Google Analytics data in to the system it defaults to a certain range would rather have this be a prompt to select.
- I would like to be able to have a mode for a quick crawl with possibly less data or be able to have it run outside of my computer system. There were instances where my computer(laptop) could not handle the load needed to crawl adequately.
- This had allowed us to be more productive and efficient and thus deliver quality results faster.
- Screaming Frog allowed us to sell-in deeper services that would not have been otherwise able to deliver.
- Increase in services provided and efficiency led to productivity in other areas as well.
- None
Screaming Frog is unique in my opinion in its offering. I did not review or examine other products.
