Desktop website crawler for technical SEO
Screaming Frog SEO Spider is a desktop website crawler for technical SEO audits, used by SEO professionals to crawl websites, analyze on-page elements, and find issues like broken links, redirects, duplicate content, and missing metadata at scale. It is an industry-standard tool for site audits and crawl analysis.
The application crawls a website like a search engine, gathering data on URLs, page titles, meta descriptions, headings, response codes, redirects, canonicals, hreflang, structured data, and more, then lets you filter, export, and analyze the results. It supports JavaScript rendering, custom extraction via XPath, scheduling, and integrations with Google Analytics, Search Console, and PageSpeed Insights on the paid license.
Screaming Frog offers a free version that crawls up to 500 URLs (without saving, scheduling, or JavaScript rendering) and a paid license at around 199 pounds (roughly 279 dollars) per year per license that lifts the crawl cap and unlocks JavaScript rendering, custom extraction, scheduling, and API integrations, with volume discounts from five licenses. Aimed at SEO professionals and agencies, it competes with Ahrefs, Semrush, Sitebulb, SE Ranking, and Serpstat.
