Compare Screaming Frog SEO Spider vs SpyFu

About Screaming Frog SEO Spider

The Screaming is a desktop software, that crawls website links, pictures, CSS, script, and apps. Its main purpose is to fetch key onsite page elements for SEO and allow users to find common SEO issues.

This is a really useful site audit tool, that after indexing the entire site, exports data to an Excel file, and creates a spreadsheet of all pages and SEO elements. The Screaming Frog helps users to optimize their website by providing relevant information, such as the number of pages, number of titles and meta descriptions, broken links, and more.

The software is most effective in analyzing medium to large websites because manual check would be time-consuming, and a user would probably miss a redirect, meta refresh or duplicate pages. This is a piece of software that helps webmasters get the big picture of all important elements for SEO optimization.
