Basic Detection

  • Confirm the final URL, HTTP status, redirects, and canonical target.
  • Check title, meta description, H1, headings, internal links, and image alt text.
  • Review visible content depth and whether the page clearly satisfies the selected keyword.

Keyword Detection

  • Review target keyword placement in title, description, headings, and body copy.
  • Compare one-word through five-word phrase density tables.
  • Identify brand terms, topic focus, and missing demand signals.

Code Detection

  • Inspect JSON-LD schema, Open Graph, Twitter cards, language, viewport, and favicon signals.
  • Check robots meta, robots.txt, sitemap discovery, and indexability conflicts.
  • Flag SSR/CSR risk when critical content may not be visible to crawlers.

Performance and SERP Context

  • Review mobile and desktop PageSpeed/Core Web Vitals data when available.
  • Compare SERP competitors and domain context for the selected keyword.
  • Use report history to see whether the same URL and keyword are improving over time.
