Extension summary

Get a clear at-a-glance sense of what Google and other search engines see when they view your site.

Search Engine Spider strips away images, scripts, bells and whistles to lay bare the basic underlying page structure and semantic design.

It highlights and itemizes headings, meta-descriptions, content, alt-tags and titles, links and more in a way that makes instant sense to designers and end-users.

Clean and simple overview of page content highlights problem-areas with a quick scroll. Output can be saved as a PDF and sent to a client for review.

Includes at a glance overview of:

  • Title
  • Meta Description
  • Breakdown of H1, H2, H3 and H4 headings
  • Word-count

Lightweight and easy to understand. Highlights SEO and Semantic Layout issues during the development process. We often save the output as PDF files and email them to our SEO clients so they can see what their pages look like before and after we perform SEO updates.

This extension is beautifully coded and the most lightweight, useful extension out there. Other designers don't know this, but this Chrome add-on? Pure freakin' gold, man. Bravo!
