Silkpath: free SEO, AEO and GEO website crawler
Silkpath is a free website crawler for SEO, AEO and GEO audits. Enter a website address and it visits every page, then shows what is wrong and where, in plain language. It was founded, designed and built by Raj Meena, a Digital Marketing Manager.
How It Works
THREE STEPS
Type a domain to scan the whole site, or the address of one page to check just that page.
It crawls the site and shows what is wrong and where, in plain language.
Every issue has a severity, a page count and a filter, so you can reach the exact URL in a few clicks.
What It Checks
EIGHT AREAS, PAGE BY PAGE
Crawl and indexing
Is every page found, reachable and allowed in search?
- Status codes, redirect chains and loops
- Noindex and robots rules, canonicals
- XML sitemaps, including sitemap indexes
- A site health score, with every issue shown as Error, Warning or Notice
On-page content
Are titles, headings and copy doing their job?
- Page titles and descriptions, with pixel width
- H1 and H2 headings and word count
- Exact and near-duplicate pages
- Readability and mobile viewport
Accessibility basics
Can everyone use the page?
- Missing page language
- Unlabeled form fields
- Empty buttons and links
- Duplicate IDs
Links and media
Where do links go, and what is broken?
- Every internal and external link, with source page and anchor text
- Broken links and orphan pages
- Images with missing alt text or large files
- CSS and JavaScript files, plus an interactive link graph
Markup
Does the code tell search engines the right things?
- Structured data: JSON-LD, Microdata and RDFa, with validation messages
- Open Graph and X cards
- Hreflang
AI search readiness
Will answer engines understand and cite the site?
- FAQ and HowTo markup
- Question-style headings and direct answers
- Author details
- AI crawler rules in robots.txt, llms.txt, and a check that asks Gemini whether your site is cited
Speed and security
Is it fast, safe and served properly?
- PageSpeed Insights scores with real-visitor Core Web Vitals
- Google Safe Browsing
- HTTPS and mixed content
- Security headers
Your own rules
Check anything specific to your site.
- Extract any text with CSS selectors or regular expressions
- Search every page for text that is present or missing
Why Silkpath
WHAT MAKES SILKPATH STAND APART
Silkpath checks how ready a site is for answer engines and AI search, in the same crawl as its technical SEO checks. It can even ask Gemini whether the site is cited.
- llms.txt
- AI crawler rules: GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and others
- AI-user-agent firewall test
- FAQ schema
- Question headings
- Direct answers
- Citations
- Asks Gemini if your site is cited
An animated site map with an issue log that lights up the affected pages.
- Broken link
- Missing title
- Redirect chain
See what was fixed and what is new, and repeat a crawl daily or weekly.
Send a report through an expiring link, or export any section or the whole report to PDF, Excel or CSV.
PageSpeed scores with Core Web Vitals from real users, plus Google Safe Browsing.
A site health score, with every issue shown as Error, Warning or Notice.
Runs in the browser on desktop and phone. Nothing to download or set up.
Shared checks are aligned with Screaming Frog counts, including indexable-only checks and the duplicate rules, so you can run both and compare.
A ZIP of every page HTML, optionally with CSS, JavaScript, images and fonts, up to 499 MB per crawl.
Extract text with CSS selectors or regular expressions, and search every page for text that is present or missing.
Every filter has an explanation and a what-to-do line, with a 255-page in-app guide that has a picture for every button. Site-wide issues get a tag, so you know one template fix clears them.
Only the filters that found something are shown, and one button brings the empty ones back.
Jump to any section or feature by name.
It tells you when a site needs JavaScript, when bot protection blocked the crawl, and when an external site is simply refusing crawlers instead of being broken.
It refuses private and internal addresses, has an optional password lock, saves your crawl history to your cloud storage, and keeps deleted crawls in a 30-day Recycle Bin.
It reads each page's raw HTML and does not run JavaScript, so a desktop crawler like Screaming Frog is still the better tool for very large or JavaScript-heavy sites.
These are features of Silkpath itself. Please only crawl websites you own or have permission to check.
