Launching a new website without checking its technical SEO can lead to broken links, incorrect redirects, missing metadata, and other issues that are easier to fix before deployment. But how do you audit a website that is still in a staging environment or exists as a local folder? Your workflow should cover more than just checking the homepage. Review important URLs, HTTP status codes, canonical tags, internal links, images, and structured data. For website migrations, prepare a URL list and verify redirects before switching to the new site. KWT Spider offers three crawling workflows: Spider for full website crawls, List for checking a supplied list of URLs, and Offline mode for examining website folders before deployment. These options can help SEO professionals check different stages of a website project. However, the appropriate mode depends on what source material is available and what you need to verify.
