SEO Log Analyzer

See how search engines crawl your site in real-time. The best way to understand how Google looks at your site.

Why do you need an SEO Log Analyzer?

Log Analysis allows you to see how search engine bots behave on your website.

One of the key functionalities of FandangoSEO is the SEO Log Analyzer.

SEO experts read the web server logs to understand the robot’s behavior on a website. This practice helps them optimize the crawl budget.

Our goal is to make things easier for both the search engines and the SEO specialists, as we acknowledge that reading log files isn’t easy when we count with thousands and millions of lines.

That’s why we’ve created a tool to quickly explore what’s being found by the bots and understand how Google and other search engines interact with a website

All you have to do is upload the log file to the log analyzer and start discovering if your SEO strategy is effective. You can also use the comparison tool to contrast the log analyzer with the web crawler results and see what you must improve to deliver a well-optimized website.
