Why SEO Audits Matter

Most people searching for a Moz crawl test, a Moz site speed check, or a Moz content audit do not actually need a $99/mo SEO platform — they need to know what is wrong with one page right now. Moz Pro is a capable campaign suite for keyword research, rank tracking, and backlink analysis, but its automated Site Crawl sits behind a paid plan (or a trial that converts to one), and it does not measure Core Web Vitals, security headers, or WCAG accessibility. WebsiteLinter is the free Moz alternative built for that first-pass job: paste a URL, get a prioritized fix list across all four pillars in about 30 seconds. Comparing other suites too? Searchers looking for something better than WooRank, Semrush, or Screaming Frog land on the same answer: start with a free, no-signup audit, then pay only when you need history, monitoring, or agency reporting.

What the SEO audit checks

Deep, actionable signals that generic checkers miss.

Moz-style crawl test — on-page and technical SEO signals on any public URL, no site verification or Moz Pro campaign required

Moz site speed alternative — Lighthouse performance score plus Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS), which Moz Site Crawl does not measure

Moz content audit alternative — title tags, meta descriptions, heading hierarchy, image alt text, and thin-content clues

Moz website grader alternative — one composite 0–100 health score across SEO, performance, security, and accessibility

Security headers — HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, and TLS validation that pure SEO crawlers skip

Indexability signals — canonical tags, robots directives, noindex leaks, and sitemap coverage

SEO Audit FAQ

Quick answers about what the audit covers, how it works, and what happens next.

Yes. You can run up to 3 free website audits per day with no signup, no account, and no credit card. The free report covers SEO, site speed, security headers, and accessibility. Pro ($9/mo) adds unlimited scans, history, PDF export, and competitor comparison — still a tenth of Moz Pro's $99/mo entry price.
Yes. Moz's automated Site Crawl requires a Moz Pro campaign (the free trial converts to a paid plan). WebsiteLinter audits any public URL immediately — no verification file, no campaign setup, no subscription. The trade-off: WebsiteLinter audits one URL deeply instead of crawling an entire verified site on a schedule.
Moz Site Crawl does not measure page speed. WebsiteLinter includes a full speed pass in every free audit: Lighthouse performance score, Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS), time to first byte, render-blocking resources, and image weight — the metrics Google uses as ranking signals.
WebsiteLinter flags page-level content signals: title tags, meta descriptions, heading hierarchy, image alt text, internal link integrity, and thin-content clues. A full site-wide editorial inventory still needs a dedicated content-audit workflow, but for a single money page the free audit surfaces the content issues that cost you rankings.
MozBar shows Domain Authority and link metrics on top of search results; Moz's free tools grade individual signals one at a time. WebsiteLinter grades the whole page at once — one composite 0–100 health score across SEO, performance, security, and accessibility, with every failing check listed by severity.
Choose Moz Pro when you need ongoing keyword research, rank tracking, backlink analysis, and scheduled multi-page crawls. Choose WebsiteLinter for instant first-pass audits of any public URL. Many teams use both: WebsiteLinter for triage and client/prospect checks, Moz for the ongoing campaign work.
