You can use Screaming Frog SEO Spider to crawl websites and identify technical SEO issues on your computer. It allows you to find broken links, audit redirects, review meta tags, and detect duplicate content. You can render JavaScript-heavy pages, extract custom HTML data using XPath or CSS selectors, and generate XML sitemaps. The application also connects to Google Analytics and Search Console to match live performance metrics against crawl data, helping you diagnose site architecture problems effectively.
