How to run your first full Crawlwise audit

Before you start

Pick a canonical HTTPS URL that returns 200 without login. Audits refuse localhost and private networks.

Run the scan

1. Go to crawlwise home and enter your URL.
2. Click Get my free report (or the credit-priced label if signed in).
3. Wait for page, performance, and plan stages — cancel if you picked the wrong host.

Read the report

Start on Overview for score context, then Checks for line-by-line evidence. Performance and Markup tabs hold PSI and JSON-LD detail.

Save and upgrade

Create an account to persist history. On Starter and above you get monthly credits, exports, and site crawls.

You are already further along than it feels

“How to run your first full Crawlwise audit” is the kind of page people open when something feels off and they want a calm next step. That instinct is the whole job. You do not need a new stack, a new agency, or a weekend of tabs. You need one true thing you can fix, then another, then a re-check so you can see the page get cleaner.

You do not need a perfect site this week. You need the next true fix, and the patience to check it again after you ship.

Start with the page a customer actually lands on. Read what the server returns, not what you remember pasting into the CMS. If a crawler is blocked, fix that before you rewrite a headline. If a title is doing its job, leave it alone and move to the next check. Small honest wins beat a dashboard full of red.

When the free check has told you what it can, a full audit is the natural next sitting. It scores the checks that apply, says when something was not measured, and keeps the story if you save it. Plans start at $14.99 a month for Starter. Growth and Agency are there when a few sites become a client list. Nothing here asks you to buy a seat you will not use.

What a plan actually costs

The free tools stay free. You can open them, run them, and leave without an account. A plan is for the moment you want the report saved, a few sites watched, or the same checks from the API. The price on this table is the price at checkout. A yearly plan is ten months of the monthly price, so two months are on us.

A single-page audit is about 1.25 credits, and that includes the live probe of answer-engine crawlers. You see the estimate before anything runs. If a hold is not used, it comes back to your balance. Extra credits, when you already subscribe, are $9.99 for 20.

A comparison worth keeping

A typical SEO suite is wonderful at the work it was built for: a giant keyword database, a backlink index, ads research, seats for a team. Crawlwise is wonderful at a smaller, sharper job. We show the evidence on the page, we test whether answer-engine crawlers can actually fetch it, and we price the work in credits you can see before you click. If you need their index, keep it. If you need a clear read on this URL, you are in the right place.

Take the win that is in front of you. Run the check, fix one thing on staging, and come back. The page will still be here, and so will we.
