How the check works
Enter your website and the city you serve. The check reads your homepage and a few of your other pages the way a search engine does, and looks at the basics that decide whether Google can understand you at all: page title, description, main heading, structured data, the sitemap, robots.txt and the new llms.txt for AI assistants. Then it looks up what people in your area actually type into Google for your kind of business, with monthly search volumes and how hard each term is to win, and checks whether your site already shows up in the top ten for the most promising ones. Every number comes from a measurement or a data provider — nothing is estimated, and there is no made-up score. If you want to keep the result, we email you the full report.
What the check looks at
Technical basics from your own HTML, a short reading of how your site describes your business, keyword ideas for your service and city with real monthly searches and difficulty, and your current Google position for three of them. Each item has a plain traffic light and one sentence on what it means.
What happens with the result
Nothing is stored on our side unless you ask for the report. If you enter your email, you get the summary in your inbox and we can tell you how StrideRank would close the gaps it found — one researched article on your site every day.
Common questions
- Is the SEO check really free?
- Yes. No account and no card. You only enter your email if you want the full report sent to you.
- Where do the search volumes come from?
- From a keyword data provider that reports monthly Google searches and keyword difficulty. If that data is not available for a check, the result says so and shows no volumes at all instead of guessing.
- Why is there no overall score?
- Because nobody outside Google knows how the items weigh against each other. A single number would look precise but would be invented. You get the measurements and a traffic light for each one.
- How long does it take?
- Usually under a minute. Slow websites or busy data providers can make it take a little longer.
