What Is Sitebulb?
A crawler that puts more weight on explaining and prioritising what it found than on handing over the raw table.
Definition
Sitebulb is a website auditing tool, available as a desktop application and as a cloud service, that crawls a site and produces prioritised technical reports. Its emphasis is on interpretation: each issue comes with an explanation of why it matters and a suggested priority.
How it differs from a raw crawler
A conventional crawler returns a spreadsheet and leaves the analysis to you. Sitebulb scores and groups findings, and generates visualisations of site architecture such as crawl depth and internal link distribution. That is useful for communicating with people who will not read a spreadsheet.
Where it fits
It suits recurring audits and client reporting, where consistency of format matters and the audience is mixed. For bespoke extraction, where you know exactly which elements you want out of every page, a more configurable crawler is a better fit.
An audit that no one outside the SEO team can read will not get prioritised, however accurate it is.
