Transcript of Nibbler SEO Checker Video Review

Hi. I’m Ross Barefoot with Horizon Web Marketing. We’re about to get started with the next in our series of tool reviews for free SEO checkup tools. Stick with me. I’ll be back in just a second. Hi, and welcome back. As you know, we’ve been working through a lot of free SEO tools that do a site analysis or a checkup on the SEO of your website. We’ve done quite a few in this series, and as a matter of fact, if you look down below in our playlists, you’ll see a playlist that is all of the various tool reviews that we have done so far. Make sure that you check those out. Also, I’m going to ask you right at the front, just in case you nod off during the video, please go ahead and subscribe to our channel. This gives Google an indication that the channel has some value, and we think it does. We hope you do too, so hit that Subscribe button. If you like this video, also hit the Like button, and that’ll make sure that YouTube and Google show it to more people.

In any case, let’s go ahead and get started with this particular tool that we’re looking at today. As you can see on my screen, what I’m showing is the website for the company that produces this tool, and I’m not really familiar with this company. They’re in the UK, and the name of the company is Silktide. Obviously, as they say, their business is in helping companies to come to grips with their websites and SEO analysis and so forth. They have a free tool that they offer, and this is where it’s located. It’s at nibbler.silktide.com. You can see Nibbler at the front. This is their free tool. They also have a Pro version of this tool, and I’m sure that’s the one that you hope you will, that they hope you will buy once you try out their free check. It’s actually a pretty cool tool, and one of the coolest things starts right off in the sense that you don’t have to give them an email address in order to try it out.

We’re going to go ahead and put it through its paces. We’ve been using this particular website that you see on screen. Very plain, very boring. It’s sort of a demo site that we use for this. It’s called Artisans of Colorado. It’s not at all professionally optimized. As a matter of fact, I’ve deliberately deoptimized certain aspects of this particular website so that we can perform these checks and have something we can work with. What we did is, we went to Nibbler, and we plugged that website in and generated a report. Once the report comes back, it takes a little while for it to generate, and it comes back looking like this. Really like their interface. It’s clean. It’s easy to use. Over on the right, you have the various sections of the report. They have a numeric grade that they give you. If you’re wondering how that numeric grade is composed, they’ve got a little overview over here on the left, so you can see like the accessibility grade. They’ve got a numeric rating on each of some subsections within that particular section of the website.

I like how things will expand and contract very quickly, and they’ve got some really good advice. As you drop down through their site, you can see they’ve got top priorities for website improvement. They’ve got links to read more material. They emphasize, right at the top, social media, and so that’s what they get started with is, just start scrolling through the interface. Now, I’d like to stay at the outset, but this tool is definitely not going to give you a complete audit, but we’ve checked half a dozen tools so far. None of them give you a complete audit, a complete SEO audit. Each of them will check certain aspects of your site. Nibbler is no exception. It’s not going to be complete, but what it does, it does pretty well. Let’s start out and just take a quick look at some of these sections. It’ll take a look, first of all, at your social media, and in this sense, it looks at whether you have a Facebook page that it can find or a Twitter account that it can find.

If you drop down here, it’ll also check for any indications that there have been some social shares of the website. Now, the one thing that, and I’ll go through and I’ll tell you some of the things that I fault about this tool and a lot of things that I really like about it in a general sense, one of the things that I do fault, and it’s a fairly minor fault, is that sometimes the organization of the various things could leave something to be desired. For example, when it comes to social media, they mix in this little rating here for Alexa. All right? It shows this Alexa ranking, which is really, doesn’t have anything to do with social media, so I don’t know why it’s sandwiched in between the analysis of a Twitter, or looking for a discovery of a Twitter account, and social shares. You’ll find that, in a number of different places, there’s kind of this curious organization that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Let’s drop down, though, and see where they start out. Here, and the very next section is sort of like that. The next section goes into meta tags. Usually, these tools will rank your title and your description tag all in the same area, because the title tag typically is what shows up here in a search engine result. This is, would be a simulation of a Google result, and the description tag, the meta description tag, is usually what shows up as the description in the snippet. I like the fact that they have a preview of what a search snippet might look like, and I like the fact that they will not only check the page I plugged in for a meta description tag, and for a number of other things. They’re also checking proactively for the randomly selected pages within the site. Notice they’re telling me here that these pages below that they’ve checked have no meta description. That’s a very important heads up.

If we go down a little bit farther, you’ll notice that it also gives me a review of other meta tags that show up within this page. Now, unless you know a little bit something about HTML and web design, this may not do you a whole lot of good, but it is good to be able to reference it. Notice how they also have multiple pages, so they’ve tried to keep a clean design by only showing you certain tags, and then within that block, you can go to a page two and a page three to see other meta tags. I think that’s nicely done. It’s a good interface.

I like this content designation here. It tells me whether I have thin content. That’s Google’s word. Thin content. In other words, not a whole lot of textual content on the page. It gives it to me in this nice little sort of speedometer, tachometer type of representation, which is good, because the amount of content you have is a little bit on the subjective side.

Then if you look down below here and we expand it, you’ll see that it gives me the number of words of textual content on the other pages it’s checked. I really like that aspect. Content is extremely important. Most of the tools don’t do something like that. It’ll give me some indication as to whether it has the requisite pages on the server. It’ll also talk to me a little bit about internal links. I’m not crazy about this particular section, because it makes a recommendation I don’t necessarily agree with. Namely, that you should always have text in your anchors. An anchor is a link to another page, and the anchor text is the text that you click on. Yeah, it’s a good idea to have relevant text that people can click on and that describes the link, but there are many situations where you don’t need to do that, so I have a little bit of a quibble for giving that a red circle with a white X in it.

Now, down here under Headings, it gives me a keyword cloud, which shows the relative importance of certain words that it’s discovered within the headings or the H tags of these five pages. This is a great way to visualize where you’re either weak on content or you’ve emphasized the wrong content. This is a website, for example, for artists and artwork, and you’ll notice that the word that comes up the most is the word “recent,” which has nothing to do with our topic. That would need to be something that, from a content strategy, we would want to look at.

screen shot of the keyword cloud for heading elements for SEO analysis

We’ll scroll down here, and let’s see. It says, “Some pages did not define headings correctly.” This is a correct observation, because headings are often not used correctly on webpages. Headings should be in a hierarchy with one single H1 tag on a particular page. Now, it doesn’t tell me that right here. It doesn’t tell me that there should only be one H1 tag that’s the prime top-level heading of a page. This has two H1 tags, and it really would have been best if it flagged me as that not being, that that was not according to best practices, but the fact that it shows it in a hierarchy is a good thing, and they emphasize that also when it comes to their recommendations.

Let’s keep it moving here. I don’t want to keep you here too much longer. They give you some heads up about some images. It gives you information on the domain age, URL formats. I’m going to drop down here. I like the incoming links. They show number of links and number of domains. One thing I’d like to comment on that I really find to be refreshing is that they give the source of that data. A lot of these SEO checkers won’t tell you what the source is, so this is Ahrefs. A lot of people just call them hrefs, and they’re basically a service. There’s one of the most reputable in the SEO industry. They are used by tons of SEOs. It tells us that they’re using reputable information for this.

We go down here, there is one bug in their interface. It says, “Page titles,” and it reports correctly that all of the pages they checked do have defined titles, but notice here it says, “No Title,” “No Title,” “No Title,” in the breakout of pages, and that is incorrect. Probably a bug that their development team is already working on fixing. They show that there’s analytics on the site, and even give a call out to the fact that it’s using Google Tag Manager, which shows that it’s fairly recent. That is the construction of the tool.

Then freshness, they basically just look at the last modified date on the various pages in order to give you an idea. This is not that great of a metric, because often, pages can be modified in ways that don’t really matter, but it does give you all the various states for all the various pages it’s found and that you’ll basically do more than just the pages that are in the review. Now, this is at the end. It’s giving basically a little advertisement for their professional level Silktide Insites. I’d have to say if I was in the business of buying tools like this, I’d be very interested in their professional level tool based on my favorable impression of their free tool. However, we’re, this series of reviews is basically just taking a look at free tools, so we’ll stop with this one.

Now, let’s jump over real quick to the tale of the tape, so to speak. We’ve been lining up the various SEO checkers that we’ve been reviewing, and we’ve been taking a look at the internal SEO audit checklist that we use as a team. When we’re going through a site and doing a full SEO audit, we check a total 91 items, and that number tends to grow as SEO becomes more complex. You’ll see that Nibbler would help us to have cleared a total of sixteen out of 91 of those items. That seems like a really low percentage, but you can see here Google’s own tool, Lighthouse, only helped us clear six of the items on our checklist. HubSpot’s Website Grader only cleared two, so Nibbler tied for second so far in the number of items on a full-blown SEO audit that it helps us clear.

That’s it for our review or our quick walkthrough of the Nibbler tool. Overall, I’d say this is one of the nicest tools I’ve looked at so far. It says a lot of good things about Silktide, the company that produced it. Personally, at some point, I might like to check out their Pro level tool, because this was a pleasant experience. In the meantime, if you have a tool that you’d like us to check, please go ahead and put it in the comments. If you’d like to ask us a question, put it in the comments. We’ll be glad to answer your questions, or if you just have an observation. Like I said at the outset of the video, please, if you find this useful, and even if you don’t, go ahead and hit the Subscribe button and the Like button, and we’ll be looking forward to presenting more what we hope to be very useful SEO and digital marketing videos in the near future. Again, my name is Ross Barefoot. Glad to have you join me for this walkthrough and hope to see you next time. Bye for now.

Video Review: Google Lighthouse SEO Audit Tool

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

Did you know that Google has its own SEO Audit tool? It’s part of their “Lighthouse” suite of webmaster tools, which now is itself incorporated into the developer tools that are built into the Google Chrome browser. (Lighthouse is also available as an extension for Google Chrome, which makes it conveniently accessible from the browser toolbar)

In this video review review I take a look at the SEO audit portion of Google Lighthouse. It certainly sounds promising, and after all, if it’s from Google isn’t it from the horse’s mouth? Spoiler alert: it’s not a replacement for a real SEO audit. Have you used Google Lighthouse? Do you like it? Hate it? Are you mystified by it? Watch the video and add your own comments and questions below.

Google Lighthouse Review: Video Transcript

Hi. This is Ross, with Horizon Web Marketing and it’s time for another SEO checker review. I’ll be right back.

As you probably know, I’ve been working through these free SEO checkers that are online tools that purport to give you an overview of the SEO potential of your website. In most cases, you go to a website, put in the homepage or any page, sometimes, of your website, and you click a button and they’ll give you a report.

SEO Checkers in General

Those tools are often referred to as SEO checkers, SEO checkup tools, free SEO analyzers. There’s a whole bunch of them out there, and if you look down below in our list, in the playlist that we have on this YouTube channel, you’ll be able to see that I’ve done quite a few reviews so far.

Now usually, what you do is you go to a website and you plug in the address for your website, and click a button, and it’ll go, and it’ll do its thing and it’ll check a whole bunch of different stuff, and it’ll give you a report onscreen.

The tool that we’re going to look at today is a little bit different for a couple of reasons. One is, it’s not a website. The second is, that it’s actually produced by a company you may have heard of called Google. Let’s take a look at Google Lighthouse, which is Google’s own tool for conducting what they call an SEO audit on your website, so let’s see how this works.

All right. I’ve been using this particular website, Artisans of Colorado. It’s sort of a demo site, and I’ve been using it in some of my other SEO checker reviews. We’re going to run this website through Google Lighthouse. Google Lighthouse has been getting quite a bit of ink lately. It’s actually been around for a couple of years. It’s a, basically a tool that Google makes available for free to webmasters to get a handle on all sorts of good stuff that has to do with your website.

An SEO Audit is Part of Google’s Developer Tools

Most recently, Google Lighthouse has been getting more publicity because the speed test results from Google Lighthouse are now being incorporated into Google’s own PageSpeed test tool which is … Let’s go here and just take a look just for chuckles here. I’m actually going to Google it. Google’s PageSpeed test, which is this one here, PageSpeed Insight. You can see PageSpeed Insights, and it will give you an overview of the speed of your website, and it’s tied into now another tool that Google had made available called Google Lighthouse.

There’s a couple of different ways that you can run Google Lighthouse. One way is by going and getting it as a free extension for Chrome. Now, I’ve done videos before about how you get extensions for Chrome and the way you do that is you click on the three dots up here at the top right of a Google Chrome browser and then you go to settings. Once you get to settings here, you can over and click on the hamburger menu at the top left.

Using Google Lighthouse as an Extension

Then go down and click on “extensions.” Now, the extensions is going to show you the extensions that are currently installed on your browser. If you click on the hamburger menu yet again, and go all the way to the bottom, you’ll see that you can open the Chrome web store. Go to the chrome web store and just go ahead and type in “Google Lighthouse.” If you want to, you can tick the little extensions filter here but, typically, it’s going to come up at the top anyway.

Here it is, and it says “rate it” on mine because I’ve already installed it. Usually, it will have a little button that says “add to Chrome” and you click, and then it asks you for permission to do it. You add that extension to Chrome, and then it’ll show up, this tiny little icon up here at the top right. See how I have that installed, and that means it’s as an extension on my site.

Now, if I go back to the site I want to check, so all I have to is click on that Lighthouse extension, and then notice it’s got a variety of options that we can set, so we’ll click on that. You’ll notice, it’s got a bunch of different categories it says to include. Performance, it’ll test the, whether your site is built according to standards as a progressive web app. This is nothing that I pay attention to right now. I probably should, but I don’t.

Accessibility, best practices and then finally, SEO. This is, I don’t know when they included the SEO audit, I think it’s been within the last year. I’m doing this in January of 2019. I could be wrong on that, but in any case, now we’ve got this nice little tool here, SEO.

What I’m going to do is I’m going to un-tick “progressive web app,” and I’m going to un-tick the “accessibility” one just to keep the set manageable. I’ll go ahead and click on “okay” for options. Now I’m going to click on “generate report.” Let’s see what we get. Normally, what Lighthouse will do is you’ll see it going through its paces, it’s checking various configurations of the site. Then it’s going to come up and open a new browser window, and it gives me a report.

Performance = Speed Performance

Now, notice it’s given me a 23 on performance. Now, this is how fast the site loads. We’re not really focused on load speed here, but we can use this in order to try to determine whether our site is below par or not. This is the same results or similar results that you would get if you go to Google’s PageSpeed Insights, that has best practices, and then finally, notice, my SEO audit. I’m getting 100% on my SEO audit, so that seems pretty encouraging at face value.

Let’s scroll down here and see what various categories that we have. Now, there is … I was actually pleasantly or, I guess, unpleasantly surprised to see that the best practices show, pointed me in the direction of something I was not aware of and that is that I have a security vulnerability on this website. You’ll notice it here, it says “one vulnerability detected.” You can typically always drop down the little dropdown button. If you’ve got a down triangle, then you click on it and it’ll show you more information.

This is telling me that, basically, the version I have of jQuery has a vulnerability, and so we would need to update jQuery to be able to patch that vulnerability. I’ll admit straight out, I did not realize we had this problem on this particular site. It’s basically a demo site, so it’s not a big deal but I intend now to go and check my other sites as well.

Checklist of Best Practices – Lucky 13

Now, it says that I’ve passed a total of 13 audits. I can see where I’m doing well, and you can see one of them uses https. In other words, our site is running securely. You can see its checked all sorts of different things, whether the page has doctype, it will talk about avoiding deprecated APIs. Some of this is pretty technical stuff. It displays images with correct aspect ratio. These are all useful tests. Really, although they are not under the SEO section of this audit, I would normally audit these things as part of an SEO audit, so you could say that it’s sort of an extension of their SEO audit.

Let’s go down to the actual SEO section right here. Now, it’ll tell me that there are two areas that I need to check manually. Notice, it tells me that the page is mobile-friendly and we do have some structured data going. If you’re not familiar with that, then this isn’t the place to learn, but structured data is looked for by Google and those other search engines that are still trying to be competitive.

Don’t Forget that Manual Check

Structured data is valid, but Google is going to tell me that I should still be checking these things manually as well. In my experience, this is wise advice. Often, automated tools will tell you that your website is mobile-friendly, and then you’ll go and look at it on a phone and you’ll see the automated tool didn’t really show you that it’s not mobile-friendly at all.

The one thing I don’t like about this, if you drop it down, it basically will just give you an opportunity to learn more, and then you’ll have links to more learning resources at Google, some of which are useful and some of which are pretty general. It points you in the direction of Google’s mobile-friendly test tool that you can use to explore your site a little bit more. Structured data. It’ll tell you more about what structured data is, about the testing tool and so forth, so it does give you resources to be able to follow up.

These past audits in SEO, now we’ll take a look, and those are then further subdivided into other categories. Mobile-friendly. Notice here that the mobile-friendly check is very, very sparse, in my opinion. Basically, it just checks this particular tag, which is a viewport tag, and normally that’s used if you have a responsive designed website.

You can’t be mobile-friendly without having that tag, but on the other hand, there’s a whole lot more to actually being mobile-friendly than simply having that tag. When it comes to explanations, Google’s explanation is pretty lean as well. Same way with the legible font sizes. Tells you that the legible text, notice, is greater than 12 pixels.

It still doesn’t tell you a lot of things like whether the fonts are too close together or whether particular elements are overlaying your site. I guess what I’m trying to say is this is a real cursory check. I would not consider this to be a full-blown SEO audit or even close to one. A lot of the tools we’ve checked that are website-based are more complete than this.

SEO Content Checks: Way Too Shallow to be Useful

Let’s go ahead and look at the other sections they have. Content, best practices. Here’s where I have more criticisms of this particular tool. For example, it says, “the document has a title element.” Okay, fine. Most webpages have a title element, but SEO would involve making sure that that title element was the appropriate length, that it described the content on the page, that it was tied into keyword research that you’ve done, that it would appear correctly on a search engine results page.

There’s a lot that goes into SEO beyond simply having a title tag, and so this is almost useless. As a matter of fact, if you looked at this and said, “Oh, hey, my title is fine,” then it’s actually done you a disservice. The same can be said for the meta description tag, is all it does is check to see if you have one. It doesn’t tell you anything about how well it’s been optimized.

The same criticism applies to “links have descriptive text.” Well, okay, descriptive, but descriptive of what? It says, “hreflang.” This is basically a tag that’s used to make sure that you’re compliant with best practices for multi-language, which is usually not an issue. “Document has a valid rel=canonical,” that’s good to know, but it’s still pretty minimal.

Then finally, “the document avoids plug-ins.” They have also crawling and indexing. “Page has success http status code.” Okay, that’s extremely basic. “Page isn’t blocked from indexing,” also basically what it means is like it’s checking your front door to your store during business hours and making sure it’s not locked. “Robots.txt is valid.”

We’ve gone through here a total of 11 checks that Google has done as part of their SEO audit. Now, here is a comparison, the SEO audit that we normally do on a website is 91 different checks, so this is indeed a pretty basic tool.

Bottom Line: D+ to C- as an SEO Audit Tool (Please don’t hurt me Google; I gotta say it like I see it!)

Before I conclude this review, and I’d give this tool a really low grade overall. No offense to Google. It’s great that they’re moving in a direction of giving us more information, but in terms of believing that you’ve done an SEO audit when you’ve run this, you haven’t.

I’m going to show you an alternate way to run Google Lighthouse, and like I said, it is useful, particularly when it comes to page speed, some of these other best practices, checking for security vulnerabilities. Here’s the other way to do it. When you’re looking at your page, you hit the F12 key on your keyboard. What the F12 key will normally bring up is your developer tools. These will show up as a panel. Most developers who do programming are very familiar with these. Usually, they’ll come up on this panel.

Now, you may have caught, when I first brought it up, it showed Lighthouse because developer tools now includes a hook into Lighthouse through the, when you click on the double arrow, depending on how much screen real estate you have, you often will have a “more,” a little double arrow, that indicates more choices. You click on that and you can go down to “audit.” Click on that, and notice, we can access, we can basically access the same Google Lighthouse tools here, and we didn’t have to get a plug-in to do it.

The plug-in is a little bit redundant now. In a certain respect, I want to show the plug-in availability because it does pull up the results in a separate browser window, which makes it a little easier to use.

All right, so there you go. That’s Google Lighthouse. The bottom line, if I had to give this a grade, I’d give it a C or a D as an SEO audit tool. Good to see Google giving us some SEO information, but we’d really like to see something that’s much more in-depth that what we have here. As far as other SEO checkers that are out there, most of the ones that we’ve tested are far more complete than this one that we just checked from Google.

Now, we’ll be doing more SEO checkers as we go along, and I hope this has proved useful to you. I’m going to ask you now for a favor, and that is, if you’ve made it this far, please go ahead and subscribe to our channel. When you subscribe to the channel, it basically is showing Google that, hey, you were interested in the video. Then Google will know to show the video to more people.

Go ahead and subscribe. Hit the “thumbs up” if you like the video and please also, when you do subscribe, click on that little alarm button next to the subscribe button. That means you’ll get a notification when we have new video content that will help you do the digital marketing that will help your website succeed on the Internet.

Thanks again for watching. My name is Ross Barefoot, and I hope to see you on the next video. Bye for now.

Google Analytics How To Video: Give Another Company Access to Your Account the Safe Way

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

When we start doing SEO and digital marketing for a new client we always need to request access to their Google Analytics accounts. In most cases where companies have used SEO and marketing agencies or consultants in the past, they have shared their Google login credentials as a way to let that entity into their account. So how does that sound to you? Well, if you have even a moderately cautious nature you probably hesitate to give the keys to your Google Analytics account to just anyone, much less a company you’re just beginning a relationship with.

And you don’t have to. Any professional digital marketing agency should be more than satisfied with the solution illustrated in this video. Use it and keep your analytics account secure!

Transcript

Hi. This is Ross with Horizon Web Marketing and this is a quick tutorial video to show you how to add a user to your Google Analytics account in order to give them access to the account. So here you’ll see, this is a demo of Google Analytics account and I’m assuming at this point that you know how to log yourself into Google Analytics.

And if you do [log into Google Analytics] you normally are given this dashboard or one that looks similar to it. And now you have an opportunity to add a user and we often will make a request of clients that we work with that they give us access to their Google Analytics account so that we can either manage it or do diagnostics on their site.

So you go down to the lower left there where it says Admin. Click on that and you’ll be given this panel here and Google allows you to change things that have to do with your account, your property or your view. Now you don’t need to understand what those three things are in order to do this process.

All you need to do is go to the account level which is normally where we need to have access. Click on User Management. It will show you what users are already granted access to this particular account. And then you’ll notice up here at the top right there’s a little blue or a white plus and a blue circle. You click on that and then we’re going to click on Add New Users.

Then you need to be able to do an email address that is a valid email address. So in this case I’m going to say Ross@HorizonWebMarketing. Then you have the chance to leave this by default. It’s checked and that is to notify new users by email. But if the person you’re adding doesn’t need to get an email you can just go ahead and un-tick that.

And then you also have a chance here to be able to enable certain levels of permissions. Now normally when we ask for access to account we want to have all permissions at least above the line here. Now to give full permissions you also need to tick this box here that says Manage Users and normally is you want somebody to be able to add other users to your Google Analytics account you’re going to have tick that box.
With respect to, for example giving access to a SEO Agency typically they’re going to want to have access these three and if you tick the top box here it’s going to by default, enable the other two. So at this point we are done with our job and now that new user is going to appear. And here I am, Ross@HorizonWebMarketing and then you’ll be able to see what the various levels of permissions are under the permissions column.

And once you’re done all you have to do is exit out. You can go back to the home screen of your Google Analytics property and you’re done. I hope this has been useful.
