Single Page Analysis
What to Analyze
On-Page SEO
- Title tag: 50-60 characters, includes primary keyword, unique
- Meta description: 150-160 characters, compelling, includes keyword
- Meta description is not a restatement of the title: run
"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/claude-seo" run metadata_template.py --title "<title>" --description "<desc>" --json(heuristic, deterministic string comparison). A description that opens by repeating its own title and closes on a stock CTA ("Try it free now.", "Start free!") is templated metadata, the shape bulk generation jobs produce site-wide, and duplicated or templated metadata is a documented content-quality problem regardless of how original the body copy is - H1: exactly one, matches page intent, includes keyword
- H2-H6: logical hierarchy (no skipped levels), descriptive
- URL: short, descriptive, hyphenated, no parameters
- Internal links: sufficient, relevant anchor text, no orphan pages
- External links: to authoritative sources, reasonable count
Content Quality
- Word count vs page type minimums (see quality-gates.md)
- Readability: Flesch Reading Ease score, grade level
- Keyword density: natural (1-3%), semantic variations present
- E-E-A-T signals: author bio, credentials, first-hand experience markers
- Content freshness: publication date, last updated date
Technical Elements
- Canonical tag: present, self-referencing or correct
- Meta robots: index/follow unless intentionally blocked
- Open Graph: og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url
- Twitter Card: twitter:card, twitter:title, twitter:description
- Hreflang: if multi-language, correct implementation
Schema Markup
- Detect all types (JSON-LD preferred)
- Validate required properties
- Identify missing opportunities
- Never recommend HowTo (deprecated) or FAQ for rich results (retired May 2026); existing FAQPage need not be removed, use QAPage for genuine Q&A
Images
- Alt text: present, descriptive, includes keywords where natural
- File size: flag >200KB (warning), >500KB (critical)
- Format: recommend WebP/AVIF over JPEG/PNG
- Dimensions: width/height set for CLS prevention
- Lazy loading: report
lazy_methodper image (native | perfmatters | ewww | js-generic | none). Do not flag "not lazy-loaded" when JS lazy-loaders (Perfmatters, EWWW, lazysizes) are detected, they intentionally strip the nativeloading="lazy"attribute and usedata-srcplaceholders
Core Web Vitals (reference only, not measurable from HTML alone)
- Flag potential LCP issues (huge hero images, render-blocking resources)
- Flag potential INP issues (heavy JS, no async/defer)
- Flag potential CLS issues (missing image dimensions, injected content)

Error Handling
| Scenario | Action |
|---|---|
| URL unreachable (DNS failure, connection refused) | Report the error clearly. Do not guess page content. Suggest the user verify the URL and try again. |
| Page requires authentication (401/403) | Report that the page is behind authentication. Suggest the user provide the rendered HTML directly or a publicly accessible URL. |
| JavaScript-rendered content (empty body in HTML) | Note that key content may be rendered client-side. Analyze the available HTML and flag that results may be incomplete. Suggest using a browser-rendered snapshot if available. |
