Deep crawlers inventory pages. SiteLeak turns customer paths into repair evidence.

Screaming Frog SEO Spider is a powerful desktop crawler for people who need detailed crawl data. SiteLeak is intentionally smaller: it gives a business owner a public scan, concrete customer path findings, a Fix Packet, and repeat retesting without requiring crawler setup or manual spreadsheet work.

Crawler depth versus booking, call, form, quote, order, and checkout evidence

A crawler can be excellent for detailed site inventories. SiteLeak focuses on the smaller set of public paths customers use to contact, book, request, order, or buy.

Who should use which

Use Screaming Frog when someone is comfortable configuring crawls. Use SiteLeak when a small business needs an automatic report with copy-ready fix steps.

Monitoring difference

SiteLeak is built around recurring scans, issue changes, and alerts for customer paths. The goal is to notice broken forms, links, and CTAs after routine site changes.

What this page helps you decide

Use this page when you need to separate specialist crawl work from a customer path repair report before scanning your own public site.

Practical fixes after the scan

Use SiteLeak findings to repair broken action links before lower-risk inventory cleanup.

Use crawler exports when a specialist needs page-level inventories, directives, metadata, and large crawl data.

Use SiteLeak Fix Packets as the booking, call, form, quote, order, and checkout evidence layer alongside broader crawl exports.

Rerun the scan after fixes when the business depends on recurring booking, order, quote, or contact paths.

Evidence examples

reliability.broken_linkHigh priority

Customer-facing homepage link returns an error

The sampled public link resolves to a same-domain URL that returns a failure status.

Fix: Repair the destination or add a redirect, then rerun the public scan.

conversion.phone_number_not_clickableHigh priority

Phone number is visible but not clickable

The public page includes a phone number but does not expose a matching tap-to-call link.

Fix: Wrap the phone number in a tel: link and confirm it appears near the customer path.

security.mixed_content_hintMedium priority

Secure page references insecure assets

The scanned HTTPS page includes an HTTP asset reference in the public HTML.

Fix: Move the asset to HTTPS or remove it, then retest the page.

How to choose

Start with SiteLeak when

  • A nontechnical owner wants a quick public report focused on contact, booking, order, quote, and CTA paths.
  • The business wants weekly or daily evidence checks without manually configuring a crawl.
  • The paid deliverable needs to be a concise automated packet with issue IDs, pages to fix, priority, and fix steps.

Add a broader tool when

  • A specialist needs broad crawl data, exports, directives, metadata inventories, or custom crawl configuration.
  • The project involves many page types and a technical team will inspect the crawl in detail.
  • The priority is deep site analysis rather than a customer path repair report.

Best use

  • SiteLeak is intentionally smaller than a desktop crawler.
  • A crawler can surface issues SiteLeak does not attempt to inspect.
  • A crawler report may still need business-language interpretation before a small-business owner can act on it.

Next step: scan your site

Use this guide as context, then run your own public website scan. The report shows whether there is a customer path issue worth fixing.

Fix Packet

Pay only when the scan finds a clear issue.

The free scan is the decision point. If the result matters, the Fix Packet adds the exact affected path, fix brief, owner and technical PDFs, and retest checklist.

Questions this scan can answer

Is SiteLeak a crawler replacement?

No. SiteLeak is a customer path scanner and monitor. A desktop crawler is still useful for deep site inventories and specialist workflows.

Why would an agency use both?

Use a crawler for broad technical investigation and SiteLeak for a repair report with recurring checks on the pages customers use.

Does SiteLeak crawl every page?

No. SiteLeak samples public paths and focuses on actionable booking, call, form, quote, order, and checkout evidence rather than exhaustive crawling.
