SEO Analysis Workflow

SEO Analysis Workflow

This workflow is for teams that want quick, evidence-based SEO checks from real rendered pages.

What You Can Validate with Gasoline

• Page titles and descriptions from rendered DOM
• Heading structure consistency (h1, h2, h3)
• Broken links and redirect chains
• Third-party script weight that hurts search performance
• Core loading behavior that affects crawlability and user experience

Practical Runbook

1. Start from a target page and 1-2 competitor pages.
2. Use interact({what:'navigate'}) to open each page.
3. Use analyze({what:'dom'}) to inspect key elements and metadata.
4. Use analyze({what:'link_health'}) to detect broken links and status issues.
5. Use observe({what:'network_waterfall'}) for heavy resources and bottlenecks.
6. Record differences in a shared issue and prioritize by impact.

Why This Works

Gasoline checks the page after scripts, styles, and client rendering have loaded. That gives you a more realistic view than static HTML alone.
