Understanding the importance of on-page SEO, we have released a few handy features that joined dozens of checkups we already provide in the On-Page API.
- First of all, we added some important features in the Pages, Pages by Resource, Duplicate Tags, and Duplicate Content endpoints:
resource_errorsandsocial_media_tags.
resource_errors – indicates the broken parts and issues in the HTML of the page based on the high number of tags inside a specific tag, DOM tree elements, and DOM depth.
social_media_tags – this array contains social media tags and their content. Supported tag include but aren’t limited to Open Graph and Twitter card.
render_blocking_scripts_count – indicates a number of scripts on the pages that block page rendering by a browser.
render_blocking_stylesheets_count – indicates a number of CSS styles on the page that block page rendering by a browser.
- Secondly, along with already available checkups in the
checksarray, we added the following fields across all mentioned endpoints:
https_to_http_links |
