    It looks like total dogshit. One of the first pages talks about PageRank, which hasn't been updated publicly in over a year and likely never will be again. Also points out Alexa ranking, as if that matters. I stopped reading after that.

      1. I don't see anywhere that it says Alex matters, it just shows what Alexa rank for the site, it is upto the the webmaster to decide it is important or not.
      2. PageRank - again same as Point 1, it is upto the webmaster to decide, it shows where it is placed according to the data available.
      3. you have said that you have stopped reading at Alexa Rank Slide which is just 4th slide from front page out of 53 slides and you are telling that it looks like dogshit, anyway that is just your opinion.

        There is an implied perception when you create a tool like this that you understand SEO, and that you are going to provide data that is useful for SEO.

        Alexa data is useless. PageRank will likely never be updated again.

        I continued on through all the slides. More useless stuff that I do not need a tool for. For example...

        Create a Facebook page (nothing to do with SEO).
        Cretae a Twitter page (nothing to do with SEO).
        How many characters is the domain name? Pretty easy to count without using this.
        Is the site in Dmoz? Your tool got it wrong. It says WF is not in Dmoz, but it is.
        Is the site using analytics? Again, not really necessary. Something I would already know.
        Text/HTML ratio. Not a factor.
        Doc Type and Encoding. Easier to find in the source code rather than scrolling through 25 slides.

        I could go on...

        Even if I found any of this data useful, the way it is presented is awful. Most of the data could easily be presented on one page instead of 45+ slides. For that reason alone, I would never consider using it over similar tools even if it provided useful data.

          Thanks for your opinion Mike, I understand your point of view, your opinion is this tool should give only SEO suggestions, In my opinion this tool is a over all website review tool and gives all the possible details related to the website. Like any other tool, It may not be useful and required for all.

          It says facebook/twitter page can be used to popularize your site, it does not say it will increase your ranking.

          Analytics Tool - not every one owning/developing websites know about it, so I guess, this tool suggests to use one if not used.

          Regarding Single page - it is single page site, it is not changing pages when you move, and displaying all at once and scrolling down to see more detail or see one data at a time is purely a personal choice, some people like this and some others.

          Just my opinion.

          By the way suggest your favorite tools for others benefit.

            Single page with slides. Okay. Whatever. It is still not very intuitive for a user. If I want what is on slide #37, I have to scroll through to get to it. That is a complete and total waste of my time.

            A better approach would be to have tabs or some sort of headings that could be clicked on to get me the data I want more quickly.

            So even for those who think the data presented is worthwhile and/or useful, the user interface is going to turn them away.

    Good luck keeping that Adsense account considering your moving ads with button clicks on the exact same webpage/URL.

      I don't think it violates adsense, it is not changing/moving or controlling ads, it just hides/shows different slides on click, ad is just placed at the bottom unchanged for all slides.

    I hope you get enough users using that tool and clicking ads to generate enough money to cover the hosting and domain fees. On a more serious note, I think we already have enough website analysis tools, none of which I use.
