ON-PAGE SEO

HTML Content Extractor

Sometimes you have the HTML but not the live page: a staging build, an email, a saved copy or a page behind a login. This extractor reads it with the same parser as the NdovuSEOLabs site audit and lists what search engines would read.

HOW IT WORKS

How to use the HTML Content Extractor

A page’s HTML source and (optionally) its URL.

01

Paste the page source.

02

Enter the page URL so relative links resolve correctly.

03

Copy the text or check the links table.

WHAT IT CHECKS

What it looks at, and how to read it.

Page tags, every link with anchor text, internal or external and nofollow, and the visible text.

Checks

What it checks

  • Title, description, canonical and meta robots
  • H1s and JSON-LD types
  • Links with anchors, internal or external and nofollow
  • Visible text and word count

Results

How to read the results

  • Links are resolved against the URL you give, so internal and external are judged correctly.
  • The text excludes scripts, styles and hidden templates.

The concepts behind it, in the SEO glossary: Rendering.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common mistakes, an example and the limits.

Mistakes

Common mistakes

  • Copying the rendered DOM from developer tools when you want the server HTML.
  • Forgetting the page URL, so relative links look external.

Example

A worked example

A developer pastes a staging page’s HTML and finds the canonical still points to the old domain before launch.

Limits

Limitations

  • Reads the HTML you paste; content added by JavaScript after loading is only included if the HTML you copied already has it.

Is the HTML uploaded?

No. It is read in your browser and never sent anywhere.

How do I get a live page’s HTML?

Open the page, choose View page source, select all and copy.
