Why choose StoreVitals

  • Ecommerce-first — platform detection, structured data for Product/Offer/Review schema, and a 5-pillar scoring system designed for online stores rather than generic websites.
  • Multi-page crawl — StoreVitals crawls from homepage to product pages, surfacing broken links and inconsistencies across templates. SEO Site Checkup audits one URL at a time.
  • Accessibility checks included — WCAG 2.1 form label, ARIA landmark, skip nav, and empty link audits are part of every StoreVitals scan.
  • Public status pages — a shareable health dashboard at /status/[slug] is unique to StoreVitals and useful for agencies showing transparency to clients.
  • Embeddable health badge — drop a Verified by StoreVitals SVG on your site as a trust signal; no equivalent in SEO Site Checkup.
  • REST API + webhooks for technical workflows — push scan results into your existing tooling.
  • 20+ free standalone tools (HSTS checker, schema validator, broken link checker, etc.) — SEO Site Checkup keeps most utilities behind a paywall.

Why choose SEO Site Checkup

  • Established brand with strong organic search presence — many store owners have heard of SEO Site Checkup before they hear of StoreVitals.
  • Familiar generic SEO report card — A/B/C/D/F grades on common checks that's easy to share with non-technical stakeholders.
  • White-label PDF reports on lower tier — useful for solo SEO consultants.
  • Domain-level competitor benchmarking — see how your scores compare against three competitors in one report.
  • Backlink overview tab (basic) — not a deep backlink tool but enough to spot major link profile changes.
  • 10+ years of brand history — the established option for general-purpose SEO audits.

The verdict

SEO Site Checkup is a strong general-purpose SEO audit tool, particularly for solo consultants and small agencies who want a single report card to share with clients. StoreVitals is purpose-built for ecommerce: platform detection, structured data validation, accessibility audits, and a 5-pillar scoring system that maps to the things online stores actually need to monitor. If you run a generic blog or marketing site, SEO Site Checkup is a fine choice. If you run a Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, or custom ecommerce store, StoreVitals catches issues SEO Site Checkup doesn't look for — and runs them on a schedule with notification channels built in.
