Web crawler quality matters.

Crawling software is a foundational aspect of website optimization platforms like Lumar. Crawlers traverse a website’s pages to collate the raw data required for sophisticated website analytics. Crawling your website is the first step in understanding and optimizing a website’s technical health and organic search performance, delivering an optimum visitor experience, and achieving compliance with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Our crawler is the cornerstone of Lumar’s website optimization platform. It’s consistently upgraded and enhanced with new releases to ensure fast, accurate, scalable crawls and alignment with the latest search engine developments.

What makes Lumar’s web crawler the best on the market?

Constantly improving

Lumar’s engineers and product team are always at work behind the scenes to ensure our crawler and our full platform offering are up-to-date with the latest search engine developments.

Improved rendering & parsing

Accurately identify rendering issues that may impact search performance. Our crawler takes full advantage of Google’s industry-leading rendering and parsing engine to ensure JavaScript-rendered pages are viewed in line with search engines’ own capabilities and users can accurately identify rendering issues that may impact their search performance.

Close alignment with the latest Google Search behaviors

Lumar’s crawling technology is built to align with Google’s own search engine crawling behaviors. We regularly release new versions of our crawler to Lumar users, helping to ensure website teams get an accurate, up-to-date picture of how search engines view their domains.

How Lumar users uncover their websites’ full potential

“Lumar gives you everything you need for website analysis in one place, clearly laid out, rather than using multiple sources or overwhelming you with data. And the Lumar team is really friendly, helpful, and responsive. If I have any questions, they get back to me straight away, so I don’t have to wait weeks to respond to simple questions. Working with both the Lumar platform and team really is seamless.”

Kunal Sharma, Senior SEO Manager
Lumar gives us all the data we need to understand the technical issues impacting our search performance. The data is laid out in a really logical way, with high-level health scores and visualizations that make prioritization and communicating with stakeholders easy, backed up by all the detail we need when we need it. It saves us time and helps us make meaningful progress, which is exactly what we need.

Andy Clear, Head of SEO
Lumar’s accessibility metrics have been a game changer. With its user-friendly design and comprehensive classification and description of issues, it has allowed us to quickly take action to improve our website’s accessibility and overall health, and it has been rewarding to watch our health scores steadily improve on the platform as a result.

Heather Bidwell, SEO Manager
“Lumar’s a huge time saver and really easy to use. I can see all issues in one place, know where to focus as everything’s broken down in a super logical way, and easily stay on top of progress with in-built tasks. Plus, the alerts catch any major issues before they lose us traffic or revenue. If you’re looking to boost your site’s technical health, Lumar and its amazing team have got your back.”

Arturs Cavniss, Technical SEO Lead
“Lumar Monitor is everything any agency or enterprise-level company needs to quickly track and look at updates, recommendations, trends, and issues. If you have hundreds of sites, it’s a way to look at things at-a-glance and know exactly what’s going on — and what issues you need to be paying attention to.”

Joshua Taylor Titsworth, Senior Analyst, Fandom.com
“Lumar removes unknowns so you can make more informed decisions. With the health scores, I can get an instant, at-a-glance view to see the impact of changes, delve into the details, and fix any issues immediately. I’m on the platform so regularly it’s one of the few passwords I still know!”

Rod Cunniam, VP of Digital Insurance Solutions
“Lumar Monitor has literally saved us hours a week. Instead of going to each site one by one and asking if work has been completed, I can quickly see if anything has been done and see the results and progress since then. It’s been a huge time saver and helped us see at a glance who’s been doing what. It’s been a huge, huge help.”

Joshua Taylor Titsworth, Senior Analyst, Fandom.com
“Lumar is a change enablement tool that’s helped us drive a +50% increase in digital conversion and +10% increase in search engine visibility”

Dave Cain, Head of Digital Marketing, Arriva
“The extra insights we get from our calls with Lumar have been really valuable. The support we get really is like having an extension of our internal team.”

Chris Nichols, Senior Manager, Enterprise SEO & Product Management
“Lumar has saved us an enormous amount of time. So much so, we estimate without the tool, and to cover the vast array of SEO analytics and insights highlighted within Lumar, we would have needed to employ another full-time member of staff within our digital team.”

Dave Cain, Head of Digital Marketing, Arriva UK Bus
“Lumar is fundamental when it comes to technical audits, as the tool carries out an in-depth analysis of each one of our brands. It provides insightful data that helps to shape our decisions. I love how easy it is to connect Lumar with Google Analytics, Google Search Console, and Majestic data for each of our brands. Lumar congregates all that data and makes my life a lot easier. Definitely valuable in helping us to identify the highest priority issues in a data set.”

David McAdam, Technical SEO Strategist
“Lumar is obviously top-of-the-line, with a lot of cutting-edge aspects to the technology. But it was also really important for us to find someone that would be a partner for us. The extra services are a big part of why we chose Lumar.”

Matthew Grabiak, Principal SEO Product Manager
“Lumar Protect is a very reliable tool. We used Protect, for example, to check if anything is redirecting where it shouldn’t be. Before, I had to check everything manually but, with Lumar, you can set up tests beforehand and really see what happens. It’s a great relief to know there is something that will notify me if anything has changed.”
