Know what to fix on your own site
A score out of 100 and a fix list for your own Shingle site, right in your editor.
Your own Shingle site only
Checkup lives in your site's editor. For any other site, use our free checker.
Six things to get right
Each item has a button that opens the place to fix it.
Your site is live
Search engines can list only a published site with no password. Being live counts most in the score.
Search titles and descriptions
Each page has its own, about 60 characters for a title and 155 for a description.
Image descriptions
Every image visitors see has one. Screen readers say it aloud, and search engines read it.
Site icon and share picture
The icon shows in browser tabs and search results, the picture when someone shares a link.
Google Search Console
Your site is verified with Google, so you can see which searches find it.
Your own domain
An address of your own is easier to remember and trust. The plan can connect one.
How the score is worked out
Checkup reads your site's latest version and its settings right in the editor. There's nothing to run and nothing to wait for, and the list changes as soon as you save. Each check has a weight. Being live counts most. Page titles, unique titles, descriptions and image descriptions come next, and the rest count less. The score is the share of that weight you've done.
A score of 100 means nothing's left on this list. It can't tell you where your site will rank, because search engines decide that, and this list can't see your reviews, your competitors or the links pointing at you. It doesn't measure page speed or research keywords either. Think of it as the tidy-up a careful person would do before showing a site to anyone.
If you came here to paste in any web address and get a score, that's our free website SEO checker, which reads a public site the way a browser does and uses these same checks. Checkup is that list inside your editor, with a button on each line that opens the place to fix it.

Checkup itself reads your own Shingle site from inside its editor. To check any web address, use our free website SEO checker, which holds a public site to these same checks and a few more, with no account. For a site you've verified, Google's Search Console shows what Google itself has found.
Most look at page titles, descriptions, image descriptions, headings and whether search engines can reach the site. Checkup looks at those on your Shingle site, plus your site icon, share picture, Search Console and domain. Some checkers also follow links and measure speed, and Checkup doesn't.
No. It means nothing is left on this list. Where a site shows up depends on search engines, and they weigh much more than these checks, including your reviews, your Google Business Profile and how close you are to the person searching.
It checks part of it. The score counts image descriptions, and every page is held to checks on contrast, headings, names for buttons and fields, language and width before it can be previewed or published. That's useful, and it can't tell you a site meets a legal accessibility standard.
Yes, it's in every site's editor, in the trial and on the plan. Two of its checks need the site live on your own domain, which the trial includes, so a demo can't reach 100 until it's published there. Viewers on your team can read it, with nothing to press.
It takes you to the fix. Each item has a button that opens the right place, such as a page's details or your images, and you make the change, with no credits used. Publish to put it live. It doesn't write fixes with AI or scan on a schedule.
