Sitebulb is a website auditing and crawling tool for technical SEO, available as desktop software for Windows and Mac and as a browser-based cloud crawler (Sitebulb Cloud), providing prioritized recommendations across 300+ SEO issues.

Profile

Sitebulb is a technical SEO auditing and crawling tool that scans websites and turns raw crawl data into prioritized, plain-English recommendations across 300+ SEO issues. It's available as desktop software for Windows and Mac, or as the browser-based Sitebulb Cloud, and is built for SEO professionals and technical auditors who want deep site-structure analysis rather than an all-in-one marketing suite.

Who builds it

Sitebulb is developed and sold by Sitebulb Limited as a focused, standalone crawler rather than a bundled SEO platform. Rather than combining keyword research, rank tracking, and backlinks into one dashboard, it specializes purely in crawling a site and explaining, issue by issue, what's wrong and why it matters — either on your own desktop machine or in the cloud. That narrower focus is deliberate: Sitebulb doesn't try to compete with all-in-one SEO suites on keyword research or backlinks, and instead puts its engineering effort into making crawl output genuinely readable for people who aren't full-time technical SEOs.

Core features

  • Desktop crawling for Windows and Mac, giving full control over crawl resources since audits run on your own machine.
  • Sitebulb Cloud, a browser-based version of the crawler for teams that prefer not to manage local crawl infrastructure.
  • Prioritized recommendations across 300+ SEO issues, translating raw crawl data into explained, actionable findings rather than just raw tables.
  • Per-audit URL limits that scale by plan, starting at 10,000 URLs per audit on the entry Lite plan.
  • A 14-day free trial equivalent to Sitebulb Pro (desktop), with no credit card required, so you can test the full desktop feature set before buying.

Pricing

  • Lite: from $18/month (1 user) — restricted to crawling 10,000 URLs per audit; suited to small and simple SEO audits.
  • Higher desktop tiers add more users and larger per-audit crawl limits.
  • Sitebulb Cloud is priced separately and is considerably more expensive, starting from £95/month and scaling up beyond £20k/year for large teams doing heavy crawling.
  • There's no permanent free plan — only the 14-day free trial (equivalent to Sitebulb Pro desktop, no credit card needed).

Who it's for

Sitebulb suits SEO consultants, in-house technical SEOs, and auditors who want a dedicated crawler with clear, prioritized explanations of site issues rather than a broader marketing suite. Small sites and solo practitioners fit the entry-level Lite desktop plan with its 10,000-URL cap, while larger teams that need bigger crawl volumes or prefer not to run local crawls can move to Sitebulb Cloud, though that comes at a materially higher price point. Because the free trial mirrors the desktop Pro tier rather than a stripped-down demo, it's worth running a real audit on your own site during the 14 days before deciding whether the Lite plan's 10,000-URL cap will actually be enough for your ongoing work.

Frequently asked questions

What does Sitebulb cost?

Sitebulb's entry desktop plan, Lite, starts at $18/month for 1 user, limited to crawling 10,000 URLs per audit. Sitebulb Cloud, the browser-based version, is priced separately and starts much higher, from £95/month, scaling up beyond £20k/year for large teams doing heavy crawling.

Is there a free version or trial of Sitebulb?

There's no permanent free plan, but Sitebulb offers a 14-day free trial equivalent to Sitebulb Pro (desktop), with no credit card and no up-front commitment required. That gives you the full desktop feature set to test before choosing a paid plan.

What core features does Sitebulb offer?

Sitebulb's core is crawling a website and turning that crawl into prioritized, explained recommendations across 300+ SEO issues, available either as desktop software for Windows and Mac or as the browser-based Sitebulb Cloud. Per-audit crawl limits scale by plan, starting at 10,000 URLs on the entry Lite tier.

Sitebulb vs Screaming Frog — which should I choose?

Sitebulb differentiates itself with prioritized, explained recommendations across 300+ SEO issues rather than just raw crawl tables, available as desktop software or as Sitebulb Cloud. Screaming Frog is a long-standing, widely used desktop crawler in the same technical-SEO space. If you want built-in prioritization and explanation of issues alongside the crawl data itself, Sitebulb's approach is worth testing via its 14-day free trial; compare both tools' current feature sets directly for your workflow.

How much can Sitebulb crawl per audit?

On the entry Lite plan, Sitebulb is restricted to crawling 10,000 URLs in total per audit, aimed at small and simple SEO audits. Higher desktop tiers and Sitebulb Cloud plans raise this limit for larger sites and teams doing heavier crawling.

Does Sitebulb have an API?

API availability isn't documented in our sourced data for Sitebulb — its pricing page focuses on desktop user seats and per-audit crawl limits rather than API access. If programmatic access matters to you, check Sitebulb's current documentation or contact the vendor directly to confirm.
