This isn’t W3C HTML validation which is a little too strict, the aim of this tab is to identify issues that can impact search bots from being able to parse and understand a page reliably. Validation Tab: - There’s a new Validation tab, which performs some basic best practice validations that can impact crawlers when crawling and indexing.

If you’re interested in how search engines crawl and index PDFs, check out a couple of tweets where we shared some insights from internal experiments for both Google and Bing. PDFs can be bulk saved and exported via ‘Bulk Export > Web > All PDF Documents’. You can also choose to ‘Extract PDF Properties’ and ‘Store PDF’ under ‘Config > Spider > Extraction’ and the PDF subject, author, created and modified dates, page count and word count will be stored. The outlinks tab will be populated, and include details such as response codes, anchor text and even what page of the PDF a link is on. This means users can check to see whether links within PDFs are functioning as expected and issues like broken links will be reported in the usual way in the Response Codes tab. The SEO Spider will now crawl PDFs, discover links within them and show the document title as the page title.

Similar to the existing UA integration, data will quickly appear under the ‘Analytics’ and Internal tabs when you start crawling in real-time - You can apply ‘filter’ dimensions like in the GA UI, including first user, or session channel grouping with dimension values, such as ‘organic search’ to refine to a specific channel - If there are any other dimensions or filters you’d like to see supported, then do let us know Parse PDFs: - PDFs are not the sexiest thing in the world, but due to the number of corporates and educational institutions that have requested this over the years, we felt compelled to provide support parsing them. Connect via ‘Config > API Access > GA4’, select from 65 available metrics, and adjust the date and dimensions. You’re now able to (begrudgingly) connect to GA4 and pull in analytics data in a crawl via their new API.
