Comparison of Alarm site and PR-CY, Serpstat, Ahrefs
PR-CY, Serpstat and Ahrefs projects have been around for a long time, and their task is to analyze, not audit, the site. That is, they provide various background information used by specialists. The mission of the Alarm Site is to provide a list of instructions for improving the site. That is, our report gives specific recommendations for correction, instead of analytical information as food for thought.
In this article, we compared exactly those checks of PR-CY, Serpstat and Ahrefs services, which are a call to action, an accurate recommendation for implementation.
This page will be constantly updated as updates to the Site Alarm service are released.

The list is missing:
- Duplication or suboptimal length of the H1 tag - this tag has lost its significance due to the development of search engine algorithms. Now such checks are of little relevance.
- Quality of content: insufficient number of words, unconsolidated duplicate pages - for such checks you need to creatively comprehend the page. Machine verification leads to massive false positive and false negative positives, which is why its result becomes meaningless.
- Identification of orphan pages is an extremely rare problem. And if it does, then piece by piece.
- Problems with nofollow links are no longer relevant, since search engine algorithms have long learned to do without this attribute.
