I Built PagePulse — A Free Landing Page Analyzer That Runs in Your Browser

I Built PagePulse — A Free Landing Page Analyzer That Runs in Your Browser

I needed a quick way to audit landing pages without signing up for expensive SEO tools. So I built one.

PagePulse scores any landing page across 5 categories and gives you a letter grade (A-F) with specific, actionable fixes.

What It Checks

Category What's Analyzed
SEO Title tag, meta description, heading hierarchy, image alt text, canonical URL
Performance Document size, image count, script count, external requests
Accessibility Alt text coverage, form labels, heading hierarchy, color contrast signals
Mobile Viewport meta, touch-friendly elements, responsive indicators
Content Word count, paragraph structure, CTA presence, readability

How It Works

  1. Enter a URL
  2. PagePulse fetches the HTML and analyzes it client-side
  3. Get a score (0-100) for each category + overall grade
  4. See exactly what's wrong and how to fix it

No API keys. No server processing. No data leaves your browser.

Tech Stack

  • Vanilla JavaScript — zero dependencies, loads instantly
  • GitHub Pages — free hosting
  • ~800 lines of code — built in one afternoon

Why I Open-Sourced It

Most landing page tools either:

  • Cost $50+/month (Ahrefs, SEMrush)
  • Are locked behind signups (Google PageSpeed needs an API key for batch use)
  • Give you scores without actionable fixes

PagePulse is free, instant, and tells you exactly what to change.
