Hello, Patrick! Greetings from Argentina. Thank you so much for sharing, this is pure gold! May I ask you for recommendations on how to solve those issues exposed in the crawling? For example, missing H1, 404 error codes, tackling 301, etc. Thank you beforehand!

Thank you, Andrew! This means the world to me. What are you finding easy and hard? I'd love to clear up any confusions, and if there's an opportunity to make a video, that'd help me out a lot!

[@andrewdowniephd]

@@patrickriceco Hi Patrick, I'd really like to do some Competitor comparison work. I'll be using SF to assess my client sites at the moment. Ahrefs and SEMrush are just a bit expensive to really use in depth.

[@TwoTrees-jb7nm]

Just started using Screaming Frog and your video was Great! Question? All my "https" URL's are canonicalized and my "http" are not. For security reasons, shouldn't it be the other way around? Thanks

[@muhammadtayyab4984]

very helpful video can you send me the resources

[@linusluki9498]

Great video!! How can one use the information to actually fix the issues to rank a website? Is there a tool you recommend to take the information from SF to the next step and actually rank a website or can SF do that as well?

[@19LionKing95]

Wonderful! Really good stuff. Cant seem to find my "Issues" tab tho... Anyone an Idea? (Neither "Segments"...)

[@ngoinhacaudo]

Please tell me how to fix the issues on my website as I have encountered many problems that I do not know how to resolve. Thank you so much for your time, and the video is great

[@saumilkapadia88]

I wanted to search for a sentence in the whole website, how is that possible?

[@RobLewis3]

Thanks for the vid. Is it possible to make a crawl and report based on keywords you're trying to optimize? There used to be a software called IBP, which would tell you your page is X% optimized for X keyword/keyphrase. It would go through meta title, URLs, headings, bold text, body text, img alts, etc. etc. and tell you how to optimize each one properly. Basically, I am just trying to create "before and after" optimization reports for clients.

[@gordondesign9752]

Thanks, Patrick. Great instructive tutorial! I have a question about 404s. How do I remove 404 references to URLs that no longer exist?

[@sabineblankevoort]

Great video so far! Can you share how to fix the issues as mentioned at 8:58. New video idea ;)

[@patrickriceco]

Yes! I will see what I can do! Are you interested in a run-down of the most common Issues in ScreamingFrog and how to fix them?

How to fix .

[@arthurwaldmann145]

Hi Patrick! What would you actually do with all those 301 links?

[@patrickriceco]

Remove the internal links to them! Especially any that are in navigation or footer.

[@patrickriceco]

You can export this in screamingfrog by bulk export > inlinks to 3xx errors, or click on the 3xx error and click on inLinks.

[@arthurwaldmann145]

Thanks!@@patrickriceco

[@surajhosmath]

please do a video to remove urls / fix redirect 301/404 errors

[@noorabir]

urL?

[@tomascarlsson8655]

When it comes to the Response Codes Internal Redirection(3xx) it says issue priority is LOW in Screaming Frog. I understand it can affect for example Page speed but do you still think in this case that it should be a higher priority then low? kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIWzf418n5ymaq8si=6Bi_fnSwrMRTTLfC&t=916
