What web page and domain analysis / error checking / testing tools do you use for competitor analysis? sites like webpagetest
-
Just wondering what everyone is using,
I am looking to get as much insight and detail as I can on websites that are not currently being monitored by me... i.e. potential clients.
I use tools like pagespeed, webpagetest, loadimpact and open site explorer, google adwords, ispionage, alexa, semrush and well, looking for more.
I really just want to rip a website to the tiniest pieces possible in an organized and coherent manner... is there anything out there?
I have tried several other's which i no longer use (compete, 4q, woopra, nuestar, to name a few), I am not sure if I know exactly what i want, i just want more.... damn the human condition. lol

I think you have a good list already. A couple that can help as well would be Screaming Frog, it is a webcrawler, you could see page title issues, etc. from this. Just judging from your list it looks like you have more than enough tools that you are using. The bigger is setting up a process and using it.
Here are a couple blog posts about Website audits that might help you out.
This post goes into detail of the steps, tools,etc that you would want to do a proper website audit. http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-to-do-a-site-audit
This post is good if you are trying to just do a really short quick audit of a website. http://www.distilled.net/blog/seo/how-to-do-a-5-step-site-audit/

Webmaster Tools shows mystery errors that Moz does not
One of my campaigns is doing great in the sense that the website has been running fault free for a few months now. Great, of course! But... in Google Webmaster Tools errors keep coming in showing older media documents and pages. And it does not say where they are from. Probably this is more a Google question, but I thought I'd try to find some answers here first. I would appreciate any suggestions and help. Monique

Crawl report - duplicate page title/content issue
When the crawl report is finished, it is saying that there are duplicate content/page titles issues. However there is a canonical tag that is formatted correctly so just wondered if this was a bug or if anyone else was having the same issues? For example, I'm getting a error warning for this page http://www.thegreatgiftcompany.com/categories/categories_travel?sort=name_asc&searchterm=&page=1&layout=table

In alt tag of a image can we use #hashtag or domain.com ? Is that good SEO or not allowed ?
Some of the Google Search shows a title has a hashtag of an article, which contain keyword and while tweeting them, the title which has a hashtag automatically very good used for getting traffic to the blog. And other one, can we use the hash tag inside the alt attribute ? Or our domain name with .com in it. Like Google.com or #Google ?

I need a tool/tools to extract keywords from say 50 sites in one niche and then check the rank tor those sites
This is for telemarketing of seo services I want to have some insight into an industry before I call them could this be done with the adwords keyword tool api and then exported to excel. It would also be nice to have data on backlinks say from seo moz opensite explorer.. Its just that the research you do before you even call a potential client is so time consuming and you can never really check to see how they are ranking for there main keywords manually. We are trying to automate as much of this initial research as possible... Any Idea's Thanks
