This on-page SEO checker grades one page against the keyword you want it to rank for. Enter the page URL and the keyword, pick your market, and it checks whether the keyword is in your title, meta description, H1 and subheadings, tests title and description length and keyword density, and compares your word count with the pages in Google's top 10. You get a score out of 100 and a list of fixes. It is free and needs no signup.

- You have several pages to improve and want a quick score to decide which one to work on first.
Worked example
Our own hub page, graded F
We scored our free tools page for the search it should rank for.
- Page URL
- https://searchblueprint.io/free-tools
- Target keyword
- free seo tools
- Market
- United States
- Result
- F, 24/100, on-page score for "free seo tools"
- Your words
- 721
- Top-10 median
- 3693
- Density
- 0%
- Keyword in title
- Add the target keyword to the <title>
- Keyword in H1
- Add the keyword to the main H1 heading
- Title length
- 44 chars (aim 30-60)
- Content length vs top results
- 721 words vs ~3693 median in the top 10
An honest F. The exact phrase "free seo tools" is not in the title, the H1, the description or any subheading, and the pages ranking for it run about five times longer. The lengths of the title and description pass, so the fix is not formatting. It is putting the phrase people search for into the title and H1, and giving the page enough text to match what already ranks.
The checks and what they are worth
| Check | Passes when | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Keyword in title | The exact phrase is in the title tag | 3 |
| Keyword in H1 | The exact phrase is in the main heading | 3 |
| Content length vs top results | Your word count is at least 80% of the top-10 median | 2 |
| Keyword in meta description | The phrase is in the description | 1.5 |
| Keyword in a subheading | The phrase is in an H2 or H3 | 1.5 |
| Keyword density (sampled) | The phrase makes up 0.3% to 3.5% of the sampled text | 1.5 |
| Title length | 30 to 60 characters | 1 |
| Meta description length | 70 to 160 characters | 1 |
A pass earns the full weight, a warning half, a fail nothing. The keyword match is exact, so "seo tools free" does not count for "free seo tools".
