Which one is for you
Pick Little Warden if
- Fits if you look after many client sites and need to know before a domain or SSL certificate lapses
- Works for teams that want a warning when a release changes robots.txt, noindex tags or redirects
Look elsewhere if
- Too light for full site audits, as it watches set URLs and never crawls the whole site
- Tight if you're on Freelancer, with 20 URLs, 1 team member, no API and 2 weeks of history
- Watch out: payments aren't refunded, and your data goes once a cancelled plan's period ends
Pick WooRank if
- Fits if you run SEO checks on small sites and want a plain list of what to fix
- Works for agencies that send prospects branded website reports, from Premium
Look elsewhere if
- Watch out: the 3-day trial puts a $1 hold on your card and turns paid unless you cancel, and there are no refunds after that
- Too light for sites over 2,500 pages on Pro or 10,000 on Premium, where the crawl stops
- Pricey if you want white-label reports or Lead Gen, from Premium at $133.25 a month yearly, or pay monthly, with Pro at $89.99
- Tight if you track a lot, at 1 project and 50 keywords on Pro, while unlimited keywords, full API and SSO are on custom-priced Enterprise
- Watch out: the free extension shows only a basic score, and the page gives Pro 500 API calls a month in one place and 2,500 in another

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
