## Key features

- **Internal duplicate content:** Shows how much of each page's text also appears on other pages, highlights the matching passages, and leaves out menus and other common content.
- **Broken link check:** Checks every internal link and highlights the broken ones on the page where they appear.
- **Page Power:** Scores each page from 0 to 100 by how prominently it is linked from other well-linked pages on the site.
- **Reports and XML sitemap:** Gives a summary of every scanned page, a list of skipped pages with the reason, and a standard XML sitemap of the site.
- **Premium API:** Premium accounts can query results in JSON; each request that returns results costs 1¢ and returns up to 100 rows.

## Good for

- A quick free check of a small site for duplicate text and broken links
- Finding which pages are best linked internally
- Occasional larger scans paid by the page instead of a subscription

## Worth knowing

- Siteliner Premium has no subscription: each page scanned costs 1¢, paid from credits bought in advance by card or PayPal.
- The free scan stops at 250 pages and can be run on a site only once every 30 days.
- It checks internal duplicate content only; copies on other websites are the job of Copyscape, a separate service.
- Summary reports are kept for 185 days and highlighted page reports for 60 days.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.4 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. Siteliner scans a site for text repeated across its own pages, broken internal links and how well each page is linked, free for 250 pages and with no sign-up. The free scan runs once every 30 days per site. Beyond that you pay 1¢ a page from prepaid credits, and copies on other sites need Copyscape, a separate service.

- **Value for money: C.** Premium has no subscription: each page scanned costs 1¢ from prepaid credits, up to 30,000 pages. A 5,000-page scan is $50, where Spotibo's Lite crawls 5,000 URLs a month for $14.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A free scan of a site's 250 most prominent pages, with no sign-up. But it's once every 30 days per site, so you can't re-check straight after a fix.
- **Features: C.** Internal duplicate content with the matching passages highlighted, broken internal links, Page Power scores, skipped-page reports and an XML sitemap. It does that job fully, but it's a smaller job, and duplicates on other websites need Copyscape.
- **Ease of use: B.** No rating on record. You type in a site address and the scan runs, with no account and nothing to set up.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with no app. Premium has a JSON API, at 1¢ a request for up to 100 rows.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** Nothing Siteliner does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 2 things listed below take a company.

- You could not: A crawler that checks every page of a site.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
