They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. - **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use). - **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`. - **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`. - **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`. - **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

The actor fetches the domain's homepage and checks meta tags, header counts, robots.txt, sitemap.xml, SSL status, response time, Open Graph / Twitter Card tags, broken links, favicon, canonical URL, and language. ### Features - **Meta tags** — title, description, and keywords - **Header analysis** — H1 and H2 counts - **robots.txt** — existence check - **sitemap.xml** — existence check - **SSL** — HTTPS availability - **Performance** — homepage response time in milliseconds - **Social tags** — Open Graph and Twitter Card meta tags - **Broken links** — probes up to 20 same-origin internal links for 4xx/5xx responses - **Favicon & canonical** — favicon URL and canonical link - **Language** — `lang` attribute from the `` tag ### Input Fields | Field | Type | Required | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `domain` | string | ✅ | — | The domain to analyze (e.g. `example.com`). Protocol prefix is optional. | | `checkRobots` | boolean | ❌ | `true` | Whether to fetch and check the robots.txt file. | | `checkSitemap` | boolean | ❌ | `true` | Whether to check for a sitemap.xml file. | | `checkSocial` | boolean | ❌ | `true` | Whether to extract Open Graph and Twitter Card meta tags. | | `checkPerformance` | boolean | ❌ | `true` | Whether to measure response time. | ### Output Fields The actor pushes a single result record with the following fields: | Field | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | `domain` | string | The analyzed domain. | | `title` | string | null | Page `` tag content. | | `description` | string | null | Meta description content. | | `keywords` | string | null | Meta keywords content. | | `h1Count` | integer | Number of `<h1>` elements. | | `h2Count` | integer | Number of `<h2>` elements. | | `hasRobotsTxt` | boolean | null | Whether `/robots.txt` returns HTTP 200. | | `hasSitemapXml` | boolean | null | Whether `/sitemap.xml` returns HTTP 200. | | `sslEnabled` | boolean | null | Whether the site is accessible over HTTPS. | | `responseTimeMs` | number | null | Homepage response time in milliseconds. | | `ogTags` | object | Open Graph meta tags (key-value pairs, e.g. `og:title`). | | `twitterCards` | object | Twitter Card meta tags (key-value pairs, e.g. `twitter:card`). | | `brokenLinks` | array\<object> | List of broken internal links with `url`, `status`, and optional `error`. | | `faviconUrl` | string | null | URL to the favicon. | | `canonicalUrl` | string | null | Canonical link URL. | | `language` | string | null | Page language from the `<html lang>` attribute. | ### Usage Example #### Full SEO analysis of example.com ```json { "domain": "example.com" } ``` #### Quick check (skip robots, sitemap, and performance) ```json { "domain": "example.com", "checkRobots": false, "checkSitemap": false, "checkPerformance": false } ``` #### Check only social tags and meta information ```json { "domain": "example.com", "checkRobots": false, "checkSitemap": false, "checkSocial": true, "checkPerformance": false } ``` #### Analyze a domain with a protocol prefix (automatically stripped) ```json { "domain": "https://www.example.com/" } ``` #### Run via the Apify CLI ```bash apify run domain-seo-checker --input '{"domain":"example.com"}' ``` ### Notes - The actor fetches the homepage over HTTPS first, falling back to HTTP if the HTTPS connection fails. - Broken-link checking is capped at 20 same-origin internal links to keep runtime reasonable. Links are probed concurrently. - A single result record is pushed to the dataset per run. ### Data Source The domain's homepage is fetched with `httpx` and parsed with BeautifulSoup. Additional requests are made for `robots.txt`, `sitemap.xml`, and internal link probes. # Actor input Schema ## `domain` (type: `string`): The domain to analyze (e.g. 'example.com'). Protocol prefix is optional. ## `checkRobots` (type: `boolean`): Whether to fetch and check the robots.txt file. ## `checkSitemap` (type: `boolean`): Whether to check for a sitemap.xml file. ## `checkSocial` (type: `boolean`): Whether to extract Open Graph and Twitter Card meta tags. ## `checkPerformance` (type: `boolean`): Whether to measure response time. ## Actor input object example ```json { "checkRobots": true, "checkSitemap": true, "checkSocial": true, "checkPerformance": true } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
