Teardowns

Website teardowns from real crawls

For these website teardowns we point Crawl Cove at a public site, cap the crawl, respect robots.txt and write up what the crawler found on that day. No rankings claims, no traffic guesses: just the pages, the status codes and the tags as they were served.
