How to Choose a Website Grader

If you’re looking for a website grader, you’re probably wondering if your website can be improved. Perhaps the design or content has become outdated, or maybe the site doesn’t work properly on mobile devices.

Regardless, it’s time to take an objective look at your existing website so you can decide how to improve it – and, a website grader is the perfect tool.

However, not all website graders are created equal. In general, there are two types of website graders, which we’ll describe in this post so you can decide which type is best for you.

1. The Software-only Website Grader

This type of website grader relies only on software to determine the quality of your website. These website graders are fantastic tools for understanding the fundamental strength of your website’s search engine optimization, code quality, social media links, and more.

Some of these tools go beyond grading only your website to give you scores on things like your social media presence – here’s a great example of such a tool.

2. The Software + Human Website Grader

This type of website grader combines a software grader with a personal, human review of your website. While website grader software does a great job of assessing the fundamental strength of your website, having an expert review your site provides additional insight into other issues.

These include the quality and professionalism of your site design, the way your content is displayed for your target customer, and even the way your pages and subpages are structured. HubRunner’s website grader uses several leading software website graders in combination with a personal review by one of our website experts.
