Oncrawl Product Updates

Hi ,
​

Go beyond Impressions and Clicks tracking with your Google Search Console data.

We've just enriched the Ranking Performance report with two new metrics:

• Ranking Queries (Unique Queries with Impressions)
• Ranking Pages (Unique Pages with Impressions)

You can now track those two metrics in time across all available charts in the report.

Most SEO reports focus on traffic and rankings. But if you’re only looking at impressions and clicks, you’re missing key insights into how your site truly performs in search.

Ranking Pages is the number of distinct pages that appear in search results. This helps assess how well your content is distributed across search. A high number suggests broad visibility, while a low number may indicate that only a few pages are driving impressions.

Ranking Queries is the number of distinct queries for which your pages rank. Unlike just counting impressions per page, this metric shows how much keyword coverage your content achieves. A high number of ranking queries suggests strong topical authority, while a low number might indicate content isn’t optimized for diverse search intents.

Hello there,

📣 Our new Content Lens is now available.

Content is no longer evaluated only through keywords. Search engines and AI systems also look at whether a page answers the full intent behind a query, covers related questions, and presents information clearly enough to be understood and reused.

With Content Lens, you can now audit content quality at scale from an SEO and AI Search perspective.

See how ready your content is for AI Search

Content Lens analyzes your pages during a crawl and gives each analyzed page a Content Quality Score.

This score is based on five dimensions:

• Query Fanout Coverage
• Relevance & User Experience
• Meta Tags Optimization
• Heading Structure
• Grammar & Spelling

At the core of the analysis is Query Fanout Coverage: whether your page answers the follow-up questions users and AI systems may ask around the main topic.

This helps you move beyond keyword checks and evaluate whether your content is complete, useful, and ready for modern search experiences.

How to start

Go to your project and create a new configuration with Content Lens.

Before launching the crawl, use the Content Lens filters and limits to focus the analysis on the pages that matter most.

Quick tip: select indexable pages only so your Content Lens quota is used on content that can appear in search results.

Launch offer: 5,000 Content Lens tokens 🎁

To celebrate the launch, we have credited 5,000 Content Lens tokens to eligible accounts.

This is a plan benefit for customers with a 12-month or more commitment, so you can test Content Lens on your site and start reviewing your scores right away.

Hello ,

You can now define your own CSS selectors for Header, Footer, Navigation, and Aside to fine-tune how Oncrawl classifies internal links by page zone.

By default, Oncrawl uses standard HTML tags like header, footer, nav, and aside, but you can now edit these default values and add multiple rules per zone to better match your site structure.

How to set it up:

Go to your crawl configuration → Analysis → Link Position.
​

A few tips:

• Edit the default selectors if needed
• Add several rules per zone when your templates vary
• Test the setup on a few URLs, ideally across different page templates
• Save your changes before launching the crawl

This update affects link position metrics and filters in the Link dataset. It does not change URL discovery during the crawl.

Hey there,

Segmentation editor has been updated 🆕

We are introducing Exclusive groups, a new mode that helps you prevent overlaps between groups and create easier-to-manage segmentations.
​

How it works:

By default, a URL can belong to several groups if it matches multiple group definitions.

When Exclusive groups is enabled, groups are applied from top to bottom. As soon as a URL matches a group, it is assigned to that group and excluded from all groups below.

This means each URL can only belong to the first matching group in the list.

You can use drag and drop to reorder your groups and define which group should take priority.

Please note that this mode only applies to top-level groups, not subgroups.

How to enable it:

When creating or editing a segmentation, enable the Exclusive groups toggle to decide whether this mode should apply to the segmentation.

You can change this setting at any time by going back to the segmentation editor and switching the mode on or off.

This makes it easier to fix overlapping groups and handle complex segmentation rules with a simpler, sequential logic.

Hello there,

📢 We updated our URL normalization settings:

URLs can exist in multiple formats while pointing to the same page. Oncrawl applies normalization rules to ensure consistent crawling and analysis.

We are introducing two new options for better control of this behavior:

1️⃣ Normalize URL encoding

Normalize encoded and decoded URLs to reduce duplicates and inconsistencies across paths and query parameters.

2️⃣ Rewrite // to /

Normalize repeated slashes in URLs. Disable this option to identify broken or malformed URLs.

Hi there,
