The SEO package checks SEO and accessibility

SEO audits come with the SEO package, not with Free or Premium. The package is a monthly subscription and always belongs to a licence with WebDonkey Premium. If you buy it together with Premium, or you have exactly one licence it fits, we assign it automatically. Otherwise you assign it in your customer account under “My WebDonkey licences” to the licence it should belong to. Until then, your account and the app show a notice. After that your usual key unlocks SEO; you do not need a new one. You can change the assignment, at most three times in 30 days. If the Premium licence ends and the SEO package runs longer, it becomes a licence of its own with a new key: you assign it to a running Premium licence or cancel it. Until then it unlocks nothing but is still charged; nothing is refunded. After a withdrawal, full refund, chargeback or termination for good cause it ends as well. If you as a consumer withdraw from the contract for the Premium licence, you are no longer bound by the SEO package either and get back what you paid for it, even if you bought it in a different order.

Every crawled page against WCAG 2.2, level AA by default, A or AAA if you prefer. The check uses axe-core at desktop and mobile width plus checks of our own for keyboard and focus, reflow at 320 px, 200 % zoom, text spacing, contrast on images, alt texts, link texts and autoplay. You start SEO, accessibility or both; with both, every page is crawled only once. Findings come with marked screenshots, simulations and the comparison with the previous run. The check is automatic and does not replace a full audit under BITV 2.0 / EN 301 549.

An automatic check cannot promise that, and WebDonkey does not either. It finds many typical errors and shows where they are. Some things only a person can judge, such as whether an alt text describes the image well or whether the page can be used with a screen reader. For every WCAG criterion the report shows “Passed”, “Failed”, “Needs review”, “Check by hand” or “Not applicable” and never says “compliant”. Result of an automatic check. It does not replace a full audit under BITV 2.0 / EN 301 549.

On your Mac, in your installed Chrome, Edge, Brave or Chromium. For this WebDonkey installs a check module with axe-core once, in fixed versions. It runs on Node.js, which you install in WebDonkey under “Services”. Chrome itself is not downloaded, and there is no cloud service in between. In the inspector you check a single address, a local .test site from WebDonkey included, before it goes live. Full audits run against .test sites as well. Accessibility is part of the SEO package at no extra cost. Like every automatic check it does not replace a full audit under BITV 2.0 / EN 301 549.

Yes. In the settings under “Reports” you enter your company name, logo (PNG, JPEG or SVG up to 1 MB) and a contact line once. When exporting you choose “With your own sender” and enter your client under “Report for”; WebDonkey remembers the name per audit. Logo and name then appear on the cover and in the footer, and the report keeps the WebDonkey style. You can switch off the small “Made with WebDonkey” note in the footer. A PDF holds SEO, accessibility or both; the accessibility chapter always states that it is an automatic check that does not replace a full audit under BITV 2.0 / EN 301 549. Your own sender is unlocked by the SEO package or the maintenance package.
