How often should I run the audit?
The audit is designed to be run on demand. You should run the “Scan Homepage” or “Rescan All Visible Posts” feature whenever you publish significant new content or after a major site update to ensure all pages are optimized. Individual reports are cached until you rescan or edit the post.
Does this plugin affect my website’s speed for visitors?
No. AuditWave SEO runs exclusively within the WordPress administrative environment. It only performs checks when you manually click the scan buttons and does not add any overhead or code to your public-facing website.
How do I download PDF reports?
Click the “Download PDF Report” button on any scan result. A clean, print-ready page will open in a new window. In your browser’s print dialog, select “Save as PDF” as the destination. This works in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari — no additional software needed.
What does the homepage scan check?
The homepage scan analyzes 15 different aspects of your site’s front page, including technical SEO (HTTPS, robots.txt), title and meta description length, heading structure, image ALT text, link analysis, social sharing tags (Open Graph, Twitter Cards), security (mixed content, security headers), performance indicators, mobile-friendliness, Schema.org structured data, canonical URLs, and more.
Can I scan custom post types?
Yes! Developers can add custom post types using the awseo_supported_post_types filter. Example:
add_filter( ‘awseo_supported_post_types’, function( $types ) { $types[] = ‘product’; return $types; } );
