What is the best tool to view your page as Googlebot?
-
Our site was done with asp.net and a lot of scripting. I want to see what Google can see and what it can't. What is the best tool that duplicates Googlebot? I have found several but they seem old or inaccurate.

I just used it today. The simple crawl is free. Advanced is paid.

I think it's free again? I use it today...

Used to be free, now it's 9,99$ per year
certainly not unreasonable, but some sort of demo would be nice so one knows what to expect. Do you have another recommendation? -
Hi Niners52,
Personally, I like to use webconfs search engine spider tools (http://www.webconfs.com/search-engine-spider-simulator.php) but there are loads out there that you can use and it is your own preference really.
Also, I use ScreamingFrog to do similar tasks.
Matt.

I'm a fan of http://www.seo-browser.com/ - use their simple search and it's totally free.
