Structured data - Schema is Good for SEO !
So ...
Check if structured data aka schema, microdata is being used on any given web page with webmaster tools <a>www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets</a>If you are trying to improve the page you can also use the Structured Data Markup Helper - html conversion tool to have Google auto-add schema to the page after you choose the relevant category:
<a>https://www.google.com/webmasters/markup-helper/</a>This is of course just one more method to use in addition to others mentioned.

Hi Keri,
I am asking about "site/theme/template is SEO friendly?" Is there any tool for that?
-
here are some great instructions on how to perform a site audit rather it be large or small.
Using the campaign tool here on Moz essentially if you pay attention to everything it does it will deliver a very good site audit in many ways.

I know Raven tools have a UX site audit part of their offering however I cannot tell you if it is spot on or not.

Again I recommend using screaming frog hopefully this is more beneficial to you.

I apologize I literally thought he was speaking about the way a website looks or its UX When you say website design did you mean more than the actual way the site looks? I gave him the links to a bunch of tools that used appropriately can teach someone quite a bit about at the usability of a website. I did not think that the question was regarding a site audit.
Varun I apologize and misunderstood your question. If you want more information on how to audit your site definitely follow the links that Keri has already giving you.
obviously you want to see if your site is experiencing issues that would be threatening to your websites user experience however I would start with making sure that it crawls well running a campaign here in Moz
another quick tool that you can use that I'm happy to see back is
https://moz.com/researchtools/crawl-test
screaming frog SEO spider is a fantastic tool to diagnose issues with your site architecture. You can download it for free, and it will crawl up to 500 pages after that you have to pay 100 British pounds which currently is about close to $160 USD as of this post.
that will allow you to have all the features that the tool advertises. Using that with the http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/screaming-frog-guide
is a powerful combination.
I thought you literally meant design and UX Only.
All the best,
Thomas

When I want a fast general overview of a website SEO Potential, I check using 2 Moz Tools, On-Page Grader and Open Site explorer... plus a get a traffic estimate from some spy tool like similarweb.com However a full audit is need to know deeper about a website.

Are you asking about an existing site that's already in use? What could help then is doing a site audit. We have two Moz posts that have a lot of information about how to do an audit and uncover potential SEO flaws.
http://moz.com/blog/how-to-perform-the-worlds-greatest-seo-audit
http://moz.com/blog/how-to-do-a-site-audit
Or are you asking if a potential site/theme/template is SEO friendly?

Thomas,
I don't think all of these meet what the OP is asking for. Most of these sites are for prototyping or user testing, and not for examining an existing site for SEO.

SEO strategy for UK / US websites
Hi, We currently have a UK-focused site on www.palmatin.com ; We're now targeting the North American market as well, but the contents of the site need to be different from UK. One option was to create another domain for the NA market but I assume it would be easier to rank with palmatin.com though. What would you suggest to do, if a company is targeting two different countries in the same language? thanks, jaan

Funnel tracking with one page check-out?
Hi Guys, I'm creating a new website with a one page checkout that follows the following steps:
Web Design | | Jerune
1. Check availability
2. Select product
2. Select additional product & Add features
3. Provide personal information
4. Order & Pay I'm researching if it is possible to track all these steps (and even steps within the steps) with Google Analytics in order to analyse checkout abandonment. The problem is only that my one-page checkout has only one URL (I want to keep it that way) and therefore can not be differentiated on URL in the Analytics funnel. To continue to the next step also the same button (in a floating cart) in used to advance. The buttons to select/choose something within one step are all different. Do you guys know how I can set this up and how detailed I can make this? For example, is it also possible to test at which field visitors leave when for example filling in their personal information? Would be great if you can help me out!0 -
Do you know any tool(s) to check if Google can crawl a URL?
Our site is currently blocking search bots that's why I can't use Google Webmaster Tools' URL fetch tool. In Screamingfrog, there are dynamic pages that can't be found if I crawl the homepage. Thanks in advance!

Force SSL. Good or Bad?
My website can be accessed with a number of different URL's and I am trying to consolidate the traffic to one point. Is there any problem, SEO or technical, with forcing all users who come to my site to going to our https domain? I have already set a preferred domain in WebMaster Tools and set rel=canonical for each page. For instance, anyone entering the below sites would be forced to land at https://www.1099pro.com. 1099pro.com www.1099pro.com http://1099pro.com http://www.1099pro.com

Website using javascript to serve up content - SEO Friendly?
I'm checking out a dentist website http://www.sagedentalnj.com/ I was referred by a friend so just taking a little peek at it. When you click on the menu items, the url at the top doesn't change. When you view source, the page titles are all the same. when I do site:http://www.sagedentalnj.com/ none of his pages are indexed by google. What can be done with his site so that google sees his pages? Maybe submit sitemap?

Is there such thing as too much product information in terms of SEO
Hi All, Our website sells products online and is a prestashop system Prestashop comes with a set form you use to fill in products, however to fill it all you end up creating alot of repeated data. What i need to know, is if you have: Product name: Audi A6 Rear Lamp Set Short Description: A Short & Sweet Description Long Description: A Long Boring Description Meta Title: Same as product name Meta Keywords: What more can be said about an A6 Rear Lamp Set??? Meta Description: Same as long and boring description Im stuck in a position of having the ability to add extra information (i.e Meta-Tags) But really ill end up repeating what is already in the products natural listing. In terms of good SEO, is it better to leave Meta Fields empty, or fill them in and be repetitive for product pages? Thanks all, any guidance will be well appreciated <colgroup><col width="57"><col width="36"><col width="323"><col width="328"><col width="56"><col width="26"><col width="55"><col width="23"><col span="2" width="25"><col width="24"><col width="25"><col width="95"><col width="158"><col width="123"><col width="130"><col width="28"><col width="34"><col span="2" width="64"><col width="537"><col width="188"><col width="319"><col width="303"><col width="329"><col width="177"><col width="96"><col width="128"><col width="172"><col width="547"><col width="62"><col width="87"><col width="85"><col width="94"><col width="162"></colgroup>
