SearchWrench SEO for Webflow
SearchWrench checks the SEO settings of your Webflow pages, explains every issue in plain English, and on the Autopilot plan writes the titles and meta descriptions you approve into your Webflow page settings.
Install
- Install from the Webflow Marketplace, or go to searchwrench.com/webflow/install.
- Webflow shows what the app can read and change. Pick the site (or sites) to share and click Authorize App.
- You land on the SearchWrench Webflow dashboard. Your sites are listed from your Webflow authorization; you never type a web address. If you shared more than one site, choose it from the Site menu.
- A SearchWrench account is created for the email on your Webflow account; there is no separate password. Nothing on your site is changed at install.
- If you click Cancel instead, nothing is created.
Permissions and what each one is used for
| Webflow permission | Used for |
|---|---|
| Authorized user (read) | Your email, to create or find your SearchWrench account. |
| Sites (read) | The list of sites you authorized and their webflow.io and custom domains, for the site menu. |
| Sites (write) | Publishing, only when you tick Publish my site after applying (or when undoing with publish). |
| Pages (read) | Each static page's name, path, SEO title, meta description and Open Graph fields, and the page's text content (to suggest descriptions). |
| Pages (write) | Saving the SEO title, meta description and matching Open Graph title and description you approved. |
How the SEO check works (data access)
| Check | Data source |
|---|---|
| SEO title missing, too short, too long, or the same as another page | Webflow Data API: GET /v2/sites/{site_id}/pages |
| Meta description missing, too short or too long | Same endpoint |
| Social share (Open Graph) title missing | Same endpoint |
| Suggested description text | Webflow Data API: GET /v2/pages/{page_id}/dom |
- The initial check, Re-check now and every later check use only these Webflow API calls. SearchWrench does not fetch your published Webflow pages, and sends no URL or page content to any other service (no PageSpeed, ranking or backlink services for Webflow sites).
- Scheduled jobs do not check, edit or publish Webflow sites. Everything happens when you open the dashboard and click.
- Stored: your Webflow access token (encrypted), the selected site and Autopilot setting, and the change history (previous and new values of each field you changed). Page content read for suggestions is used once and not stored.
Approving, publishing, pausing and undoing
- Suggest fixes shows a proposed SEO title and meta description for each page with an issue. You can edit any suggestion.
- Only the fixes you tick are written, and only after you click Apply selected and confirm. Each change affects one page's SEO title, meta description, Open Graph title and Open Graph description.
- Publishing is a separate choice: tick Publish my site after applying, or leave it unticked and publish yourself from the Designer. Webflow publishing makes all saved Designer changes live, not only ours.
- Change history lists every change with the previous values. Undo writes the previous values back (publishing again only if you choose).
- Pause Autopilot blocks all changes until you resume. Authorizing the app on its own never approves a change.
- SearchWrench does not change your design, content, CMS items or code.
Plans and billing
- Free: the SEO check, the issue list and suggested fixes.
- Autopilot: $39.99 USD per month, billed monthly by SearchWrench through Stripe, no contract. Includes applying fixes to all static pages of the selected site, change history and undo. Start it from the dashboard or here.
- Cancel: on the Webflow dashboard click Manage or cancel billing (Stripe billing page). The plan ends at the end of the current billing period. If anything goes wrong, email us and we cancel it the same day.
Disconnect and remove access
- Click Disconnect Webflow on the dashboard: SearchWrench deletes your Webflow access token, site setting and change history immediately.
- Or revoke access in Webflow (Apps & Integrations). The next time SearchWrench tries to use the token it is rejected and we delete the same data.
- Changes already saved stay in your page settings until you edit them.
- To delete your whole SearchWrench account, use the support contact on our Marketplace listing. See our privacy policy.
