Titles & Meta descriptions
-
How can I see the titles and meta descriptions of my competitors?

Hi Arie,
There are a few ways you can do this, firstly the titles are displayed for each page in the tabs in your browser.
Alternatively SEOmoz tool bar has a "Page Elements" section which gives you lots of page information including the title and meta description : http://www.seomoz.org/seo-toolbar
Depending on your browser you can also right click anywhere on the page and click "View Source". Then look in the section for the meta data.
Hope this helps.

I use a IBP Software with a Optimization tool, you can write the urls of your competitors and run the tool and after two minutes you have a report with many informations including meta title and meta description

Hi Arie,
To manually check:
Go to your browser and check the page source. This can usually be fond under View > Developer> Page source. You will then need to sift thru the code to find the titles and descriptions.
Or:
There are tools you can add to your browser which will pull the data for you. If you install the SEOmoz toolbar it will give you all the Meta data for whichever page you are on.
Hope this helps.

This is one of the easiest things you can check. The other posts gave some great examples of how - it's just a matter of if you want to check one page at a time or a collection all at once.

If you want to see ALL the page titles and meta descriptions on a competitors website Screaming Frogs SEO Spider is awesome. It can downloaded free here http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/ Note for large sites you may need the paid version.
