Tips for Using Clay Integrations to Identify Meta-Description Issues | Clay
Hey George Darie, thought I'll jump in a help.
I'm not an expert on SEO or websites, but I saw that in Clay, there is a 'Find Sitemap URL' feature. Does that give you something to work with?
Hey — here’s how you can identify pages with missing or incomplete meta descriptions and tags using free tools:
Free API Options
1. Google Search Console API
• Returns data on pages with missing or duplicate meta descriptions
• Requires site verification
• Use the Search Analytics API for page-level insights
2. Screaming Frog (Free tier)
• Crawls up to 500 URLs
• Flags missing, duplicate, or short meta descriptions
• Export results to CSV for review
4. Free SEO APIs
• Serpstack: 1000 requests/month
• DataForSEO: Free trial credits
• SEMrush API: Limited free tier
Clay Workflow Alternative
If you’re using Clay, you can automate this entirely:
1. Start with a list of URLs in your table
2. Use Claygent to extract metadata:
“Extract the meta description and title tag from this URL: /url”
3. Add a formula column to flag missing or short descriptions:
If /meta description is empty or shorter than 120 characters, return “Needs review”
4. Filter your table to review flagged pages
Let me know if you want help setting this up directly in Clay.
