Crawlux vs Sitebulb for crypto SEO.

No. Sitebulb is a desktop technical SEO crawler with 300+ checks and best-in-class data visualizations. Crawlux is a hosted crypto audit tool. They cover different ground. Sitebulb does not validate FinancialProduct schema or test AEO citations on crypto category prompts. Crawlux does not crawl 100K+ URL sites with custom XPath extraction. The right setup for most crypto teams is using both: Sitebulb for the deep technical crawl, Crawlux for the crypto-tuned audit layer.

Sitebulb covers technical SEO at depth: crawl errors, broken links, redirect chains, indexation, internal link structure. It does not cover crypto-specific signals: FinancialProduct or CryptoExchange schema validation, GoPlus smart contract security, Web3 Backlink Toxicity Rubric, AEO citation testing on category prompts, audit firm citation tracking. Sitebulb scores schema at the Schema.org spec level, which is correct generically but misses whether your protocol page should be FinancialProduct vs generic Product.

Sitebulb has three tiers: Lite at $165/year (10K URL limit), Pro at $365/year (unlimited URLs) and Cloud at $55/month. Sitebulb is paid per workstation; Cloud is per user. Crawlux is one-time per domain: Free $0, Pro $25, Team $49 (3 seats included). For a single user auditing one site quarterly, Sitebulb Lite at $165/year vs Crawlux Pro at $100/year (4 audits) overlap on cost but cover different scope. Most crypto teams running both find the combined cost (~$265/year) reasonable for the coverage.

Yes, this is the most common setup. Sitebulb Lite ($165/year) for the deep technical crawl on your own site every couple of months. Crawlux Pro ($25 per audit) for the crypto-specific audit layer. Sitebulb visualizations make great client deliverables for agencies; Crawlux PDF reports white-label to your brand. The two tools do not overlap meaningfully on what they audit.

Yes, Crawlux uses Puppeteer to render pages with full JavaScript execution, the same way Sitebulb does. The difference is depth: Sitebulb crawls every URL on your site with full render (limited only by tier URL caps). Crawlux samples representative pages per template and runs renders on those, which is sufficient for the audit checks but does not cover every URL. For full-site render coverage on 10K+ URL sites, Sitebulb is the better tool.

Sitebulb Cloud launched recently at $55/month per user. It removes the desktop dependency and adds team collaboration. The pricing is closer to Crawlux Team tier ($49 one-time) on per-month math, but the use case is different. Cloud is for ongoing technical crawls; Crawlux is for periodic crypto audits. Some teams use both: Cloud for monthly technical monitoring, Crawlux for quarterly crypto audit deliverables.

Both are desktop technical SEO crawlers. Sitebulb is more visual, more beginner-friendly, hint-driven. Screaming Frog is more raw-data oriented, more configurable, more powerful for large sites and custom extraction. Pricing is comparable: Sitebulb Lite $165/year vs Screaming Frog $259/year (free up to 500 URLs). The Crawlux vs Screaming Frog comparison is in progress; the same logic applies: pair Crawlux with whichever technical crawler matches your style.

Yes, for the technical layer. Sitebulb catches crypto-relevant technical issues that matter for AEO: render-blocking resources on token info pages, lazy-loaded above-fold images causing CLS spikes, missing canonical on multi-chain docs subdomains. The crypto-specific layer (schema correctness, audit firm citations, AEO category prompts) is where Sitebulb stops and Crawlux picks up.
