Interactive link graph and structural analysis.

Site Architecture Analysis

Site architecture — the way pages link to each other — directly determines how search engines discover, crawl, and prioritize your content. A flat architecture where important pages are only 2-3 clicks from the homepage outperforms a deep, siloed structure where pages are buried 8+ clicks deep. Orphan pages with no internal links may never be indexed. EchoBat builds a complete link graph of your site and analyzes it for structural issues.

How It Works

EchoBat's ArchMap engine records every internal link during the crawl and constructs a directed graph. It computes PageRank, click depth, inbound/outbound counts, and runs the Louvain community detection algorithm to identify topical clusters. The interactive visualization renders the graph using force-directed layout, color-coded by cluster. The Structure Health and Crawl Health lenses then analyze the graph for structural issues: orphans, dead-ends, depth outliers, soft-404s, and URL hygiene problems.

Proof Returned in the Report

Every Site Architecture Analysis finding is tied to crawl evidence: affected URLs, the source signal, severity, score impact, and the next action exposed in the portal, CLI JSON, and MCP tools.

Sample Evidence Fields

  • Interactive Site Graph: Force-directed link graph visualization showing how every page connects to every other page.
  • Community Detection: Louvain algorithm identifies natural content clusters and topical silos in your link structure.
  • Orphan Page Detection: Pages with zero inbound internal links — invisible to crawlers following links.

Why It Matters

  • See your site's link structure as an interactive graph
  • Find orphan pages invisible to search engines
  • Identify content clusters to strengthen topical authority
  • Detect pages buried too deep for efficient crawling
