Konvart October 2026 Product Updates: Technical, Content, Site
Most SEO work follows a short cycle. You crawl a site, fix what the crawl finds, check whether the fix worked, and monitor your rankings.
Konvart has made several updates to that cycle. You can now compare technical audit results between runs, control how your site is crawled, get ranking data faster, and work with content across more languages and regional variants.
We’ve also improved website connections through the Optimizer and fixed an issue that caused some “Something went wrong” errors during heavier tasks.
Here’s what changed and how you can use the updates in your SEO work.
Technical Site Audit Now Compares Runs and Lets You Control the Crawl
A technical SEO audit checks whether search engines can crawl and index your pages. Many of its findings are small details repeated across a site, such as missing meta descriptions, invalid HTML elements, or problems with canonical tags.
The 2025 Web Almanac found that 67.2% of mobile pages had a meta description, leaving about a third without one.
Invalid elements appeared in the head of 10.3% of mobile pages. The Web Almanac also notes that when an invalid element appears before tags such as canonicals and robots directives, those tags can stop working.
Finding problems like these is the first job of an audit. Knowing whether your fixes worked is the second.
Recommended Fixes and Run-to-Run Comparison
Each Konvart site audit now includes a recommended fix for every issue and a full log of the URLs checked. The log shows which pages the crawl covered, so you can see what was included in the audit.
Konvart also compares the latest results with your previous run.
Fix an issue, deploy the changes, and run the audit again. You can then see how the issue counts have changed.
This makes it easier to check the outcome of technical SEO work. Instead of relying on a record of what you changed, you can compare the audit results before and after deployment.
The recommended fixes also shorten the step between finding a problem and deciding what to do about it.
Stop a Crawl and Set the Crawl Delay
You can now stop a crawl while it is running and control how Konvartbot checks your site through crawl delay settings.
By default, Konvartbot checks up to 30 URLs per minute. You can configure the limit to go as high as 5,000 URLs per minute.
Within your configured limit, Konvartbot adjusts the delay between requests based on how your server responds. If your server struggles, it backs off and waits before continuing. It also respects the crawl-delay directive in your robots.txt file.
Crawl control matters because every crawler makes requests to your server. If several crawlers are checking a large site at the same time, the combined activity can put pressure on the server.
The Web Almanac identifies SEO tool crawlers among the user agents that site owners commonly name in robots.txt, reflecting the amount of crawling these tools can generate.
Google’s crawler follows a similar principle when deciding how frequently to crawl a site. According to Google’s explanation of crawl budget, Googlebot adjusts its crawl rate based on factors such as server responsiveness and errors.
Google also explains that it does not process the non-standard crawl-delay rule. That means the directive is useful only for crawlers that choose to respect it, as Konvartbot does.
Server health can also affect how search engines access your site. The Web Almanac notes that a server error when fetching robots.txt can cause search engines to treat the site as blocked until a later fetch succeeds or a cached copy can be used.
If you’re auditing a large site or one with limited server capacity, these controls give you more say over how the crawl runs.
You can use Konvart’s Page and Site Audit tool to identify technical issues and check whether your fixes have worked.
Konvart Now Supports 8 Languages and 48 Regional Variants
A language can vary significantly by country. Spanish for Mexico uses computadora, while Spanish for Spain commonly uses ordenador. American and British English differ in spellings such as optimize and optimise.
A content brief or term list built for one market may miss the vocabulary used by another. The same applies when analysing the pages that already rank for a query.
In a 2020 survey of 8,709 online consumers across 29 countries, CSA Research found that 76% preferred to buy products with information in their own language. In the same survey, 40% said they would never buy from websites in other languages.
The research focused on consumer purchasing behaviour, so it is best understood as a signal of the importance of language in B2C markets.
Konvart has expanded its language support across its content features, including the Content Editor, content brief generator and Konvart AI Writer. The platform supports 48 regional variants across five languages, plus general versions of German, Italian and Ukrainian.
Supported Languages and Regional Variants
| Language | Regional variants |
| English (14) | United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, India, Singapore, Philippines and Jamaica |
| Spanish (16) | Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Uruguay, Bolivia, Paraguay, Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Panama |
| French (14) | France, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, Cameroon, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Burkina Faso, Madagascar, Mali and Luxembourg |
| Portuguese (2) | Portugal and Brazil |
| Dutch (2) | Netherlands and Belgium |
| German, Italian and Ukrainian | General versions without separate regional variants |
The regional versions help you work with the vocabulary used in the market you’re targeting, rather than treating every version of a language as interchangeable.
Where Language Support Applies
In SEO, SERP analysis means studying the pages that already rank for a query. Natural language processing (NLP) analysis helps identify the terms and topics those pages cover.
Konvart now supports SERP analysis and NLP across the supported languages and regional variants. Language support also applies to term review, content scoring, content briefs, the Content Editor and Konvart AI Writer.
There is one important limitation with the custom AI Writer. SERP analysis and NLP can work in the additional languages, but the custom writer itself still generates content in English for the United States, United Kingdom and Canada.
This means you can use the additional languages for research and analysis in the custom AI Writer workflow, but you should not assume it can write in every supported language.
Rank Tracker Returns First Positions Faster
Rank tracking records the positions your pages hold in search results for the keywords you monitor. Those positions help you decide which keywords need attention, but getting the data quickly matters too.
Search results are also changing. In a Pew Research Center study, researchers studied the browsing activity of 900 US adults in March 2025, covering 68,879 Google searches.
An AI summary appeared in 18% of those searches. When a summary appeared, users clicked a traditional result link in 8% of visits, compared with 15% when no summary appeared. They clicked a link within the summary itself in 1% of visits.
Users also ended their browsing session after 26% of pages with an AI summary, compared with 16% of pages without one.
These findings are a reminder that rankings are only part of the picture. You still need to monitor where your pages appear and decide which opportunities deserve attention.
When you add keywords to Konvart’s Rank Tracker, the first position readings now arrive within a few seconds to about a minute.
The wait previously ran up to 15 minutes.
If a ranking check fails, Konvart updates the keyword within six hours.
You can therefore get an initial reading sooner and move on to deciding what to do with the data, rather than waiting through a long tracking cycle.
Connect Your Website to Konvart’s Optimizer
SEO work doesn’t end when you identify an issue or prepare an improved page. You still need to make the changes on your website.
Website connections bring more of that work into the Konvart project you’re already using. You can connect your website to the Optimizer and use the connection to implement supported SEO changes directly on your site.
With a connected website, you can:
- Save new content as a draft. Prepare content in the Optimizer and save it to your website for review before publishing.
- Update existing content. Make supported optimisation changes to pages that already exist on your site.
- Apply technical SEO fixes. Address supported issues such as meta title problems, missing image alt text and schema markup errors. You can also add new schema markup where needed.
The aim is to reduce the manual work between identifying an SEO opportunity and implementing the change. Rather than preparing a recommendation in one tool and making every change separately on your website, you can complete more of the workflow through the Optimizer.
Supported Website Connections
You can connect WordPress through the Konvart plugin.
For Shopify, Webflow and Wix, you can connect your website by authorising access to your account through the integrations area of your Konvart dashboard.
Website connections are currently used through the Konvart Optimizer. We plan to extend them to other Konvart features in future updates.
If you want to move from identifying SEO opportunities to implementing them, you can open Konvart’s Optimizer and connect your website.
Fewer Timeouts and “Something Went Wrong” Errors
A long wait is frustrating. Getting an error after waiting for a result is worse, particularly when the work has already finished.
Usability guidance from the Nielsen Norman Group explains that delays of around 10 seconds can make it harder for users to maintain their attention on a task.
We found that some of Konvart’s heavier jobs were affected by a timeout in the app. In these cases, the app stopped waiting after 10 seconds, even though the backend could finish delivering the result within 30 seconds.
You could therefore see a “Something went wrong” message for work that had already completed.
We’ve fixed this issue by allowing the app to wait longer for heavier jobs. You should now see far fewer of these errors when checking data or running resource-intensive tasks.
The change reduces the likelihood of having to repeat work because the app stopped waiting before the result arrived.
Put the Updates to Work in Your Project
Each update addresses a different part of the SEO workflow.
If you have technical fixes waiting, run a new site audit and compare it with your previous run. The changes in issue counts will help you check whether the fixes worked.
If you create content for several countries, select the relevant language and regional variant when preparing your content. That way, your research and optimisation can reflect the market you’re targeting.
If you’re monitoring new keywords, check their initial rankings sooner and use the results to decide which ones need attention.
And if you want to move from recommendations to implementation, connect your website through the Optimizer and use the supported actions available for your platform.
The aim is straightforward: spend less time waiting for results, repeating checks or moving between tools, and more time making decisions that improve your site.
