Traditional spell checkers leave gaps in the website content publishing process

Writing versus live website checking

Traditional spell checking tools are designed to assist users while they write, typically integrated into word processors or website content management systems (CMS). These tools are useful for catching errors as they occur, but they have several limitations:

• Real-Time Dependency: Most spell checkers require the user to be actively writing or editing text within a specific application. This means they only catch errors at the moment of creation, leaving existing content unchecked unless manually reviewed.
• Limited Scope: Traditional tools are often limited to single documents or specific types of content, such as blog posts or articles. They do not provide a comprehensive overview of an entire website's content.

Spling offers comprehensive website checking on the actual live site that users will see.

Spling revolutionizes spell and grammar checking by allowing users to check entire live websites, offering several distinct advantages:

• Full-Site Scans: Spling can scan your entire website, identifying errors across all pages, not just in isolated documents. This ensures that no part of your site is overlooked, providing a thorough quality check.
• Ease of Use: Instead of manually opening and editing each page, users simply enter their website URL, and Spling handles the rest. This automation saves time and effort, especially for large websites with extensive content.
• Consistency: By checking live websites, Spling ensures that all content, including older pages that might not have been reviewed recently, is up to date and error-free. This is crucial for maintaining a professional image and providing a seamless user experience.

Spling enables businesses to thoroughly check their entire website for errors, providing a level of accuracy and efficiency that covers gaps left by traditional spell checkers.
