HubSpot's Website Grader gives you a score. RankBuddy gives you the score, the plain-English reason behind every issue, and the exact code to fix it - free.
HubSpot's Website Grader is a great quick check, but it's built to do one thing: hand you a number and an email capture into HubSpot's CRM. RankBuddy is built to help you actually raise that number - with explanations and copy-paste fixes for every issue it finds.
It's fast, free, well-known, and gives you a clean score across performance, SEO, mobile, and security. If all you want is a quick gut-check number - and you don't mind a sales follow-up from HubSpot - it does the job.
RankBuddy checks 40+ signals (including AI readiness, which Website Grader does not), explains each one for a non-technical owner, and writes the actual fix - the real meta description, schema block, or alt text - ready to paste. It also crawls your whole site, not just the homepage, and lets you compare against a competitor.
If you're already living inside HubSpot's CRM and marketing suite, or you want an all-in-one platform and the audit is a minor feature, stick with HubSpot. RankBuddy is the better pick when the audit itself is the point and you want fixes, not just a grade.
