Yesterday, I added a new feature on SEO Warp: Quick Mode.

Quick Mode is the same as Full Mode in virtually every way; it gathers information just like Full Mode. The only real difference between the two is that Quick Mode does not perform any of the duplicate content detection functions between documents or the interest checks.

Checking for duplicate content over several pages can add several minutes to the scan. This is because the process is very meticulous and checks every word between documents; every document multiplies the time needed to execute and each word stretches the execution time further.

The Interest Check was left out, too, because it partially depends on the Duplicate Content check in order to compile an accurate report. Most of the other tests conducted by the Interest Check don’t take any real noticeable time or processing power to complete otherwise.

So if you have several minutes to scan your pages, go ahead and use the Full Mode. But if you don’t care about seeing the duplicate or interesting content information, use the Quick Mode.
