Cocon.Se is a tool that shows you your website the way a search engine sees it.
It’s especially good at analyzing the internal structure of websites and tracking down whatever is blocking them.
What makes it stand out is its focus on graphical visualization.
And of course, when you want to check your semantic cocoons (cocons sémantiques), or need something to put on the table with a client, it’s ZE tool for the job!
It’s also where you’ll find the Metamots, licensed from C. Méline.

How the site came about
The service grew out of a hunch and a meeting (not necessarily in that order, mind you)
A meeting between two code nuts, Sylvain and Christian (@LeMoussel).
A hunch: you can see and understand more with a graph than with raw numbers.
That gave birth to a prototype, a presentation of the concept at a VLC, more prototypes, tons of crawled websites (no really, it’s measured in tons)… Then came the final push: Laurent (@LaurentBourelly) kicked our butts until we shipped the product as SaaS, which we have since done 🙂
Today the service has several thousand users.
