What a technical audit uncovers

Rankings stall when the crawler cannot reach your money pages efficiently, or when the index is polluted with duplicates. We isolate the blockers, then hand you an execution plan.

See pricing

Crawlability

Robots rules, internal links, redirects, and status codes that change what gets discovered.

  • Robots.txt and XML sitemap alignment
  • Redirect chains, 404/5xx patterns
  • Orphaned and deep pages

Index quality

We reduce index bloat so Google spends time on pages that convert, not duplicates and parameter noise.

  • Canonicals, pagination, and faceted navigation
  • Duplicate clusters and consolidation paths
  • Thin pages and crawl traps

Rendering and JS

Content that loads late, fragments URLs, or breaks hydration can be invisible to search engines.

  • Server vs client rendering risks
  • Internal links in JS components
  • Content parity checks

Speed and CWV

We identify what is slowing real users down and provide fix direction by template and component.

  • LCP, INP, CLS patterns
  • Image, font, and JS payload issues
  • Quick wins vs structural work

Structured data

We validate schema quality and eligibility signals for rich results and SERP enhancements.

  • Coverage and errors
  • Entity alignment and mark-up hygiene
  • Opportunities by page type

Fix plan that sticks

Clear priorities, acceptance criteria, and a dev-ready handoff so work does not get lost.

  • Impact vs effort prioritisation
  • Ticket-ready guidance and QA notes
  • Readout call with next steps

Our technical audit process

Built for execution. We start with discovery, map the technical constraints, then deliver a fix plan your team can ship confidently.

Ongoing technical SEO

Access and baselines

We collect inputs, confirm what success looks like, and define constraints so recommendations are realistic.

  • Search Console, analytics, and CMS context
  • Top money pages and template inventory
  • Baseline KPIs and known issues

Crawl and index mapping

We map your site structure and how bots traverse it, then isolate crawl waste and indexation blockers.

  • Status code distributions and redirect patterns
  • Sitemaps, robots directives, and orphan detection
  • Parameter traps, faceted nav, pagination behaviour

Rendering and JS

We ensure key content and internal links are available to search engines, even when JS frameworks are involved.

  • Content parity: rendered vs source
  • Internal linking in components and menus
  • Indexable URL hygiene for SPAs

Speed and CWV

We identify what slows down real users, then provide fix direction by template and component.

  • LCP, INP, CLS analysis and patterns
  • Image and font delivery improvements
  • JS payload and third-party script impact

Dupes and canonicals

We clean up duplication and index noise so signals consolidate to pages that convert.

  • Canonical, hreflang, and pagination checks
  • Template-level duplicate clusters and fixes
  • Index bloat and crawl budget remediation

Schema review

We validate structured data coverage and correctness, then outline opportunities for rich results.

  • Error checks and eligibility alignment
  • Entity and page-type recommendations
  • Implementation notes for devs

Prioritise and handoff

You get a prioritised backlog, clear acceptance criteria, and a plan that targets money pages first.

  • Impact vs effort prioritisation
  • Ticket-ready fixes with QA notes
  • Readout call and next-step plan

QA plan

We define verification steps so releases do not introduce regressions and fixes remain stable over time.

  • Pre and post-deploy checks
  • Monitoring recommendations for GSC
  • Rollback cues and risk flags

Audit checklist (high-impact areas)

A quick look at what we validate, what it typically breaks, and why it matters.

Area What we check Common findings Impact
Crawl paths Internal links, depth, orphan pages, crawl traps Money pages buried, filters generating infinite URLs Discovery + rankings
Indexation Canonicals, noindex, duplicates, parameters Index bloat, split signals across duplicates Signal consolidation
Status codes 404/410 patterns, soft 404s, 5xx, chains Redirect loops, broken collections, 5xx spikes Stability
Rendering Rendered HTML parity, lazy-loaded content, link discoverability Content missing for bots, navigation links not crawlable Visibility
Core Web Vitals LCP/INP/CLS by template, heavy scripts, media delivery Large hero images, render-blocking scripts, slow TTFB UX + SEO lift
Structured data Coverage, errors, eligibility, page-type alignment Invalid JSON-LD, missing properties, wrong entity types Rich results

Technical SEO audit FAQ

Answers to the questions we hear most from founders, marketers, and dev teams.

What is the difference between an SEO audit and a technical SEO audit?
A technical audit focuses on crawlability, indexation, rendering, site performance, and duplication issues. A broader SEO audit may also include content, links, and strategy. If you need the full picture, start with SEO audit services.
Will you implement the fixes?
The audit is a one-time project that delivers a fix plan. Implementation can be added on, or handled through ongoing technical SEO.
Do you prioritise revenue pages?
Yes. We prioritise fixes by impact and effort, with money pages, category pages, and lead pages at the top of the queue.
Can you help if we recently lost rankings?
Yes. If you suspect an indexation or technical change caused the drop, a technical audit is a strong first move. You can also review indexing and ranking drop recovery.
Do you analyse log files?
Log file analysis is available as an add-on, and is commonly used for larger sites and crawl budget problems. See log file analysis.
How do you measure success after fixes ship?
We recommend a QA plan plus monitoring in Search Console, plus conversion tracking where relevant. If you want tighter attribution, see SEO conversion tracking and lead attribution.
