SEO Audit

A forensic read of your search presence with a prioritised fix list. The honest starting point for everything else.

An SEO audit is only useful if it ends in decisions. The version I deliver is not a hundred-page PDF of automated crawl output; it is a forensic pass over your technical health, content, authority and competitive position, distilled into a fix list ordered by impact, with the reasoning shown so you can challenge any line of it.

It answers the questions owners actually have. Why did traffic fall after the redesign. Why does the blog get traffic but no enquiries. Why does a worse competitor outrank you. What would moving from position six to position two on your money term actually be worth.

What gets examined

  • Technical: crawlability, indexation, speed, structure, structured data
  • Content: keyword mapping, cannibalisation, gaps against searcher intent
  • Authority: link profile quality, toxicity, competitor citation gap
  • Local and SERP features where they apply to your market
  • Analytics sanity check, because half of all audits find the measurement is wrong too

You receive the prioritised roadmap and a walkthrough call. Execute it with your team, with me, or with someone else entirely; the audit is written to be independent of who does the work.

Straight answers

How long does an audit take?

About two weeks for most sites, longer for large e-commerce. Rushing it produces the generic checklist you could have downloaded for free.

Is the audit just a sales pitch for a retainer?

No, and it is priced to stand alone. Some clients take the roadmap in-house; the audit is written to work that way.

What do you need access to?

Search Console, GA4 and read access to the site. For deeper work, the CMS. Nothing gets changed during an audit.

Wondering what this would look like for your business?

The free audit answers that with your data, not a pitch. One Search Console invite is all it takes.
