SEO Audit Service
The most vital part of an SEO project is the planning! An audit will help you plan your SEO strategy.
What is an SEO Audit?
An SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) audit is the process of analysing multiple areas of your website that most impact organic performance.
The purpose is to provide a clear look at what a website is missing at its core and to create a detailed implementation plan to make technical changes in order of what impacts organic search the most.
Why do you need an SEO Audit?
Technical SEO is the foundation of a website; without it, everything else added to the site – whether that be content, links, products – will have far less of an impact. It is crucial to stay on top of on and off-site issues on a regular basis as technical issues will always crop up.
Not only that, but it is important to start your online marketing future on the right foot, and through an expert technical audit, your further marketing efforts will actually have a fighting chance.
How does an SEO Audit work?
An SEO audit is broken up into three main parts:
On-site SEO: Actions taken on your website to impact your rankings within search engine results pages – e.g. Content Changes and Updates.
Off-site SEO: Actions taken outside of your website to impact your rankings within search engine results pages – e.g. Link Building.
Technical SEO: Optimising your website and server in order to help search engine spiders crawl and index your site easier and more effectively – e.g Structured Data.
We combine parts of all three of these together to provide a clear plan of action for your website’s future!

Why invest in an SEO audit?
Investing in an SEO audit allows you to build a solid foundation for your website, ensuring that the site runs well for users, functions correctly and is well-optimised for Google to get you higher up in the results.
Without technical SEO, your website is more likely to under-perform and have underlying issues, making the experience for your users a negative one – this will affect leads and conversions in the long run.
