What is a technical website audit?

A technical website audit is a detailed health check of your website. It finds the issues that stop search engines from crawling, understanding and ranking your pages, and the problems that frustrate visitors.

You don't just get a list of errors from a tool. You get a clear action plan.

01 · PRIORITISED

A ranked action list

Every issue is ranked by impact and effort, so you fix what matters most first.

02 · PLAIN ENGLISH

Explained without jargon

Each finding explains why it matters and how to fix it, whether you do it yourself or pass it to your developer.

03 · WALKTHROUGH

We take you through it

We walk you through the findings, face to face at our Norwest office or online, and answer your questions.

What our website audit checks

Eight areas that decide how well your site ranks, loads and converts.

⌕

Crawling & indexing

Robots.txt, XML sitemaps, canonical tags, accidental noindex tags, crawl errors and Search Console indexing reports.

⚡

Speed & Core Web Vitals

LCP, INP and CLS on mobile and desktop, image weight, caching, render-blocking scripts and server response times.

▯

Mobile & usability

Mobile-first rendering, tap targets, layout shifts, and forms and navigation that work on every device.

✎

On-page SEO & content

Titles, meta descriptions, headings, duplicate or thin content, keyword targeting and pages competing for the same keywords.

⇄

Links & site structure

Broken links, redirect chains, orphan pages, internal linking, anchor text and your backlink profile.

{ }

Structured data (schema)

Schema validation for LocalBusiness, Service, FAQ and Product markup, plus rich result eligibility and consistent business details.

✦

AI search readiness

Whether AI crawlers can access your content (robots.txt and llms.txt), answer-first content, and how you appear in AI Overviews and ChatGPT.

⚿

Security & accessibility

HTTPS, mixed content, outdated plugins or CMS versions, and accessibility basics like alt text, contrast and labels.

How our website audit works

Real data, a manual review and a clear plan at the end.

01

Discovery

We learn your goals and, ideally, get read access to Google Search Console and Google Analytics 4.

02

Crawl & test

A full site crawl, Core Web Vitals field data, mobile testing and a manual review of key pages and templates.

03

Analyse & prioritise

We separate real problems from tool noise and rank every fix by its impact on rankings, traffic and leads.

04

Report & fix

You get the report and a walkthrough. We can implement the fixes for you or brief your developer.

When should you get a website audit?

Three moments when an audit pays for itself.

01

Traffic or rankings dropped

After a Google core update or an unexplained drop, an audit pinpoints the cause so you can recover.

02

Before or after a redesign

Redesigns and migrations are where rankings get lost. We check redirects, URLs and tracking so nothing breaks.

03

Before investing in SEO or Ads

Fix the foundations first so every dollar spent on SEO or Google Ads works harder.

Website audit FAQs

Straight answers to the questions we hear most.

What is a technical SEO audit?

A technical SEO audit is a detailed health check of your website. It reviews how search engines crawl, index and render your pages, along with site speed, mobile usability, on-page SEO, links and structured data, and gives you a prioritised list of fixes.

How long does a website audit take?

Most audits for small and medium business websites take one to two weeks, depending on the size of the site and the depth of analysis. Large eCommerce sites take longer.

What do I need to provide?

Ideally, read access to Google Search Console and Google Analytics 4, so we can use real performance data. We can still audit your site without them, but the findings will be less complete.

Will you fix the issues you find?

Yes, if you'd like us to. We can implement the fixes ourselves, especially on WordPress websites, or hand a clear brief to your developer.

How often should I audit my website?

A full audit once a year is a good baseline, plus a check after any redesign, migration or major plugin or theme change, or a significant drop in traffic.

What are Core Web Vitals?

Core Web Vitals are Google's measures of real-world page experience: Largest Contentful Paint (loading speed), Interaction to Next Paint (responsiveness) and Cumulative Layout Shift (visual stability). They're a ranking signal, and they directly affect how many visitors stay on your site.

Does the audit check how my site appears in AI search?

Yes. We check whether AI crawlers can access your content, whether your pages are structured to be quoted, and how your business currently appears in Google AI Overviews and assistants like ChatGPT and Gemini.
