Technical SEO Audits
Your website could be perfect for your customers, but if Google and AI search engines can’t crawl it properly, you’re virtually invisible.
Our technical SEO audit identifies exactly what’s stopping your website from ranking.
We check 14 key areas using professional tools and an experienced eye, then deliver a plain English report with prioritised recommendations.
From £495, you get a complete health check of your website’s technical performance.
We understand what small business websites need and we explain everything in clear language you can actually use.
Why Your Website Needs a Technical SEO Audit
Google processes billions of searches every day, but it won’t show your website if technical problems prevent it from properly accessing and reading your pages.
Broken links, slow page speeds, mobile usability issues, duplicate content, and sitemap errors all stop Google from finding and ranking your content.
Small businesses particularly need technical audits because marketing budgets are tight. Spending money on content creation or paid advertising whilst technical problems block your visibility wastes resources.
An audit shows you exactly where problems exist so you fix the right things first.
These problems are often invisible when you browse your own website. Your pages load fine, everything looks good, but behind the scenes Google sees errors.
Every technical issue costs you potential customers who can’t find you in search results.
Regular audits can catch problems before they become serious. Google updates its algorithm constantly. What worked six months ago might need adjustment today.
Site health checks keep your website aligned with current requirements.
Our SEO Audit Process
We follow a structured 14-step process that examines every aspect of your website’s technical health. This isn’t simply an automated report from free tools.
We use professional SEO software combined with manual analysis to find problems automated scanners miss.
Crawlability & Indexing Review
We check if Google can access and index all your important pages. This includes analysing your robots.txt file, XML sitemap submission, noindex tags, canonical tags, and URL structure.
We verify that pages you want indexed are indexed, and pages you don’t want indexed are properly blocked.
We use Google Search Console to see exactly how Google views your website. This reveals indexing errors, crawl problems, and pages Google considers duplicate content.
Site Speed & Mobile Performance
Page speed directly affects rankings and user experience. We test your website using PageSpeed Insights, GTmetrix, and our own monitoring tools to measure load times, Core Web Vitals scores (LCP, INP, CLS), and identify what’s slowing your site down.
Mobile-friendliness is essential because Google uses mobile-first indexing. We check responsive design, font readability, and how your website performs on actual mobile devices.
Content & On-Page Analysis
We examine your page titles, meta descriptions, heading structure, image alt text, internal linking, and content quality.
We identify duplicate content, thin pages, missing elements, and opportunities to improve relevance for your target keywords.
We use Screaming Frog and Ahrefs to crawl your entire website and collect data on every page. This finds issues even large websites struggle to identify manually.
What We Check During Your Audit
Our audit examines everything that affects your website’s ability to rank in search engines:
Broken internal and external links that create poor user experiences and waste crawl budget. Redirect chains and loops that slow down page loading and confuse search engines.
Duplicate content across multiple URLs that dilutes ranking potential. XML sitemap errors preventing Google from discovering your pages. Robots.txt configuration problems accidentally blocking important content.
We analyse site speed metrics including server response time, image optimisation, code minification, and caching. We check Core Web Vitals scores which Google uses as ranking factors.
We verify mobile-friendliness.
Your internal linking structure shows us if important pages get enough authority from other pages on your site. We identify orphaned pages that have no internal links pointing to them. We check if your page titles and meta descriptions are optimised correctly, avoiding duplicates and missing elements.
Schema markup implementation helps Google understand your content better. We check if you’re using structured data correctly and identify opportunities to add it where missing.
What You Get
You receive a detailed written report explaining every issue we find. We write in plain English, not technical jargon.
If we need to use technical terms, we explain what they mean and why they matter.
Issues are ranked by priority.
We tell you what to fix first because it causes the biggest problems, what to fix next as time permits, and what to monitor but isn’t urgent. Each issue includes specific recommendations showing exactly how to resolve it.
Delivery takes 1-2 weeks from when we start your audit. Larger websites with more pages take longer than smaller sites, but we provide realistic timeframes when you book.
What Happens After Your Audit
The audit report is yours to keep and use however you choose. You can implement the recommendations yourself if you have technical skills.
You can give the report to your web developer or IT team to action.
There’s no obligation to use our services for implementation.
We offer implementation services for SEO-related fixes if you’d prefer us to handle the technical work.
This is quoted separately based on what your audit reveals and which fixes you want us to complete.
The audit itself includes your report and recommendations.
It doesn’t include ongoing monitoring, follow-up reviews, or implementation. These are available separately if you need them.
Pricing & Next Steps
Technical SEO audits are priced as one-off projects from £495 to £1,500 depending on your website size and complexity.
Small business websites typically fall within the £495-£795 range.
Larger websites with hundreds of pages cost more because they take longer to audit thoroughly.
We don’t offer free mini-audits or automated reports. Free tools miss important problems and provide generic recommendations.
Our audits combine professional software with human analysis to find issues and provide a helpful diagnosis.
Book a consultation to discuss your website and get an accurate quote. We’ll ask about your site size, current platform, and any specific concerns you have. This helps us provide a realistic price and timeframe.

Frequently Asked Questions
A technical SEO audit typically takes 1-2 weeks to complete from start to finish. The exact timeframe depends on your website size and complexity.
Small business websites with 20-50 pages can be audited more quickly than large sites with hundreds of pages. We’ll provide a specific timeframe when you book your audit based on your website’s characteristics. The audit itself involves running professional crawling software, analysing the data manually, identifying issues, creating recommendations, and compiling everything into a clear report.
We don’t rush this process because thorough analysis finds problems automated scans miss. Once complete, we deliver your report within 1-2 weeks as promised.
A technical SEO audit includes a comprehensive review of crawlability, indexing, site speed, mobile-friendliness, on-page elements, internal linking, and technical errors.
We check if Google can access your pages properly, examine your robots.txt file and XML sitemap, test page load speeds using multiple tools, verify mobile usability, analyse page titles and meta descriptions, review your URL structure, identify broken links and redirects, check for duplicate content, and assess your internal linking structure.
The audit itself is report-only and doesn’t include implementing fixes. You receive a detailed report with clear recommendations for every problem we identify. You can implement the fixes yourself if you have technical skills, give the report to your web developer or IT team, or hire us separately to handle the implementation.
We offer implementation services for SEO-related fixes, quoted separately based on what your audit reveals and which changes you want us to complete. Some small businesses use their existing developer for technical fixes and hire us for the SEO-specific work. There’s no obligation to use our implementation services. The audit report is yours to use however you choose.
Technical SEO audits cost from £495 to £1,500 depending on your website size and complexity.
Small business websites typically fall within the £495-£795 range. Larger websites with hundreds of pages, complex structures, or multiple subdomains cost more because they require more time to audit thoroughly. The price reflects the professional tools we use and the manual analysis involved in reviewing your entire website.
We don’t offer free automated audits because they miss important problems and provide generic recommendations that don’t address your specific issues. Book a consultation to discuss your website and get an accurate quote. We’ll provide a specific price once we understand your site size and requirements.
You can run free automated tools like Google Search Console, PageSpeed Insights, or basic website scanners, but these only catch surface-level issues.
Professional audits combine multiple paid tools with manual analysis from experienced SEO specialists who understand what different errors mean and how they impact rankings. Free tools might identify 404 errors but won’t explain which ones matter most or how they affect your crawl budget. They report duplicate content without showing why it’s happening or how to fix it properly.
Professional audits provide context, prioritisation, and specific recommendations you can actually implement.
A technical SEO audit or health check examines your website’s infrastructure, checking if search engines can crawl and index your pages properly. It focuses on site speed, mobile-friendliness, broken links, redirects, XML sitemaps, robots.txt files, URL structure, and other backend technical elements.
A content audit analyses your actual page content, assessing quality, relevance, keyword targeting, content gaps, competitor comparisons, and opportunities for new content.
Technical audits ensure Google can access your website. Content audits ensure what Google finds is valuable and optimised. Both are important but address different aspects of SEO. Many businesses need both types of audits at different times. Our technical SEO audit includes basic on-page content analysis (page titles, meta descriptions, headings) but focuses primarily on technical infrastructure.
Just having an audit doesn’t directly improve rankings.
It identifies problems preventing your website from ranking as well as it could. Rankings improve after you implement the audit recommendations and Google re-crawls your website. Some fixes show results within weeks (like fixing broken pages or improving site speed), whilst others take longer (like resolving complex duplicate content issues or improving internal linking). The timeframe depends on how quickly you implement changes, how often Google crawls your site, and how competitive your industry is.
Yes, we audit WordPress websites regularly and understand the platform’s specific technical considerations. WordPress sites have unique issues including plugin conflicts, theme coding problems, database optimisation needs, permalink structure settings, and performance challenges from page builders.
We check WordPress-specific elements like permalink configuration, image handling, database table structure, plugin impacts on site speed, theme code quality, and caching setup. Our 10+ years of WordPress experience means we spot common problems like poorly coded plugins, theme bloat, or incorrect permalink structures that general SEO auditors might miss. WordPress powers 43% of websites globally, so most of our audit clients run WordPress.
