SEO Audits: Find Out What’s Holding Your Website Back
If your website isn’t ranking as well as it should, an SEO audit can help uncover why. Scale SEO provides standalone SEO audits for businesses that want a clear assessment of their website without committing to ongoing monthly SEO.
I review the technical health, on-page optimisation and overall search performance of your website to identify problems, missed opportunities and the changes most likely to make a difference.
You’ll receive practical recommendations you can take to your developer, marketing team, or implement internally.
Two levels of audit, built for where you’re at.
For small to medium-sized websites that need a clear assessment of their SEO health. This audit covers the core technical and on-page factors that can affect your website’s ability to be crawled, indexed and ranked by Google.
- Full technical website crawl
- Google indexing and crawlability review
- XML sitemap and robots.txt review
- Redirects, broken links and 404 errors
- Canonical tag review
- Page titles and meta descriptions
- Heading structure
- Duplicate and thin content issues
- Internal linking
- Website speed and Core Web Vitals
- Mobile usability
- Basic keyword and ranking review
- Google Search Console review, where access is available
- Prioritised list of recommended fixes
You’ll receive a written audit outlining what I found, why it matters and what I recommend addressing first.
For businesses that want a deeper analysis of their website and organic search strategy. The Advanced SEO Audit includes everything in the standard audit, along with a broader review of your rankings, competitors, backlinks, content and SEO opportunities.
- Detailed keyword and ranking analysis
- Competitor SEO analysis
- Content and keyword gap analysis
- Backlink profile review
- Website architecture review
- Deeper internal linking analysis
- Local SEO and Google Business Profile review, where relevant
- Identification of high-value SEO opportunities
- Prioritised implementation roadmap
- 45–60 minute strategy call to walk through the findings
Rather than simply identifying technical errors, this audit is designed to give you a clearer roadmap for improving your overall organic search performance.
No spreadsheet full of errors, no idea where to start.
An SEO audit shouldn’t leave you with a spreadsheet containing hundreds of errors and no idea where to start. Recommendations are prioritised based on their potential impact and urgency, so you can understand what should be addressed first and what can wait.
You can implement the recommendations internally, provide the audit to your developer, or work with Scale SEO to implement the changes. There is no requirement to sign up for ongoing SEO services.
Two different things, built for two different needs.
Free SEO Assessment
Scale SEO also offers an initial SEO assessment for businesses considering ongoing monthly SEO services. These assessments provide a high-level look at your current search visibility and potential opportunities — included at no cost for prospective monthly retainer clients.
Standalone SEO Audit
A standalone SEO audit is different. It involves a much deeper review of your website and provides documented findings and recommendations that your business can use independently, with no obligation to sign up for ongoing services.
Not Sure Which Audit You Need?
The right level of audit depends on the size of your website, your current SEO performance and what you’re trying to accomplish. Book a short discovery call and I’ll take a look at your website, discuss what you’re experiencing and recommend the appropriate scope.
