Clients We've Worked With
What an Actionable Technical SEO Audit Looks Like
A useful audit finding connects an observed issue with a specific action and a way to verify it. The example below is illustrative, not a client result.
- Affected page
- A priority service URL that redirects to an unrelated page.
- Evidence
- The crawl records a redirect; the destination does not explain the original service.
- Priority and impact
- Review early when the URL has relevant search visibility or incoming links and customers still need the service.
- Recommended action
- Confirm the appropriate destination and update the redirect and affected internal links.
- Responsibility
- The agreed website owner or developer implements the change.
- Validation
- Recheck the status code, destination, internal links and applicable canonical or indexing directives.
Google's technical requirements establish basic eligibility for Search: Googlebot must be able to access the page, the page must work, and it must contain indexable content. Meeting these requirements does not guarantee indexing or rankings.
Technical Issues We Investigate
Technical SEO investigates whether website behaviour is preventing customers or search engines from reaching important information. We assess crawl responses, indexing directives, canonical URLs, internal links and performance in context. Each recommendation should identify the evidence and the pages affected, rather than treating every audit warning as an urgent ranking problem.
