Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I Fix the Issues Myself or Do I Need Help?

    Yes, your team can handle the implementation if you like, or you can have us make the changes for you.

  • Is a Technical SEO Audit the Same as a Full SEO Audit?

    Not exactly. A technical SEO audit focuses on the backend and infrastructure of your website. A full SEO audit includes technical analysis plus on-page SEO, content evaluation, keyword research, and competitive research.

  • Will a Technical SEO Audit Improve My Rankings?

    While we cannot guarantee what Google will do, by following their best practices as laid out in our tech audit, over time you stand a very good chance of seeing improvement in rankings.

  • What Tools Are Used in a Technical SEO Audit?

    We use a combination of tools including:

    • Google Search Console & Analytics
    • Screaming Frog
    • PageSpeed Insights
    • GTmetrix
    • Schema validators and mobile-friendly test tools

    These tools help identify technical SEO issues across multiple areas.

  • Is a Technical Audit Necessary for New Websites?

    Absolutely. Launching a new site with technical issues can delay indexation or damage early search performance. Performing an audit before or right after launch ensures everything is optimized for search engines from the start.
