SEO Audit
BENEFITS
Let us assess the weak spots of your website!
KNOW WHAT HOLDS YOU DOWN
Taking a deep dive into your online presence and identifying all weak spots of your website will give you a clear picture of why your online business doesn’t get the traction it deserves. The first step towards improving your site performance is to diagnose the unhealthy onsite issues and to understand how they influence your rankings.
HAVE A STRATEGY FOR IMPROVEMENT
The detailed nature of our SEO Audit has both a diagnostic and a strategic side to it. The Audit offers an actionable plan on how to recover from your disadvantageous position and optimize your site for the search engines. You are free to either entrust us with the implementation of the plan or to apply our recommendations in-house.
BENCHMARK AGAINST YOUR COMPETITORS
Among the key stages of the SEO audit is the competitive analysis. Knowing what works for your online rivals and what you’ve failed to incorporate in your online strategy is what eventually moves the needle in the game of rankings. Learn what kind of keyword targeting, content pieces and link opportunities make your competitors superior.
LEARN HOW GOOGLE SEES YOUR SITE
In order to be successful you need to create a great website for your target audience, while still keeping in mind Google’s guidelines. The SEO audit helps you conclude how Google perceives your website: how it crawls and indexes it, whether he approves of its loading speed, content and other technical issues, including if it has a Google Penalty.
