An Audit That Finds What Tools Miss

A free scanner gives you a score and a hundred "errors." It won't tell you which three of them are actually capping your rankings. Our audit does — a human read of your site, backed by crawl data, that ends in a prioritized plan you can act on.

Why Not Just Use a Free Tool?

A Score Isn't a Strategy

Free auditors and ChatGPT are useful — we use tools too. But they share three blind spots that leave the real problems hidden:

  • They flag everything equally — no sense of what matters for your site
  • They can't weigh context — your analytics, backlinks, competitors, and history
  • They stop at "what's wrong" — not the sequence of fixes that moves rankings

The value of an audit isn't the list of issues. It's the judgment that turns forty findings into the three that will actually change your traffic.

Can ChatGPT audit my site?

It can review text you paste and explain concepts. It can't crawl your pages, render JavaScript, measure Core Web Vitals, or see your Search Console data — which is exactly where ranking problems hide. Treat AI as an assistant to the audit, not the audit itself.

What's Included

Five Layers, One Prioritized Plan

We review the whole picture, then hand you a ranked roadmap — not a raw error dump.

⚙️

Technical health

Crawl, indexation, site speed and Core Web Vitals, mobile, redirects, canonicals, and JavaScript rendering — the foundation everything else sits on.

📄

On-page & content

Titles, structure, internal linking, keyword targeting, and thin or cannibalizing pages — where relevance is won or lost.

🔗

Backlinks & authority

Link profile quality, toxic-link risk, and the gap between your authority and the sites outranking you.

🎯

Competitor gap

The keywords and content your competitors rank for that you don't — your fastest opportunities, made explicit.

📊

Analytics reality-check

What your GA4 and Search Console data actually say about where traffic and conversions are leaking.

🗺️

Prioritized roadmap

Every finding ranked by impact vs. effort, with the "what, why it matters, and how to fix it" — in plain English.

The deliverable

A written report you'll actually read, plus a walkthrough call. No 60-page PDF of screenshots — just the findings that matter, why they matter, the fix, and the order to do them in. Yours to keep, whether or not we do the work.

Free vs. Deep-Dive

Start Free, Go Deep Only If You Need To

Every engagement opens with a free audit — enough to show your biggest opportunities and whether a full audit is even worth it. If your site needs the deep-dive, we scope it as a fixed-price project, sized to your site.

  • Free audit: top issues and opportunities, delivered within 48 hours
  • Deep-dive: full five-layer review, fixed price, scoped from the free audit
  • No retainer required — a one-time audit is a valid stopping point
Transparent Pricing

What an SEO Audit Costs

Market reality: a professional SEO audit runs $500–$5,000 — a small local site at the low end, a large ecommerce catalog at the high end. Free tool scans surface generic issues only. We start with a free audit, then quote a fixed price for the deep-dive only if your site needs one. Standalone audits don't require an ongoing plan.
FAQ

SEO Audit Questions

How much does an SEO audit cost?
A professional audit typically costs $500–$5,000 depending on site size and depth. We start every engagement with a free audit, then scope a paid deep-dive as a fixed-price project only if your site needs one. See pricing →
Can ChatGPT do an SEO audit?
ChatGPT can explain concepts and review text you paste in, but it can't crawl your site, render JavaScript, measure Core Web Vitals, or see your analytics and backlink data — so it can't find the real issues capping your rankings. It's an assistant to the audit, not the audit.
Can I do my own SEO audit?
Yes — run a free crawler and follow our DIY checklist to catch the obvious issues. What's hard to do yourself is prioritization: knowing which three of forty findings actually move rankings for your site. That judgment is what an auditor is for.
What are SEO audit services?
A structured review of everything affecting your search performance — technical health, on-page, content, backlinks, and competitor gaps — delivered as a prioritized, plain-English action plan rather than a raw list of errors. It's the first step in our full SEO services.
