Technical SEO
Great SEO starts with solid foundations.
Technical issues are often invisible — but they can quietly prevent your website from ranking, no matter how good your content is. We audit your site thoroughly, find what’s holding you back, and fix it properly.
What's included.
✓ Full technical SEO audit
✓ Site speed and Core Web Vitals
✓ Crawlability and indexing fixes
✓ Mobile-first optimisation
✓ Schema markup and structured data
✓ Detailed report with clear recommendations
Why it matters
You can't rank what search engines can't read.
Sound familiar?
Most businesses focus on the visible parts of SEO: keywords, content and links. But if search engines can't crawl your pages, your site loads slowly or key pages aren't indexed, none of that work can pay off.
Technical SEO is the part most people don't think about until something goes wrong. We audit your site thoroughly, find every issue, minor or major, and fix them in priority order. The result is a site search engines can properly crawl, understand and rank.
Your rankings have dropped without explanation
Algorithm updates, indexing problems and technical errors can all tank rankings suddenly. A technical audit finds the cause.
Your pages aren't appearing in search
If Google can't crawl or index your content, it can't rank it. This is often a technical problem, not a content one.
Your site is slow
Page speed is a confirmed ranking factor. A slow site costs you rankings and loses you visitors who don't wait for it to load.
You've inherited a website with unknown problems
New to a site that has years of technical debt? We dig through everything and give you a clear picture of what needs addressing.
What's included
A thorough audit. No loose ends.
Our technical SEO service covers every aspect of your site’s technical health — from how search engines crawl it to how fast it loads on a mobile device.
01
Full technical audit
A comprehensive review of your entire website covering crawlability, indexing, site architecture, internal linking, duplicate content, redirect chains and more. You receive a full report with clear prioritised recommendations.
02
Site speed & Core Web Vitals
We identify and fix what's making your site slow — oversized images, render-blocking resources, poor server response times and more. Core Web Vitals are a Google ranking factor and we make sure yours are in good shape.
03
Crawlability & indexing
We check how search engines are crawling your site, identify pages that shouldn't be indexed and fix issues preventing important pages from being found. This includes robots.txt, XML sitemaps and crawl budget management.
04
Mobile optimisation
Google indexes the mobile version of your site first. We make sure your site performs properly on mobile — from layout and tap targets to mobile page speed and responsive design issues.
05
Schema markup
We add structured data to your site to help search engines better understand your content and display rich results — including FAQ schema, article schema, local business schema and more.
06
Ongoing monitoring
For clients on a retained arrangement, we monitor your technical health continuously, catching new issues before they affect your rankings and keeping your site in good standing as it evolves.
How it works
Simple from the very first call.
01
Audit & discovery
We carry out a full technical audit of your site and present the findings clearly — what the issues are, how serious they are, and what fixing them will involve.
02
Prioritise & fix
We work through the fixes in priority order, starting with the issues most likely to have an immediate impact on your rankings and user experience, especially on mobile.
03
Report & monitor
You receive a clear summary of everything that was done and why. For ongoing clients, we set up monitoring to catch new issues as they arise, maximising efficiency.

Google reviews
Fully transparent
You receive a clear, plain-English audit report — not a 200-row spreadsheet with no context. We walk you through every finding and make sure you understand what we're fixing and why it matters.
Data-backed decisions
Every recommendation we make is based on evidence — crawl data, performance metrics, Core Web Vitals scores and real ranking impact. We prioritise fixes by the effect they're likely to have, not by how easy they are.
Always evolving
Technical SEO requirements change as search engines evolve. What mattered three years ago is different from what matters now. We stay current so your site's technical health never becomes a liability.

Do I need technical SEO if my site already ranks?
Technical health is worth auditing even for well-ranking sites — particularly if you’re planning a redesign, have recently migrated platforms or want to protect your current rankings against algorithm updates. It’s much easier to fix issues proactively than to diagnose them after rankings have dropped.
How long does a technical SEO audit take?
For most small to medium websites, a thorough audit covering all aspects of your website can take 3-5 days to be delivered. Larger or more complex sites may take longer. We’ll give you a clear timeline after an initial review.
Can you fix issues on any CMS or platform?
We specialise in WordPress but have experience with a range of platforms. Some fixes are platform-specific — we’ll be upfront about what’s possible on your particular setup.
Will fixing technical issues improve my rankings immediately?
Some fixes — particularly those affecting crawlability and indexing — can show results relatively quickly once search engines re-crawl your site. Others, like site speed improvements, take longer to reflect in rankings. We’ll set realistic expectations from the start.
Is technical SEO a one-off job or ongoing?
Both. An audit and fix is a project with a clear start and end. But websites evolve — new pages are added, plugins are updated, things break — so ongoing monitoring has real value if you want to maintain good technical health over time.
Do I need technical SEO alongside managed SEO?
Technical SEO is included as part of our fully managed SEO service. The standalone technical service is for businesses who specifically need their foundations addressed — perhaps before launching a new site, after a migration, or where technical issues are the primary barrier to ranking.
