What is a Technical SEO Audit and What You Get?
A Technical SEO Audit is a thorough evaluation of your website's technical performance to ensure it aligns with search engine requirements. It delves into critical aspects like site architecture, crawlability, indexability, mobile-friendliness, structured data, XML sitemaps, URL structure, broken links, redirects, and canonical tags.
The audit ensures search engines can easily access, read, and index your content while optimizing page load speed, which impacts both user experience and rankings. Think of it as a health check-up for your website—analyzing all technical elements to improve search visibility, user satisfaction, and traffic.
Site Crawlability & Indexability Check
Search engines need to crawl and index your website to rank it properly and easily. For this, our technical experts ensure your website's robots.txt file is correctly configured. It allows search engines to access the pages they should while blocking those they shouldn’t. We also audit your sitemap, ensuring it is correctly formatted and submitted to major search engines for accurate indexing.
Website Speed Optimization
Website speed is one of the most critical ranking factors. We conduct an A to Z Website Speed Optimization audit to identify issues slowing down your site. Afterwards, if there is an issue like large image size, we optimize images and compress files to reduce server response time. This helps your site load faster, improving both your rankings and user experience.
Core Web Vitals Optimization
Core Web Vitals have become a key factor in Google’s ranking algorithm. These metrics measure how users perceive a page's speed, responsiveness, and visual stability. Pixel and Rank focuses on improving these vital factors and assuring that your website meets the latest Core Web Vitals requirements for optimal performance.
JavaScript Optimization
Excessive or inefficient JavaScript can severely impact your website’s performance and SEO. We analyze your site’s JavaScript and suggest improvements to ensure it does not hinder your website’s load times or search engine crawlability. Our JavaScript Optimization strategies help your website run smoothly while maintaining its functionality.
Fixing Broken Links & Redirects
Broken links and redirect errors frustrate users and impact your SEO rankings. We conduct a thorough audit to find and fix any broken links or incorrect redirects on your site. This step helps to enhance the user's seamless browsing experience so search engines can properly index your pages.
Web Performance Optimization
We analyze your website’s overall performance, looking at factors such as server speed, mobile optimization, and more. By addressing these key performance metrics, we help ensure that your site provides an excellent experience for visitors and search engines alike.
HTTPS and Security Optimization
Security is critical for both users and search engines. We ensure your website is using HTTPS to encrypt data and protect user information. Our security optimization efforts also focus on resolving vulnerabilities that could harm your site’s performance or ranking.
Structured Data & Schema Markup
We analyze your website’s overall performance, looking at factors such as server speed, mobile optimization, and more. By addressing these key performance metrics, we help ensure that your site provides an excellent experience for visitors and search engines alike.
Identify Duplicate Content
Duplicate content can harm your SEO rankings. We carefully audit your site for duplicate content and suggest it be removed or consolidated. By addressing these issues, we help maintain the effectiveness of your SEO efforts, ensuring each page on your site is unique and optimized for search.
