Why Audit?

A Ferrari with a flat tire won't win a race. Technical SEO ensures your "car" (website) is mechanically sound.

The 10-Point Audit

  1. Robots.txt: Are you blocking Google accidentally?
  2. Sitemap.xml: Is it submitted to Search Console?
  3. Indexing: Search site:yourdomain.com. Do pages appear?
  4. HTTPS: Is the padlock secure? Mixed content warnings?
  5. Page Speed: Are LCP/CLS metrics green?
  6. Mobile Friendly: Pass the Google Mobile test?
  7. Broken Links: Use "Check My Links" extension to find 404s.
  8. Duplicate Content: Canonical tags properly set?
  9. URL Structure: No weird parameters (?id=123).
  10. Schema: Rich snippets working?

Tools You Need

  • Google Search Console (Free & Mandatory)
  • Screaming Frog (Free up to 500 URLs) - Best crawler.
