Sample findings
What audit findings look like, and what they mean
An audit is only useful if you understand what each problem costs you and how to fix it. These are common findings and how we explain them.
| Finding | What it means for you | Typical fix |
|---|---|---|
| Important pages not indexed | Google is not showing these pages at all, so they cannot bring traffic. | Remove accidental noindex tags, fix canonicals and submit the pages in Search Console. |
| Duplicate title tags | Google struggles to tell your pages apart, and your search results look the same. | Write a unique title for each page around the search it should rank for. |
| Slow mobile pages | Visitors leave before the page loads, and Google may rank you lower on phones. | Compress images, remove unused scripts and fix render-blocking code. |
| Broken internal links | Visitors and Google hit dead ends, and link value is wasted. | Update or redirect broken links to the right live pages. |
| No local schema markup | Google has to guess key details about your business. | Add business and service schema with accurate details. |
| Weak backlink profile | Competitors have far more trusted sites pointing at them. | A steady outreach link building plan aimed at your key pages. |
Prioritizing
Why we rank every fix by impact and effort
Most audit tools give you hundreds of warnings. Most of them do not matter.
A typical automated report can list 200 or more issues, from missing alt text on a decorative image to a sitemap that is technically out of date. Business owners often try to fix everything in order, spend weeks on small details and never get to the problems that are actually holding them back.
We sort every finding into a short, ranked list. High-impact, low-effort fixes come first, because they usually bring the fastest results. High-impact, high-effort work is planned next. Low-impact items are noted, but we will tell you honestly when something is not worth your time or money.
That judgement comes from experience. After 9 years and more than 1,500 campaigns, we know which issues move rankings and which only make a report look longer.

Timing
When you should get an SEO audit
An audit is most valuable at turning points, when something has changed or when results have stalled and nobody knows why. These are the moments we recommend one most often.
- Traffic or calls from Google have dropped
- You are about to redesign or move your website
- You changed your domain, platform or URL structure
- You have paid for SEO but cannot see results
- You are opening a new location or service
- You have never had a proper audit before
Our approach
Audits done by people, not just tools
We use professional tools to collect data, but a person reviews every finding before it reaches you. Tools cannot tell which page matters most to your business, or whether a warning is actually a problem for your site.
- Checked by an experienced SEO, not just a script
- Explained in plain language
- Focused on results, not a perfect score
What to avoid
Common audit mistakes
Chasing a perfect score
A tool score of 100 does not guarantee rankings. Focus on fixes that bring traffic and calls.
Fixing everything at once
Start with the issues that matter most, then work down the list.
Ignoring content and links
Technical fixes help, but content and backlinks usually decide who ranks first.
Client portal
After the audit, watch the progress
If you choose a monthly SEO plan after your audit, you get a login to our client portal and can see every fix, backlink and ranking change for yourself.
Outreach backlink analytics
Every outreach backlink we build for you each month is listed with clear analytics, and the backlink data is updated every week.
Keyword and page rankings
Your keyword rankings and page rankings come straight from Google. We are approved for Google API data, so the numbers are Google's own.
Indexed pages
See which of your pages Google has indexed, pulled directly from Google, so you know your important pages can actually be found.
Clicks and impressions
Track how many times your site appears in Google search and how many people click through, month by month.
Domain Rating from Ahrefs
Watch your website's Domain Rating (DR), provided by Ahrefs, grow as your backlink profile gets stronger.
Blog content calendar
On the Growth ($290) and Authority ($499) plans, a calendar shows every upcoming article and the exact date it will be posted.
Clear data for every customer, so you can always see what is being done and what it is achieving.

Audits and Google Maps
What Does a Local SEO and Google Maps Audit Check?
A useful audit does not stop at the website. For local businesses, the biggest problems often sit on Google Maps.
Our local audit measures where you rank on Google Maps across your whole service area, not from one spot. Whether the target is Google Maps Mississauga, Oshawa or a rural township, we chart your local map pack ranking on a grid so you see exactly where you appear and where you disappear.
Next, the Google Business Profile is reviewed field by field. We look for duplicate or suspended listings, check categories and services, compare you with the top three and audit citations for mismatched names, addresses and phone numbers. Google Business Listing optimization fixes are ranked by impact so you know what to tackle first.
You leave knowing how to win more calls and visits, and exactly what nearby competitors are doing better.
What the audit covers
- Grid rank check: your position across dozens of map points
- Profile review: every field compared with the top three
- Duplicate search: stray or old listings found
- Citation audit: mismatched details flagged
- Priority list: fixes ranked by likely impact

FAQ
SEO audit questions
What is an SEO audit?
An SEO audit is a full check of everything that affects how your website ranks on Google: technical health, speed, content, local signals and backlinks. A good audit does not just list problems. It ranks them by impact so you know what to fix first.
How much do SEO audit services cost?
Our instant free SEO audit tool and our manual review are both free. If you want us to fix what we find, our monthly SEO plans start at $99 a month with no contracts. Many agencies charge $500 to $5,000 for a one-time audit.
How long does an SEO audit take?
The free tool takes about a minute. A manual review comes back within one business day. Large sites with hundreds of pages take longer, and we will tell you upfront if that applies.
What tools do you use?
We use Google Search Console, Google PageSpeed Insights, a full site crawler and backlink tools, then review the results by hand. Tools find issues, but a person decides what actually matters for your business.
How often should I get an SEO audit?
Once or twice a year is enough for most small business sites. Always run one before and after a redesign, a move to a new domain or a big drop in traffic.
Will you fix the problems you find?
Yes, if you want us to. Our plans cover technical fixes, on-page work and monthly backlinks. You can also take the audit to your own developer. The recommendations are yours to keep either way.
Is the free tool enough?
It is a good first check for technical issues. It cannot judge content quality, compare you with competitors or review your Google Business Profile, which is why we also offer the free manual review.
Why am I not showing up on Google Maps?
Common causes include the wrong categories, an incomplete or unverified profile, duplicate listings, inconsistent details or simply being far from where people search. The audit pinpoints which apply.
What is a grid ranking check?
It measures your map position from many points across your area, not just one. It shows where you are strong and where you vanish.
Does the audit look at my competitors' Google listings?
Yes. We compare your listing with the top three businesses for your main searches and show what they do better.
