Why technical SEO matters for a local business
You can have great reviews and a strong Google Business Profile and still lose customers because of your website. Most local searches happen on a phone. If your site loads slowly, hides your phone number or has service pages Google cannot find, people leave and your rankings slip. AI tools have the same problem. They cannot recommend what they cannot read.
What our technical SEO services cover
Crawling and indexing
We check your robots.txt file, XML sitemap, canonical tags, redirects and which pages Google has actually indexed.
Site speed and Core Web Vitals
We measure loading speed, responsiveness and layout stability on mobile and desktop.
Mobile usability
We check layout, button size, readable text and how the site renders on phones.
Structured data
We add and test LocalBusiness, Service, FAQPage and Review schema.
JavaScript rendering
We make sure content built with JavaScript is visible to Google and to AI crawlers.
Site structure
We review internal links, URL structure and how many clicks it takes to reach key pages.
Security and errors
We check HTTPS, mixed content, broken links and missing pages.

How our technical SEO audit services work
Your Growth Score includes a quick technical check that runs in minutes. Growth Pro adds 10 premium audit reports a month, and Growth Elite adds advanced technical SEO and unlimited SEO improvements. Every issue is ranked by how much it is likely to affect your rankings and leads, so the important fixes come first.
A full technical SEO audit usually finds a mix of quick wins and deeper problems. We fix the quick wins in the first two weeks and plan the rest in order of impact.
The technical problems we fix most often
- Service pages that Google never indexed, often because of a stray noindex tag, a blocked folder or no internal links pointing to them.
- Slow mobile pages caused by large images, heavy themes, sliders and too many plugins.
- Duplicate pages, such as the same content on www and non www versions, which splits your rankings.
- Broken redirects after a redesign, which throw away rankings the old pages had earned.
- Missing or broken schema, so Google and AI tools cannot confirm your business details.
- Phone numbers, addresses or hours shown only inside images, where search engines cannot read them.
Core Web Vitals optimization
Google measures three things for every page, and publishes a "good" score for each one.
| Measure | What it checks | Good score |
|---|---|---|
| Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) | How fast the main content loads | 2.5 seconds or less |
| Interaction to Next Paint (INP) | How quickly the page responds to taps and clicks | 200 milliseconds or less |
| Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) | How much the page jumps around while it loads | 0.1 or less |
Our Core Web Vitals optimization work covers image size, scripts that block loading, layout shifts and slow server responses. We then track the results in Google Search Console.
Structured data and schema markup
Schema markup is a small piece of code that tells search engines and AI tools what your business is, what you offer, where you work and what customers say. Good structured data SEO makes your details easier to trust and can help your pages stand out in results. We add the right schema for each page and keep it in line with your Google Business Profile.
JavaScript SEO for modern websites
Many modern websites build their content with JavaScript. If the text only appears after scripts run, some crawlers, including many AI crawlers, may see an empty page. Our JavaScript SEO checks show what search engines actually see, and we make sure your key content is in the page when it first loads.
AI crawler access
AI tools use their own crawlers to read the web. Examples include OpenAI's GPTBot and OAI-SearchBot, Anthropic's ClaudeBot and Claude-SearchBot, PerplexityBot and Bingbot, which also supports Microsoft Copilot. Google uses a separate setting called Google-Extended for its AI models. We check your robots.txt file, firewall and hosting settings so the crawlers you want can reach your content.
Technical SEO agency or consultant, or a plan?
A technical SEO agency or a technical SEO consultant often charges by the project or by the hour, and fixes can cost extra. Our plans include the audit, the fixes and monthly monitoring for a set monthly price. If you already have a developer, we can hand them a clear list of fixes instead.
