Free 24-Hour Technical SEO Audit — What You’ll Get

A realistic, fast snapshot of your site’s technical health—delivered within 24 hours of intake. This is a focused technical SEO audit, not a generic checklist.

Who this is for

  • Sites that suspect crawl/indexing issues, speed problems, or Core Web Vitals regressions.
  • Teams that want a prioritized, actionable to-do list before investing in a full audit.
  • Stakeholders who need a quick, credible read on risk & opportunity.

What you’ll receive in 24 hours

A single, clearly written report (PDF/Doc), including:

  • Executive summary (1 page): top risks, top wins, and expected impact.
  • Priority fixes (Top 10): what to fix, why it matters, and how to tackle it.
  • Quick wins (5–10): low-effort changes that improve speed or visibility fast.
  • Crawl & indexability snapshot: blocked paths, broken links, redirect chains, orphaned pages (sample-based).
  • Core Web Vitals + speed: lab data (and field data from CrUX if available), with specific causes and next steps.
  • Architecture & internal linking (high level): depth to key pages, navigation issues, faceted/parameter risks.
  • Structured data/schema check: presence, validity, and opportunities for rich results.
  • Robots.txt & XML sitemaps: coverage, errors, and index hints.
  • JavaScript rendering spot check: what Google can/can’t see on critical templates.
  • Security basics: HTTPS / SSL, mixed-content, and redirect consistency.
  • UX signals (lite): GA4/Clarity observations (if access is granted)—obvious friction and drop-off points.
  • Impact × effort matrix: recommended order of work for your team.
Typical output surfaces 20–40 actionable findings suitable for immediate implementation.

What we need to start

  • Your main domain (and any key subdomains).
  • Your primary goals (e.g., leads, sales, signups) and 3–5 key pages/templates.
  • Optional but helpful: read-only access to Google Search Console and GA4; Microsoft Clarity if available.
  • Your CMS/stack (e.g., WordPress, Shopify, custom) and any known constraints.

How the 24-hour window works

  • When the clock starts

The 24-hour window begins only after we receive your complete intake and (if you choose to share it) read-only access. Complete intake = domain, 3–5 key pages/templates, primary goals, CMS/stack, and any known constraints. If access arrives later, the 24-hour window starts when access is granted.

  • Business hours & calendar

We work Monday–Friday, 9:00–5:00 CT (Chicago) and observe U.S. federal holidays. Requests outside business hours start the next business day at 9:00 CT.

  • Rare delays (what could push delivery)

In unusual cases (e.g., major third-party outages in GSC/Lighthouse/GA4/Clarity, WAF/CDN blocks that prevent crawling, or force-majeure events), we’ll notify you promptly, deliver the core findings on time, and flag any items that need a short follow-up once systems/access recover.

Kickoff call (required): the 24-hour timer starts only after a 10–15 minute call to verify identity, align goals, and confirm scope/access.

Out of scope (and why)

These require deeper access, longer crawls, or multi-team work—doing them “halfway” in 24 hours risks incomplete or misleading guidance:

  • Full site crawl or log-file analysis (needs time, credentials, and larger datasets).
  • Template-by-template JavaScript rendering audit (we do targeted spot checks instead).
  • International SEO/hreflang and complex multi-locale setups.
  • Backlink/off-page analysis and digital PR.
  • Keyword research, content strategy, or full on-page rewrites.
  • Implementation and dev changes (we provide the steps; execution can be scoped separately).
  • Custom dashboards or long-form reporting beyond the items listed above.

Data sources & tools

  • Google Search Console, PageSpeed Insights/Lighthouse, CrUX (if available).
  • GA4 and Microsoft Clarity (optional, read-only).
  • Industry-standard crawlers and schema validators.

Assumptions & limitations

  • One primary domain (additional domains/subdomains can be scoped).
  • Very large or highly faceted ecommerce sites may be sample-crawled to meet the 24-hour SLA.
  • CrUX field data appears only when Google has enough traffic; otherwise we provide lab metrics.
  • Findings are a snapshot, not an exhaustive, full-scale audit.

Deliverables & format

  • One report (PDF or Google Doc) with screenshots, issue counts, and recommended fixes.
  • Prioritized task list you can paste into your tracker (Jira/Trello/Asana formatting on request).
  • Optional: 15-minute debrief call to walk through the highlights (scheduled after delivery).

Confidentiality

  • Access is read-only and revoked after the audit.
  • We can sign an NDA on request.
  • Any local copies of your data are deleted within 14 days of delivery.

After the free audit

  • You decide: run with the fixes internally, or ask us to scope implementation or a full technical SEO audit.
  • No pressure, no contract—this is meant to help you move forward fast.
