The Best SEO Audits. Period.

SEO is Complex. Our Audits Make it Simple.

Our audits address the key SEO ranking factors, from the standard Titles and Meta descriptions all the way down to your link profile, social visibility and more; our SEO audits are incredibly thorough. Even better, our audits are 100% actionable. For each element we analyze we provide specific recommendations, search engine optimization best practices and detailed instructions to help you or your team implement the recommended changes.

Full SEO Audit

A full SEO audit is typically broken down as follows:

On-Page SEO – We analyze the key areas of on-site optimization that have the greatest impact on SEO, from keyword integration and URL structure to site usability, Schema markup and much more. We also analyze your existing content and content strategy.
Technical SEO – We analyze the key areas of indexation, from robots files and XML sitemaps to bot loops, page load speed (including Core Web Vitals), mobile usability and more.
Linking & Social Signals – We analyze the key areas of external linking and social shares in relation to your top ranking competitors so you know where you stand on the competitive front (since all things in Google are relative to other sites).

Audit Deliverables

SEO Audit Document – The finished audit is delivered as an enhanced PDF. In addition to the findings of the audit, it also includes links out to a wide variety of resources to aid in the implementation of our recommended changes.
Keyword and Ranking Research – We pull down existing keyword and ranking data for your site from multiple sources, as well as lists of top ranking pages, so you can easily see where the low hanging fruit is from an SEO perspective.
Site Crawl Report – We use a customized tool to crawl through your website just as a search engine does, to help us identify key areas in need of improvement. We also include and analyze data from GSC if you provide access.
Linking and Social Report – We analyze your top 4 ranking competitors from both a linking and a social perspective, to show you where you sit in relation to your competitors.

Pricing

Pricing is based on the size and complexity of your site:

$5,000 – For small sites (<1,000 pages)
$7,500 – For medium sites (1,000+)
$10,000 – For large sites (10,000+)
$15,000+ – For extra large sites (100,000+ pages; final price depends on site size and complexity, up to a max of $30,000)

If you’d like to do a Technical SEO audit only, the price is 50% of what’s listed above, and includes the technical section and the crawl report only.

We’re often asked if we can audit just part of a site, to keep the price down, and the answer is almost always no. Auditing just a portion of a site with any accuracy usually adds MORE time to the audit process, since many of the tools we use are unable to return data on just a small part of a site (for linking and social signals in particular it can get super tricky).

We look at everything that is indexable and that lives in the root domain we’re auditing.

Not only will our audit provide you with a crystal clear idea of what’s wrong and how to fix it, but it could even be used in litigation to show that a previous SEO company didn’t do what they were supposed to have done. If your site has been penalized by Google Panda or Penguin updates, or if you need to diagnose a traffic drop, an audit would be a very wise investment.

Last But Not Least:

Turnaround time on all audits is 2-3 weeks from the date payment is received and access to GA and GSC is granted.

All audits also include a follow-up Zoom call to answer any questions you may have about the audit deliverables.

You can also add an SEO Strategy to any SEO Audit package for an additional $5,000.

For all of our audit and strategy services we require payment upfront before we begin any work. At this time we only accept electronic payment and will send our invoices via PayPal, which allows you to pay via credit card, debit card, E-Check or bank transfer (no PayPal account required).

In order to perform the most accurate audit possible, we will require access to your web analytics platform and Google Webmaster Tools. If access cannot be provided, our audit will not be as thorough as it otherwise would have been, but it can still be done.
