SEO Audit

Real Core Web Vitals from Google PageSpeed Insights, plus crawlability, mobile, and accessibility.

A technical SEO audit finds what is actually broken on a website, ranks it by what to fix first, and backs every finding with evidence - not a raw metrics dump. AuditHQ pulls real Core Web Vitals from Google PageSpeed Insights, validates schema, checks mobile rendering, and crawls up to 8 pages from the sitemap. The report gives you the finding, the evidence behind it, and the fix - in minutes, no emulated scores.

120verified checks

Grouped into 5 categories. Code runs every check against your live site - AI only writes the narrative around verified findings. Methodology is proprietary; the cards below describe what each category catches.

01

11 checks

Mobile & Responsive

Whether your site renders cleanly on every viewport - viewport meta, tap targets, layout reflow, mobile-first indexing readiness.

02

14 checks

Accessibility

Accessibility readiness signals - alt text, heading hierarchy, colour contrast, keyboard navigation, focus visibility, and target sizes.

03

13 checks

Page Speed Signals

How fast your site loads for real visitors, checked using the same speed metrics Google uses to rank sites (Core Web Vitals: LCP, INP, CLS), plus modern delivery - HTTP/3, Speculation Rules, fetchpriority, image format adoption.

04

12 checks

SEO Technical

Whether search engines can actually find and read every page - indexing fundamentals like your sitemap, page-linking structure, and duplicate-page handling (robots.txt, sitemap, canonicals, hreflang, schema, breadcrumbs, soft-404 detection).

05

6 checks

Code Quality

Render-blocking resources, font-loading strategy, third-party script bloat, and semantic HTML hygiene.

Specific check definitions, regex patterns, and severity rubrics are not published. The output is a verified, evidence-backed report - not a methodology document.

Three things that quietly cost you customers.

Slow page loading can interrupt a visitor's next step.

Loading performance is part of the experience people have before using a page. Use field and lab measurements to identify delays, then measure the effect of changes on your own visitors rather than assuming a universal conversion penalty.

A missing viewport meta tag breaks mobile entirely.

Without the viewport meta tag, mobile browsers render at 980px and shrink - making text unreadably small. Google has used mobile-first indexing since 2019, so this single missing line of HTML breaks both UX and search ranking simultaneously.

Layout shift (CLS) above 0.1 is a Google ranking signal.

CLS measures unexpected layout movement (images loading without dimensions, ads appearing late, fonts swapping). Google has confirmed CLS as a ranking factor since the Page Experience update. A CLS over 0.25 is "poor" and demonstrably affects rankings on competitive queries.

criticalIllustrative example, not a current scan

Illustrative mobile page has a slow largest contentful paint

Evidence

Illustrative measurements, not a live customer result: mobile LCP is 4,238ms at the 75th percentile. The hero image is 1.8MB, served at 2400×1600 but rendered at 800×500. Confirm the resource and loading path before choosing a fix.

Recommended fix

1) Compress hero image to <200KB and serve at the rendered size with srcset. 2) Defer non-critical JS with `defer` or move below-the-fold scripts to dynamic import. 3) Add `fetchpriority="high"` to the hero image tag.

Business impact

Reducing the delay may make the main content easier to reach. Verify the performance change with comparable measurements, then assess engagement and conversion separately; this example does not predict a conversion uplift.

Fictional example of the evidence, fix and impact structure. It is not a current report or a finding about your site.

Questions, answered.

What buyers ask before running their first seo audit.

Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) from real Google PageSpeed Insights field data, mobile responsiveness and tap targets, accessibility signals, crawlability and indexing fundamentals (robots.txt, sitemap, canonicals, hreflang, schema), and code-quality issues like render-blocking resources and font-loading strategy.

AuditHQ is an automated audit platform, not a manual consulting engagement - you get the full prioritised technical report, with evidence for every finding, in minutes rather than days. Agencies commonly use it as the baseline for their own technical SEO audit service: run AuditHQ first to get the evidence-backed findings, then scope the client engagement from there.

No. Screaming Frog and other desktop crawlers give deep, page-by-page technical crawl data across an entire site. AuditHQ checks up to 8 pages from your sitemap as one part of a nine-suite report, and turns the findings into prioritised, client-ready output. Many agencies use both: a crawler for the deep technical dig, AuditHQ for the client-facing deliverable.
