SEO Audit

Find out what is holding your website back.

A structured, platform-specific audit of your Squarespace or Shopify site. Five pillars reviewed, every gap documented, every fix prioritised. You receive a written report and a Loom walkthrough — not a spreadsheet of observations with no direction.

What we audit

Five pillars. Every layer covered.

Every audit follows the same five-pillar framework regardless of platform. Shopify audits include a sixth ecommerce-specific pillar covering product pages, collections, and conversion signals. Nothing is omitted to keep the price down.

01

Technical health

Crawlability, indexation, site speed, Core Web Vitals, mobile performance, canonical tags, and structured data. The foundations that determine whether search engines can find and understand your site in the first place.

02

On-page SEO

Title tags, meta descriptions, heading structure, keyword alignment, internal linking, and image optimisation. Reviewed against the intent signals of your target audience, not generic best-practice checklists.

03

Content and authority

Content gaps, thin pages, duplicate content, and topical authority signals. We identify where your site is invisible for searches your clients are conducting and what content would close that gap.

04

Local visibility

Google Business Profile health, local citation consistency, NAP accuracy, and local schema. For service businesses with a geographic reach, local signals are often the highest-impact and fastest-moving lever.

05

AEO and AI readiness

Answer Engine Optimisation signals that determine whether your content gets cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overview. Included in every audit because AI search is no longer a future consideration.

What you receive

Three deliverables. All actionable.

Every audit delivers the same three outputs regardless of scope or platform. No raw data dumps. No generic recommendations. Everything is written for your specific site, your platform, and your business context.

Written report

Prioritized findings document

A structured PDF covering all five pillars with every finding scored by impact and implementation difficulty. Issues are ranked so you know where to start — not presented alphabetically or by category.

Video walkthrough

Loom walkthrough — 20 to 40 minutes

A recorded screen walkthrough where we talk through the key findings on your actual site. You see the issues in context, not just described in a document. Referenceable any time.

Action plan

30-day quick-win list

A separate short list of the fixes you can implement yourself within 30 days without technical help. Separated from the full findings so you have a clear immediate starting point.

How it works

Book. Share access. Receive your report.

The audit is fully remote. You do not need to prepare anything beyond sharing view access to your site. We handle the rest and deliver within the agreed timeframe.

01

Book and confirm scope

Book via the strategy call page or contact us directly. We confirm which audit tier applies to your site and agree a delivery date before you pay.

02

Share view access

Add us as a contributor with viewer permissions on Squarespace, or a read-only staff account on Shopify. No edit access required. Takes two minutes.

03

We conduct the audit

We review your site across all five pillars using a combination of manual review and platform-specific tools. No automated report generators.

04

Report and Loom delivered

You receive the written report, Loom walkthrough, and 30-day quick-win list within five to seven business days. Book a follow-up call if you want to talk through the findings.

Pricing and scope

Two platforms. Different scope, different price.

Squarespace and Shopify audits are priced differently because the scope differs. Shopify sites have additional ecommerce complexity — product pages, collections, app stack, and conversion signals — that require a sixth pillar and more review time.

Questions

Before you get started.

If your question is not here, the strategy call is the right place to ask it.

We typically deliver the written report and Loom walkthrough within five to seven business days of receiving access to your site. If your project has a specific deadline, let us know when you enquire and we will confirm whether we can accommodate it.
We need view access to your Squarespace or Shopify site. For Squarespace, this means adding us as a contributor with viewer permissions. For Shopify, a staff account with read access. We do not need edit permissions to conduct the audit.
The Loom walkthrough covers your highest-priority findings on your actual site. We screen-record while talking through the issues in context — so you see the problem on your page, not just read a description of it. Most walkthroughs run between 20 and 40 minutes depending on audit scope.
Yes. If you want us to handle the implementation, we can scope a done-for-you SEO project based on the audit findings. Many clients use the audit as the discovery phase before moving into implementation. A 10% credit toward implementation applies if booked within 30 days.
We can review any website and provide written observations. Our structured five-pillar audit with platform-specific implementation notes is built specifically for Squarespace and Shopify. If your site is on another platform, the strategy call is a better starting point.
We regularly audit work done by other agencies and freelancers. If you want a second opinion or a more platform-specific assessment, our audit will tell you what was covered, what was missed, and what to prioritise next.
Yes. We work with clients across Canada and the US. The entire audit process is remote. You share access, we conduct the review, and we deliver the report and Loom walkthrough digitally.
