Technical SEO Audit Gauteng | Find Every Hidden Problem Stopping You from Ranking

Your website might look perfect to you, but Google sees it very differently. A Technical SEO Audit finds every hidden problem that stops Google from ranking your pages, and tells you exactly how to fix them.

What Is a Technical SEO Audit in Plain English?

Think of your website like a car. It might look great from the outside, but if there are problems under the bonnet, the engine is going to misfire no matter how nice the paintwork is. A Technical SEO Audit is like taking your website to a mechanic who checks everything under the bonnet: how fast your pages load, whether Google can find all your pages, whether your links go to the right places, and whether your site is properly set up for mobile phones.

Google uses a computer program called a crawler that visits every page on your website to read its code. If the code is messy, your pages load slowly, or your links are broken, Google’s crawler gets confused and stops ranking your pages, no matter how good your content is. Technical issues override everything else.

After our audit, you get a clear report in plain English with every issue listed in order of priority, from most urgent to least, with specific instructions on how to fix each one.

⚠ Common Signs
  • Your website traffic dropped suddenly and you don’t know why
  • Google Search Console shows errors or excluded pages in red or orange
  • Your website loads slowly, especially on mobile phones
  • You recently redesigned your website and your rankings dropped
  • Some pages don’t appear in Google at all, even months after publishing
  • You’ve never had a professional technical review of your website

How to Spot Technical SEO Problems Yourself

Two free tools will show you the most common technical problems in minutes. No technical knowledge required.

Run these two free checks right now. Both tools are completely free and require no signup:

1
Go to Google PageSpeed Insights (search for it). Type in your website address and click Analyse. If your Mobile score is below 50, Google sees your site as slow and difficult to use, which hurts your rankings directly.
2
Open Google and type “site:yourwebsite.co.za” (replace with your actual domain). Count how many pages appear. Now count how many pages your website actually has. If the numbers don’t match, Google is missing some of your pages entirely.
3
If you have Google Search Console set up (it’s free), log in and click “Pages” in the left menu. Any pages shown in red are errors. Any in orange are warnings. Each one is holding back your rankings.
4
Go to Google and search your most important keyword, such as “your service your city.” If you’re not on page 1, technical problems are often part of the reason, even if your content is good.

What Our Technical Audit Covers

1
Full Website Crawl
We run every page of your website through professional tools that check the same things Google’s crawler checks, finding every broken link, error, and redirect problem.
2
Indexation Review
We check Google Search Console to see exactly which pages Google has found, which it has excluded, and why. Missing pages mean missing rankings.
3
Speed & Performance
We measure how fast every page loads on mobile and desktop, and identify the specific elements causing slowdowns, from oversized images to slow server response times.
4
Mobile Usability
We check how your website performs on phones and tablets, since most of your customers are on mobile and Google uses mobile performance as a primary ranking factor.
5
Site Architecture
We review how your pages are organised and linked together internally, ensuring Google can find all your important pages and understands your site’s topic structure.
6
Prioritised Report
You receive a clear PDF report with every finding explained in plain English, sorted by priority: what to fix first for the biggest ranking impact.
