Technical SEO Audit

Technical SEO Audit for Finding Crawl, Indexing, and Site Performance Issues

A SommeTech technical SEO audit is a diagnostic engagement: a complete review of crawl, indexing, Core Web Vitals, metadata, canonical, and internal link issues — delivered as a prioritized fix roadmap so you know exactly what is wrong and what to address first, before committing to ongoing implementation work.

Technical SEO audit — diagnostic site health and crawl issues report

Why You Need to Diagnose Before You Fix

Strong content cannot rank on a broken technical foundation, and ad-hoc fixes rarely produce the rankings the work deserves. An audit puts every issue on one prioritized list so the next dollar spent on technical SEO goes to the change with the largest ranking impact.

01

Crawl errors prevent search engines from discovering and indexing key pages

02

Duplicate content and canonical tag issues dilute ranking authority across multiple pages

03

Slow page load times — especially on mobile — directly penalize search rankings via Core Web Vitals

04

Missing or incorrect metadata means pages rank for wrong queries or don't appear at all

05

Broken internal links and poor site structure prevent link equity from reaching priority pages

06

Sitemap and robots.txt errors actively block pages from being indexed

The Problem

A luxury North Georgia builder serving Ellijay, Blue Ridge, Jasper, Ball Ground, and surrounding communities had a minimal previous site that didn't communicate the quality of the build work — and had effectively no presence in search. Almost everything came through referral.

The Strategy

Rebuild the site as a custom-coded, conversion-focused property organized around three core service pillars — residential construction, commercial construction, and steel/structural — with location-targeted copy for each major mountain community. Pair it with a technical SEO foundation so the site can actually be found.

What Was Built

  • Custom-coded website
  • 3-pillar service architecture
  • Location-targeted SEO copy
  • Trust-signal & FAQ system
  • Quote intake flow
  • On-page + technical SEO
