Identify What Is Limiting Your Search Performance

An SEO audit provides a detailed assessment of how your website is performing across search, content and technical SEO.

Web Anatomy conducts professional SEO audits to identify issues affecting organic visibility, crawling, indexing, website performance and content relevance. We analyse the current state of your website, identify opportunities for improvement and provide clear recommendations based on the areas most likely to influence search performance.

Our audits can focus on a specific part of your SEO strategy or provide a comprehensive assessment of your website across technical SEO, on-page optimisation, search visibility and authority.

On-page SEO Audit

An on-page SEO audit examines how effectively the content and structure of your website support organic search visibility. We review your important pages against search intent, keyword targeting, content quality, headings, metadata, internal linking and topical relevance. The objective isn't simply to generate an SEO score. We identify where pages can be improved, where content opportunities are being missed and how your existing website can better target the searches relevant to your business.

Off-Site SEO Audit

Your website's authority extends beyond the content published on your own domain. Our off-page SEO audit analyses the external signals contributing to your online authority, including backlinks, referring domains, citations, brand mentions and relevant competitive signals. We assess the quality and relevance of your existing backlink profile while identifying potential authority gaps between your website and competitors.

Technical SEO Audit

A technically strong website provides the foundation for sustainable organic visibility. Our Technical SEO audits analyse how effectively search engines can access, crawl, render, understand and index your website. We investigate areas including crawlability, indexing, website architecture, Core Web Vitals, mobile performance, structured data, redirects, canonicalisation, XML sitemaps and technical errors. The audit identifies technical problems and prioritises improvements according to their potential impact on search and website performance.

SEO Audit Key Factors

Every website is different, which means every SEO audit needs to consider the specific website, market and search environment.

Depending on the scope of the audit, Web Anatomy can assess the following core areas.

Keyword Visibility

We analyse the keywords and search queries already generating visibility for your website and identify opportunities where rankings, landing pages or keyword targeting can be strengthened.

This can include competitor keyword analysis, ranking opportunities, search intent and areas where your website has visibility but isn’t yet performing at its potential.

Content

Content is assessed for search intent, relevance, topical depth, structure, headings, internal linking and optimisation.

We also identify content gaps where additional pages or resources could strengthen topical authority and expand organic search visibility.

Authority & Backlinks

We analyse external links and referring domains to understand the authority signals surrounding your website.

Where relevant, we compare these signals against competitors to identify gaps and potential opportunities for authority development.

Mobile Friendliness

Search and website experiences are increasingly mobile-first.

We assess mobile usability and performance to identify problems that could make pages difficult to navigate, interact with or access effectively on mobile devices.

Page Speed & Core Web Vitals

Website performance can influence both user experience and organic search performance.

We analyse loading behaviour and Core Web Vitals, including Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), Interaction to Next Paint (INP) and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS), alongside other performance issues affecting important pages.

 

Crawling & Indexing

We assess whether search engines can efficiently discover and index the pages that matter.

This includes reviewing robots directives, XML sitemaps, canonical tags, redirects, internal linking, indexation and Google Search Console data.

 

Website Architecture

Website structure becomes increasingly important as a website grows.

We analyse navigation, page hierarchy, URL structure and internal relationships to determine whether users and search engines can efficiently understand and navigate your content.

GEO & AI Search Readiness

SEO audits can also assess how well your website is positioned for the evolving AI-powered search landscape.

This can include content structure, entity signals, structured data, topical authority, technical accessibility and existing AI search visibility.
