The Foundation Everything Else Is Built On

Technical SEO is the invisible infrastructure that determines whether search engines can properly crawl, index, and rank your website. Without it, your content and links are fighting with one hand tied behind their back.

What We Do

What Technical SEO Actually Involves

Think of technical SEO as the engineering behind the scenes. Google sends crawlers to your website thousands of times a day, technical SEO ensures those crawlers can access every important page, understand your content, and index it correctly. When the technical foundations are broken, it doesn't matter how good your content is or how many links you've earned. We audit, fix, and continuously monitor over 200 technical factors to make sure nothing is silently holding your rankings back.

Core Web Vitals & Page Speed

Google uses Core Web Vitals as a direct ranking factor. We optimize Largest Contentful Paint, Interaction to Next Paint, and Cumulative Layout Shift, fixing render-blocking resources, compressing images, optimising server response times, and eliminating layout jank.

Crawlability & Indexation

We ensure search engines can access everything they need to, and nothing they shouldn't. Fixing crawl errors, orphan pages, redirect chains, robots.txt misconfigurations, XML sitemap issues, and managing crawl budget allocation.

Schema Markup & Structured Data

JSON-LD structured data implementation, LocalBusiness, Product, FAQ, HowTo, Review, Organization, BreadcrumbList, and Article schema. Proper markup means rich snippets, better visibility, and higher click-through rates.

Mobile-First Indexing

Google indexes and ranks based on your mobile site. We audit responsive behavior, touch targets, viewport configuration, mobile speed, and content parity, ensuring full compliance with mobile-first indexing requirements.

Site Architecture & Internal Linking

How your pages link together directly impacts how authority flows through your site. We optimize URL structures, navigation hierarchy, breadcrumbs, and internal linking patterns so equity reaches your money pages.

HTTPS, Canonicals & Redirects

Mixed content warnings, canonical tags, redirect chains and loops, HTTP/HTTPS inconsistencies, and clean URL resolution. The boring stuff that silently destroys rankings if neglected.

How We Work

Our Approach to Technical SEO

We don't hand you a PDF and wish you luck. Our technical SEO process is hands-on from start to finish, we find the problems, we fix them, and we make sure they stay fixed.

1

Full Technical Crawl & Audit

We crawl your entire website using Screaming Frog, Ahrefs, Google Search Console, and our proprietary tools. Over 200 technical factors are assessed across crawlability, indexation, speed, mobile-friendliness, structured data, security, and architecture. We also run log file analysis to see exactly how Googlebot and AI crawlers interact with your site at server level, not just what tools estimate.

2

Prioritized Roadmap

Issues are ranked by impact × effort, not dumped into a spreadsheet sorted alphabetically. Critical crawl blockers and indexation failures get fixed immediately. Quick wins that improve speed or visibility come next. Lower-priority refinements are scheduled into the ongoing campaign. You'll see the full plan and approve it before we touch anything.

3

Hands-On Implementation

Our team implements fixes directly, working with your developers where needed, or handling everything in-house for WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, and custom builds. Crawl errors, speed optimization, schema implementation, redirect management, sitemap restructuring, hreflang configuration, all done by experienced technical SEO specialists, not juniors reading a guide.

4

Continuous Monitoring

Technical SEO isn't a one-off fix. Websites change, new pages get published, plugins update, developers push code, CMS migrations happen, and Google rolls out algorithm updates. We continuously monitor site health through Gorilla Analytics, Search Console, and automated crawl alerts. We also track AI crawler behavior through our Crawler Intelligence tool, GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, PerplexityBot, ensuring your technical setup supports both traditional search and the AI-powered future.

The Full Picture

What We Audit, Every Technical Factor

This isn't a surface-level scan. We go deep into every technical layer of your website. Here's what gets examined.

Crawl Errors & Status Codes

Every broken page, server error, and soft 404 identified and mapped for resolution.

Redirect Chains & Loops

Multi-hop redirects that dilute link equity and slow crawling. Flattened to single 301s.

Orphan Pages

Pages with no internal links pointing to them, invisible to crawlers and wasting budget.

XML Sitemap Accuracy

Sitemaps validated for indexable, canonical URLs with correct lastmod dates.

Robots.txt Configuration

Verifying crawl directives aren't blocking important content or wasting budget on junk.

Server Response Times

Time To First Byte analysis across regions. Slow servers kill everything downstream.

Image Optimization

Next-gen formats (WebP/AVIF), proper sizing, alt attributes, and native lazy loading.

Render-Blocking Resources

CSS and JavaScript that delay First Contentful Paint. Deferred, async'd, and critical-path inlined.

Cumulative Layout Shift

Unexpected layout movement that tanks CLS scores. Every shift tracked and eliminated.

Interaction to Next Paint

Google's responsiveness metric. Optimized event handlers, reduced main thread blocking.

Duplicate Content

Content duplication across URL variants, parameters, pagination. Canonical tags validated.

Hreflang Tags

Multi-language/region implementation, return tag validation, x-default configuration.

Faceted Navigation

Filter combinations creating crawl traps and duplicate URLs on e-commerce sites.

JavaScript Rendering

Testing how Googlebot renders JS-heavy pages. Content hidden behind CSR that never gets indexed.

Log File Analysis

Raw server logs showing actual Googlebot crawl patterns, frequency, and status codes returned.

Internal Link Depth

Click-depth mapping from homepage, authority bottlenecks, link paths to money pages.

HTTPS & Security Headers

SSL validation, mixed content, HSTS headers, and security configurations affecting trust.

Schema Validation

All structured data tested against Google's Rich Results Test. Missing opportunities identified.

CDN & Hosting Performance

Edge caching, GZIP/Brotli compression, and server-side optimization.

AI Crawler Access

GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, PerplexityBot, access permissions and crawl frequency.

URL Parameter Handling

Search Console parameter config, canonical management for filtered/sorted URLs.

Breadcrumb Structure

Semantic HTML validation, BreadcrumbList schema, navigation patterns for crawlers.

HTTP/2 & HTTP/3 Support

Protocol-level optimization for multiplexed connections and header compression.

Crawl Budget Efficiency

Ensuring Google spends budget on pages that matter, not thin content or infinite scroll traps.

Technical SEO Under the Microscope

For the technically curious, here's a closer look at some of the more complex areas we handle and why they matter more than most agencies realise.

Log File Analysis & Crawl Intelligence

+
Most SEO tools show you estimates of how Google crawls your site. Log file analysis shows you the truth. We analyze raw server access logs to see exactly which pages Googlebot visits, how often, what status codes it receives, and how much of your crawl budget is being wasted on low-value pages. This is where we find the invisible problems, pages Google has stopped crawling entirely, content that gets hit thousands of times but never ranks, and redirect loops that burn budget silently. We also track AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended) at the same level, giving you complete visibility into how both traditional search and AI models interact with your site infrastructure.

JavaScript SEO & Client-Side Rendering

+
Modern websites increasingly rely on JavaScript frameworks, React, Angular, Vue, Next.js, to render content. The problem is that Google's rendering engine doesn't always process JS the same way a browser does, and there can be significant delays between crawling and rendering. Content that depends on client-side JS execution may never get indexed at all. We audit how your pages render in Google's eyes using the URL Inspection API, check for hydration issues, test dynamic rendering solutions, and ensure critical content is available in the initial HTML response. For JS-heavy sites, this single factor can be the difference between ranking and being invisible.

Faceted Navigation & Crawl Traps

+
E-commerce sites with filters (size, color, price, brand) can accidentally generate millions of URL combinations, each one a potential crawl trap that wastes Google's budget and creates duplicate content nightmares. We implement proper canonicalization strategies, configure URL parameter handling, use noindex/nofollow where appropriate, and design crawl paths that guide Google to your category and product pages rather than infinite filter permutations. This is one of the most common and most damaging technical SEO issues we see on e-commerce sites, and most agencies don't even check for it.

Hreflang & International Technical SEO

+
If you target multiple countries or languages, hreflang is non-negotiable, and it's notoriously easy to get wrong. Missing return tags, incorrect language/region codes, conflicting canonicals, and inconsistent URL structures are the most common issues we find. A single broken hreflang implementation can cause Google to show the wrong country version in search results, or worse, cause entire regional pages to be deindexed. We validate every hreflang tag, ensure proper x-default implementation, verify return tag completeness across all regional variants, and test that Google is correctly associating your pages with the right markets. Essential for any business running international SEO campaigns.

Site Migrations & Platform Moves

+
Site migrations are where years of SEO equity go to die, if handled badly. Whether you're moving domains, switching CMS platforms, redesigning URL structures, or consolidating multiple sites, we manage the entire technical migration to protect your rankings. That means comprehensive redirect mapping (every old URL to its new equivalent), pre-migration crawl benchmarking, staged rollout monitoring, post-migration crawl analysis, and rapid response to any indexation issues. We've handled migrations across WordPress, Shopify, Magento, custom builds, and headless CMS architectures. The goal is zero traffic loss, and we have the track record to back that up.

Edge SEO & Server-Level Optimization

+
Sometimes the most impactful technical SEO changes happen at the server or CDN edge layer, before your CMS even gets involved. We implement edge-level redirects for faster execution, deploy dynamic rendering for JavaScript-heavy pages, configure server-side caching strategies, implement Brotli compression, optimize HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 protocol support, and set up edge workers for A/B testing that doesn't impact page speed. For enterprise sites where CMS changes require lengthy dev cycles, edge SEO lets us make critical technical improvements in hours rather than months, directly on Cloudflare, Akamai, Fastly, or AWS CloudFront.
