You may recognise this

The sentences we hear most often from owners who call us.

If you recognise yourself in one of these sentences, the audit gives you the honest answer.

“

"My competitor ranks higher on Google. Nobody can explain to me why."

“

"I put money into advertising. The enquiries never came."

“

"An agency wanted a monthly fee. A few reports arrived and no enquiries."

“

"My website was built seven years ago. I know something is not right."

Honestly

Not every website needs an audit today.

We tell you beforehand whether it is worth it for you. Here are the two lists.

Worth it if

  • You have never checked in the past two years what bothers Google about your website.
  • Your traffic has dropped inexplicably over the past few months.
  • You have put money into Google Ads and the enquiries did not come.
  • You have just launched a new website and want to know whether it is technically clean.
  • You want to sell your website or show it to an investor.

Less worth it if

  • You are planning a complete rebuild of your website in the next four weeks.
  • You already had an audit done in the past three months.
  • You have fewer than five subpages and no plans to grow.

In those cases, write to us. Sometimes our answer is: wait another three months.

Included in the audit

Seven categories, weighted into the overall score.

Each category enters the overall score with its own weight. That way you see immediately where a fix earns the most points.

01
22 %

Technical SEO

We check crawlability, indexing, robots.txt and sitemap.xml. Plus security headers, redirect chains and canonical URLs, with live requests against your server.

02
23 %

Content quality and E-E-A-T

We rate every page individually against Google E-E-A-T framework. Word count, thin content, author profiles and trust signals enter the overall score with the highest weight.

03
20 %

On-page SEO and SXO

We analyse your current Google positions and rate your pages from the user point of view. We check title tags, H1 to H3 and meta descriptions URL by URL.

04
10 %

Schema and structured data

We validate every JSON-LD block against schema.org. We check types such as Organization, LocalBusiness and BreadcrumbList for @id collisions and missing properties.

05
10 %

Performance and Core Web Vitals

We measure LCP, CLS and INP. These three values feed directly into the Google ranking. We also check image optimisation, lazy loading and caching behaviour.

06
10 %

AI search readiness

We check whether ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity know your site and can cite it. llms.txt, AI crawler access and how citable your content is are part of the audit.

07
5 %

Images and media

We check WebP and AVIF delivery, alt text and fetchPriority on LCP images. We document file size against display size for each image.

Why this pays off for small companies too

One check instead of a monthly fee.

One report instead of a monthly fee

An SEO agency ties you to a monthly fee, often with a minimum term. Your first audit covers every topic in one report and costs you nothing. You then know concretely what needs doing and can decide for yourself what to handle in house and what to hand over.

Useful from five subpages upwards

A small website can have just as many problems as a large one. Some are even easier to fix, because fewer places are affected.

One new order a year is enough.

If a better ranking wins you just one additional order per year, the report has paid for itself five to twenty times over. With most of our clients it is considerably more.

FAQ

What else you might want to know.

What happens after I sign up?+
You get a confirmation email immediately. We start the audit automatically and deliver the report by email within one working day. You do not have to do or supply anything in between.
Is it worth it for a small website?+
Yes. A small website can have just as many problems as a large one. We have built the audit so that it makes sense from five subpages upwards. If you are unsure, send us a short email with your address first. We will tell you whether it is worth it for you.
What makes your audit different from free tools such as PageSpeed Insights?+
Free tools give you raw data. Afterwards you know that your LCP is 3.4 seconds. What you do not know is what that means, what it costs and what to do about it. We deliver both: the raw data and the translation into business decisions, sorted by priority.
Do I need technical knowledge to use the report?+
No. We write up every problem so that you can either fix it yourself or brief a provider precisely. For each action we supply code snippets ready to drop in, in case you want to do it yourself.
What is the difference between an SEO audit and a GEO audit?+
The SEO audit examines Google. The GEO audit examines whether ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity know your brand and cite it in answers. A study of 75,000 brands shows that ranking well on Google often still does not mean ranking well in AI search. If you are unsure which you need first, take the full assessment, which covers SEO, SEA, GEO and AEO together.
What if the audit shows that everything is fine?+
The report is valuable then too: you have it in black and white that your website is clean and can raise your advertising budget with a clear conscience. In most audits, though, we find at least 15 opportunities to improve, often on websites that have already been optimised.
Why is the first audit free?+
Because we keep working with the findings: we use them as a case study and as a reference, and you agree to that explicitly when you sign up. Without that consent we cannot offer the audit free of charge; in that case just write to us and we will find another way.
Can you also carry out the measures from the report?+
Yes. We do that by the hour or at a fixed price. You are under no obligation, though. The report is written so that any other web developer can carry out the measures.

In one working day you will know what your website gets right. And what it does not.

Your first audit is free. No subscription, no follow-up costs, no call afterwards.
