  • Thorough assessment of existing content.

    We take a holistic look at your existing website content. We look at it from the perspective of Search Engines and visitors, so you know exactly where your content stands, what you’ve done exactly right, and what needs to be improved. Remember, SEO is all about doing as many things right as possible – and this includes your web page content.

  • SEO content guidelines for your in-house writers.

    There’s a lot that a website content audit considers. We can consult on meta data creation, cross-linking, keyword integration, URL structure and more to make sure any new content your team creates is SEO ready – saving you time and money in the future. We’ll also show you how to improve your SEO content so it can gain synergies with other digital marketing like Paid Search and Social Media.

  • Identification of content gaps hurting your SEO efforts.

    The reason for your lack of rankings or lack of conversions could be major gaps in your web page content. Maybe your website doesn’t include the keyword topics people are actually searching for so you are missing out on potential rankings and traffic. Or maybe your website is missing the crucial information site visitors need to make a decision.

  • Opportunities for content improvements to power your Digital Marketing Strategy.

    Real value. It’s what you want your website content audit to reveal and improve upon. There are always ways you can increase the value of your website content for the purpose of SEO.

WHAT WE LOOK AT

SEO Website Content Audit Key Factors

Content Quality

Google requires websites to write web page content primarily for users and not search engines. Quality content is unique, valuable, and engaging – content that stands out from all competitors.

Engagement

As an outsider, we are unbiased when doing your website content audit. We are reading your web page content for the first time, the same way most of your visitors are. Does the content provide meaningful insights and useful information?

SEO Meta Data

Meta data is one of the most basic aspects of website content. We look at whether your site content has engaging meta titles and meta descriptions that are keyword optimized and also enticing and click worthy.

Keyword Usage

We first need to understand your overall marketing goals and where you want to pinpoint your efforts. We can then evaluate whether your website content includes relevant keywords that people are actually searching for.

Duplication Issues

SEO requires 100% original text content that exists on only on one page of your website. We look for any duplication issues (purposely or inadvertently) caused by yourself or competitors who may be using your content.

Current Performance

It’s very valuable to see what website content is actually delivering the most traffic to your website. What pages attract the most conversions and engage visitors the longest?

Content Organization

A website content audit will uncover how well your page content is organized in terms of navigation, URL structure, internal linking, and more. It’s important to access your content and evaluate it just as your visitors would.

Content Presentation

Is your website content presented in a way that is easy to skim and digest? We are looking for all opportunities to help break up the text and make the content more engaging – from bullets, to images, media, headings, and so on.
