Technical SEO FAQs answer common questions about crawlability, indexation, redirects, schema, Core Web Vitals, site structure and technical site health.
This section is designed for businesses that need a clearer understanding of the technical issues that may affect rankings, visibility, user experience and enquiry performance.
For a full overview of the service, see our Technical SEO.
Technical SEO focuses on the foundations that help search engines access, crawl, understand and rank your website. A technically weak site can limit growth even when the content, design or marketing activity looks strong on the surface.
The work can include crawl checks, indexation review, redirects, canonical signals, internal linking, structured data, sitemap checks, robots.txt review, Core Web Vitals, CMS limitations and developer-ready recommendations. Where deeper UX, tracking or conversion issues are present, this can also connect with a Ghost Hunter Audit or Conversion Reality Check.
Questions and answers
Open each question below for a clear, practical answer.
A Technical SEO audit reviews the parts of a website that affect crawling, indexing, site structure, performance and how easily search engines can understand the site.
This can include crawl errors, index coverage, redirects, canonical tags, internal linking, structured data, page speed, Core Web Vitals, sitemap setup, robots.txt, duplicate content signals and technical barriers that may affect rankings or enquiries.
Yes. We can work alongside your developer, web agency or existing SEO provider by supplying clear technical findings, priorities and implementation notes.
The aim is to make the issues easy to understand and practical to fix, so developers know what needs changing and why it matters.
Yes. A site can rank well and still have technical issues that reduce crawl efficiency, slow growth or create risk during updates, redesigns or migrations.
Technical SEO helps protect existing visibility and identify problems before they become larger ranking, indexing or conversion issues.
Most Technical SEO audits take around 5 to 10 working days, depending on website size, platform access and the complexity of the issues being reviewed.
Larger ecommerce websites, multi-location sites, migration checks or complex CMS setups may need more time.
The service is usually audit-led, meaning we identify technical issues, prioritise them and provide clear recommendations for implementation.
Where suitable, selected fixes may be supported directly, but many changes are best handled by your developer, hosting provider or web agency, especially where code, server or CMS access is required.
Yes. Schema validation and Core Web Vitals checks can be included as part of the Technical SEO review.
The audit looks for structured data errors, missing schema opportunities, performance bottlenecks, render-blocking elements, mobile usability issues and page type patterns that may affect crawlability, visibility or user experience.
If your CMS, theme, plugin setup or hosting limits what can be fixed, we will document the restriction and recommend the most practical next steps.
This may include alternative fixes, developer notes, hosting recommendations, plugin changes or a phased plan where immediate improvements are possible but deeper changes need wider development work.
Yes. Once your developer applies the recommended changes, we can review the implementation and confirm whether the original issues appear to be resolved.
Post-fix validation can also check whether any new crawl, indexation, redirect, schema or performance issues have been introduced during the update.
Find and prioritise the technical issues that may be affecting crawlability, indexation, site structure and long-term search performance.
