Optimised meta details can dramatically boost visibility and attract more clicks. Acting as your digital storefront, they entice potential visitors with a compelling glimpse into your content.

What should I expect from a Technical SEO project?
Technical SEO is a vital component of a comprehensive SEO strategy. By ensuring your website is technically sound, you’re setting the stage for successful content optimisation, user engagement, and ultimately, higher search engine rankings.
Before starting any work, a thorough site audit will be conducted on the site to highlight any critical errors, moderate warnings and minor notices that may be impacting your website. This will be produced as a percentage score out of 100%.
Following the audit, we will periodically tackle each issue highlighted in the audit. Starting with the most critical and working down to the more minor issues. Once all work has been completed, you will receive a comparative report showing the list of improvements and your final site health score. We aim for a site health score of 90%+ on every site we audit.
What’s next after my Technical SEO has been improved?
Once your Technical SEO has been improved, the foundations are set to begin optimising your content and improving your pages.Â
At SearchWave, we like to move onto the On-Page SEO changes necessary to really impress your users and commit them to make a purchase or send an enquiry. This will include a mix of cosmetic improvements, as well as making sure your content is rich in targeted keywords.
Technical SEO is the process of optimising the technical “backend” aspects of a website to improve its visibility in search engine results. It involves enhancing the site’s structure, making it easier for search engines to crawl and index content.
Technical SEO is crucial in helping search engines access, crawl, interpret, and index your website without any issues. It’s the foundation that allows your content and keywords to be valued and ranked.
It’s advisable to conduct a technical SEO audit at least twice a year. However, if you frequently update your site or implement new features, more regular audits may be necessary to identify and fix issues promptly.
Site speed is one of hundreds of ranking factors for search engines like Google. Faster loading times improve user experience by displaying the content users are looking for instantly, as a result, reducing your bounce rate.
If you can show your users the information quickly and efficiently, this can give Google greater trust in promoting your site higher in search results.
Mobile-friendliness refers to how well your website functions on mobile devices. With the increasing use of smartphones for web browsing, search engines prioritise mobile-friendly websites in their rankings.
It is suggested that over 55% of all internet users view webpages on a mobile device.Â
While basic technical issues can be handled by someone with general web management skills, complex issues and optimisations often require the expertise of a professional.
Hiring someone with technical SEO expertise can ensure your site is fully optimised and can effectively compete in search engine rankings moving forward.
Technical SEO lays the groundwork for every other SEO effort. Without a technically sound website, on-page and off-page SEO strategies (like content and link building) won’t be as effective.
All types of SEO work together to improve your site’s visibility and rankings however, without a high standard of technical optimisation, it can be difficult to get your site to rank well.
As you can imagine, all sites are built differently, with different volumes of content and pages. For this reason, it can be difficult to provide an exact answer.
Technical SEO can either be paid on a ‘per project’ or ‘per hour’ basis. Depending on your requirements and budget either option may be beneficial for you.
