Step 01

URL Intake

  • Pages in scope

    Confirm the priority URLs, page types, templates, and site sections that the audit should cover.

  • Platform and setup

    Note the CMS, hosting environment, plugins, and technical dependencies that could affect how the site is crawled or fixed.

  • Current indexing setup

    Review the sitemap, robots.txt rules, canonical tags, and any indexing problems you already know about before the deeper analysis begins.

Step 02

Crawl Site

  • Indexability review

    Inspect status codes, meta robots, canonicals, and directives that control whether pages can be crawled and indexed.

  • Structure mapping

    Map internal links, crawl depth, orphan pages, redirect chains, and duplicate paths across the site.

  • Template patterns

    Compare repeated technical issues across templates so recurring problems can be fixed at the source.

Step 03

Find Issues

  • Crawl blockers

    Identify blocked resources, broken links, redirect waste, and technical barriers that limit efficient crawling.

  • Indexation conflicts

    Spot duplicate URLs, conflicting canonicals, thin archive pages, and pages sending mixed indexing signals.

  • Rendering concerns

    Review JavaScript, assets, and template behavior that may prevent search engines from seeing important content correctly.

Step 04

Action Plan

  • Priority fixes

    Organize recommendations by business impact, technical severity, and how quickly the improvement can be deployed.

  • Implementation order

    Sequence tasks by dependency so foundational issues are fixed before downstream optimizations are applied.

  • Delivery notes

    Prepare clear action items for developers, content owners, or stakeholders responsible for execution.

Step 05

Approval

  • Stakeholder review

    Walk through findings and explain why the recommended changes matter for crawling, indexing, and site health.

  • Scope alignment

    Confirm what will be implemented now, what needs staging, and what should be deferred based on business priorities.

  • Risk checks

    Review rollout considerations so technical fixes do not conflict with publishing, design, or development constraints.

Step 06

Implement

  • Technical updates

    Apply redirects, canonical updates, robots rules, metadata fixes, and template-level corrections where needed.

  • Validation

    Recheck affected pages after changes go live to confirm the intended signals are now present and working properly.

  • Handoff support

    Provide implementation notes or follow-up guidance when development teams are handling the final deployment.
