Technical SEO Service That Removes What Is Blocking Your Rankings
A technical SEO service that fixes crawling, indexing, Core Web Vitals, structured data and site architecture, so the content and local signals you already have can actually count.
Search Console is where technical problems show up first, and where fixes are verified.
Does this sound familiar
Most people search for this because something already broke
You rarely go looking for technical SEO in the abstract. You go looking because a page vanished, traffic dropped, or the site feels slow. Here is what usually sits behind each of those.
Pages are live but missing from Google
Usual cause: Blocked in robots.txt, marked noindex, orphaned with no internal links, or the canonical points somewhere else.
The site is slow, especially on phones
Usual cause: Unoptimised images, render-blocking scripts, layout that shifts while loading. Core Web Vitals fail and mobile users leave first.
Traffic fell without a content change
Usual cause: A migration broke redirects, a plugin changed output sitewide, or duplicate URLs started competing with each other.
Rich results never appear
Usual cause: Structured data missing, invalid, or describing something the page does not visibly contain.
What is covered
Six areas, worked in order of impact
Crawling and indexing come first, because nothing else matters until your pages are eligible to rank at all.
Crawling & indexing
Making sure Google can reach every page you want ranked, and none you do not.
robots.txt and meta robots audit
XML sitemap accuracy and coverage
Index bloat and orphan page detection
Search Console coverage error resolution
Core Web Vitals & speed
Fixing what actually moves LCP, CLS and INP rather than chasing a score.
Largest Contentful Paint diagnosis
Layout shift and render-blocking fixes
Image format, sizing and lazy loading
JavaScript and CSS payload reduction
Site architecture & redirects
So authority flows to the pages that should rank, and nothing is stranded.

How it runs
Diagnose, fix, then prove it cleared
Technical work is verifiable in a way most SEO is not. Errors either clear in Search Console or they do not.
Crawl data shows what a search engine actually encounters, which is rarely what the CMS reports.
01
Crawl & audit
Full crawl of the site plus Search Console analysis, producing a list of faults ordered by impact rather than by severity label.
02
Prioritise
Separate what blocks indexing from what merely tidies. Blockers first, because nothing else counts until pages are eligible.
03
Fix or specify
Implement the changes directly, or write a developer-ready specification with exact instructions if you have an in-house team.
04
Validate
Re-crawl, re-test rendering, validate structured data, and confirm in Search Console that the errors actually cleared.
05
Monitor
Periodic checks, because redirects break and sites accumulate faults as they grow. Regressions get caught before they cost traffic.
Where it fits
Technical SEO is a floor, not a growth lever
Worth being straight about this. Technical work removes ceilings. It does not create demand. If your foundations are already sound, the gains come from elsewhere, and you should be told that rather than sold an audit.
Pairs with Local SEO
Google reads the site behind your Business Profile. Crawl errors and slow mobile performance weaken the profile they support.
Technical work is not bought in monthly service levels. It is bought as a diagnosis, a project, or ongoing maintenance. Pick the one that matches where you actually are.
Technical Audit
From $299one-off
You suspect something is wrong but do not know what
A full diagnosis with no implementation. You get the fault list and the order to fix it in, whether you use me or your own developer.
Full site crawl and Search Console analysis
Crawling and indexing fault list
Core Web Vitals diagnosis with named causes
Structured data validation
Redirect, canonical and duplicate URL check
Mobile rendering and content parity check
Findings ordered by impact, not severity label
You receive
Prioritised fix list plus a developer-ready specification
Project and retainer pricing depends on site size, how many faults the audit surfaces, and whether you want the fixes applied or specified for your own developer. That is why they are quoted after the audit rather than before. No lock-in contracts on the retainer.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know About Technical SEO
What is technical SEO, in plain terms?
Technical SEO is the work that lets search engines reach, read and trust your website. Crawling, indexing, site speed, mobile rendering, structured data, redirects and site architecture. It does not write your content or build your reputation; it removes the obstacles stopping both from counting.
How do I know if I need technical SEO?
Common signals: pages missing from Google despite being live, traffic that fell without a content change, a slow or unstable site on mobile, duplicate versions of the same page ranking against each other, or Search Console reporting coverage errors you do not understand.
Is technical SEO a one-off project or ongoing?
Mostly a project, then maintenance. The audit and the fixes are finite work. After that it needs periodic checks, because redirects break, plugins change output, and sites accumulate faults as they grow.
Will technical SEO alone increase my rankings?
Rarely on its own. Technical work removes ceilings rather than creating demand. If crawling and indexing are broken it can produce a sharp gain, because pages that were invisible become eligible. If the foundations are already sound, the gain comes from content and local signals instead.
Do you fix the issues or just report them?
Both are available. Some clients want the fixes implemented directly, others have a developer and want a prioritised specification they can hand over. Say which you need and the engagement is scoped that way.
Will you need access to my website and hosting?
For implementation, yes: CMS access at minimum, and often hosting or DNS depending on what needs changing. For an audit alone, Search Console and a crawl of the public site are usually enough.
How does this relate to Local SEO?
Google reads the website linked from your Business Profile to judge relevance and trust. A site with crawl errors, slow mobile performance or missing structured data weakens the profile it supports, which is why technical work sits underneath the local work rather than beside it.
How much does technical SEO cost?
It is bought three ways. A technical audit starts from $299 and gives you the fault list and a developer-ready specification. Implementation as a one-off project, and an ongoing retainer for monitoring, are both quoted after the audit, because site size and the number of faults found decide the work.
