SEO basics

SEO audit

Also known as: SEO audit

A review of website technical elements, content, links, and visibility, resulting in recommended changes.

A practical example

An audit identifies broken redirects and missing descriptions for key categories.

What should I know?

An error list without impact assessment and an action plan is not very useful.

SEO basics in practice

First define the customer's need and the page's purpose. Then check whether the website is accessible, understandable, and useful. Assess results within a defined scope rather than treating one ranking as a picture of the whole business.
