Audit, Analysis & Strategy

During the Foundation Sprint, we assess every aspect of your site and off-page factors determining the campaign’s success.

  • Deep Data Analysis: Ensuring no technical glitches mar your SEO efforts and setting up precise tracking for campaign results. Deep inspection of GA+GTM, GSC, backlink profile and more.
  • Competitor Analysis: Investigating your industry, SERP market share, and adopting successful strategies from industry leaders to optimise your search engine rankings.
  • Website Quality Audit: Identifying technical roadblocks, low-quality content, and underperforming pages.
  • SEO Roadmap: Delivering a clear and concise plan of action based on our insights and recommendations to maximise your organic growth.

What's Included

Roadmap to a successful SEO campaign

Website Quality Audit

This is a deep health and quality check of your website. We leave no stone unturned. Every indexed page will be audited for technical issues and content quality. This is about looking for roadblocks that will hinder the campaign if left unchecked.

What we look at:

  • Google Analytics data for each page
  • Google Search Console data for each page
  • A complete site crawl of all accessible pages
  • Technical site audit to look for technical errors
  • Current ranking keywords and which pages they correspond to
  • All active backlinks and where they are pointing
  • Manual audit of content on each page

We aggregate this data using our in-house tool to create an in-depth plan for each an every page on your site. This allows us to plan which pages to focus on, what gaps you have in your content, and what technical issues must be addressed.

Google Analytics Audit

We audit your Google Analytics & Google Tag Manager to ensure that you are properly tracking events and conversions. This ensures you have the data you need to monitor the process of your campaign.

Keyword Analysis & Content Strategy

This is not an exhaustive keyword analysis but rather an assessment of the current position. We use this to build a content strategy to target any keyword gaps. We use data from competitors, market trends and user intent to build a plan to give your site topical authority.

Link Assessment & Strategy

We look at your current link profile to see if any backlinks may cause issues. Once your existing backlink profile is checked, we will build a strategy for the link building campaign that will follow the foundation sprint.

Complete Roadmap

You will then be presented with a detailed roadmap, including each step you need to take to get your site to the position you want. The strategy does not tie you to us. Each action is laid out so you can have your in-house team handle it or assign it to us.

The Foundation is completed over a 3 week period.

Please note the cost of the Foundation Sprint does not include the resolution of the issues found.

SEO FAQs

No, the foundation strategy creates a strategy & list of immediate actions that you can take away and implement in-house, or we can do it for you for a separate cost.

Typically, yes. If compared side by side, you will save money by paying for exactly what you need and no more.

Without a strategy, it is a game of guessing. The strategy doesn’t just help plan out the campaign over a 12-month period. During the strategy phase, we also look into all elements that could hold the campaign back.

So many SEO agencies will stick to a retainer with monthly site audits, and by month 6, the most fundamental issues will still not be solved. We have seen this time and time again.

It is important to get the on-page issues out of the way before content marketing and link building begins. You do not need monthly site audits unless your site has a vast amount of changes on a weekly basis.

By addressing the strategy and roadblocks early on, they can be detected and solved within the first weeks of the campaign. You don’t need to pay for unneeded audits each month of your campaign. Overall, this reduces costs and allows you to see faster results.

 

Typically, yes.

If compared side by side, you will save money by paying for exactly what you need and no more.

Monthly retainers are still desirable for many projects, but we still adapt to focus on precisely what needs to be done and cut out all the fluff.
