What the audit covers

Ten areas. Zero guesswork.

A BridgeCity technical SEO audit is not a checklist of generic recommendations. Every finding is specific to your site, with clear context on why it matters and what fixing it will accomplish.

01

Crawlability and Indexation

Review of your robots.txt, XML sitemaps, crawl budget, and indexation status. Identifies pages being blocked, excluded, or improperly indexed: the most common root cause of organic underperformance.

02

Site Architecture and Internal Linking

Analysis of how your site is structured and how link equity flows through it. Flat, logical architecture with strong internal linking is foundational to both rankings and GEO visibility.

03

Core Web Vitals and Page Experience

Assessment of LCP, CLS, and INP scores across key pages. Page experience signals are a confirmed Google ranking factor, and slow pages lose visitors before they convert.

04

On-Page Technical Signals

Review of title tags, meta descriptions, heading structure, canonical tags, hreflang (if applicable), and duplicate content issues across your key pages.

05

Structured Data and Schema Markup

Audit of your existing schema implementation for errors, missing markup types, and opportunities. Structured data directly influences featured snippets, rich results, and AI understanding of your content.

06

Mobile and Rendering

Mobile-first indexing compliance review, JavaScript rendering assessment, and device-specific experience evaluation. What Googlebot cannot render, it cannot rank.

07

HTTPS and Security Signals

SSL certificate status, mixed content issues, redirect chains, and security header review. Trust signals that affect both rankings and user conversion.

08

Redirect Health

Full audit of redirect chains, loops, and broken links. Redirect issues silently drain link equity and create poor user experiences that compound over time.

09

Log File and Crawl Data Analysis

Where available, analysis of server logs to see exactly how Googlebot and other crawlers are interacting with your site: what they visit, how often, and where they stop.

10

AI Bot Accessibility and GEO Readiness

Review of how AI crawlers (including GPTBot, Perplexity, and others) are accessing your site. Most technical SEO audits ignore this entirely. BridgeCity does not.

What you receive

A report you can actually act on.

Most technical SEO audits produce a long list of issues with no context about which ones actually matter. BridgeCity audits are structured around impact and effort – so you know exactly what to fix first, what to schedule, and what to monitor.

Every finding is documented with the specific issue, the reason it matters for organic search performance, and a clear remediation recommendation. Nothing generic, nothing theoretical.

What most audits miss

AI readiness is now part of technical SEO.

Search has expanded beyond traditional crawlers. AI tools including ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI systems have their own bots, their own crawl patterns, and their own signals for determining which content is trustworthy enough to cite. A technical SEO audit that ignores these is already incomplete.

BridgeCity’s technical AI readiness audit reviews how your site is currently indexed, rendered, and understood by AI systems – and identifies the technical changes that will improve your visibility in both traditional organic results and generative search answers.

AI bot accessibility

Review of whether GPTBot, Perplexity, Claude, and other AI crawlers can access and index your site – and whether you are inadvertently blocking them.

Schema for LLMs

Structured data implementation review with specific attention to the schema types that help language models correctly understand your brand, services, and expertise.

Content discoverability

Assessment of whether your most valuable content is in a format that AI tools can read, parse, and reference – including rendering, pagination, and content structure issues.

Who this is for

A technical SEO audit makes sense if…

Your traffic has dropped

Algorithm updates often expose pre-existing technical issues. If you have seen unexplained organic traffic declines, a technical audit is the most reliable way to identify the cause.

You are launching or migrating

Site relaunches and platform migrations are the highest-risk moments for organic search. A pre- and post-launch technical audit prevents the losses that typically follow a poorly planned migration.

Your content is not ranking

Good content that does not rank is often a technical problem, not a content problem. Crawl issues, indexation errors, and site speed problems can suppress rankings regardless of content quality.

You have never had a real audit

Many growing businesses have never had a thorough technical SEO audit. Untreated technical issues compound over time and become harder to separate from other performance factors.

You want a starting point

If you are considering an SEO retainer with BridgeCity, a technical audit is available as the starting point for a Growth or Partner engagement, establishing a clear baseline before strategy work begins.

You are invisible in AI search

If your brand is not showing up in ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews, technical accessibility is often a contributing factor. Our AI readiness review identifies exactly where the barriers are.
