Additional Technical Site Audit Steps To Further Your SEO Performance

In our previous blogs, we have established that conducting a technical site audit is the core step in finding the weak points of a website’s marketing and link building strategy before any action steps can be taken to improve its overall performance. This is a practice most SEO agencies and consultants would conduct before fully committing to a partnership with a company or business.

This is a practice performed monthly by Neovora for its clients to check three things: 1) the client’s company is heading the right direction with its campaign efforts, 2) the website is fully optimized to rise up in the SERP ranking, and 3) all business goals are eventually achieved. With an in-depth site audit, you will know where your website stands in terms of branding and online presence.

The Final 3 In 2017 Technical Audit

“Carrying out a technical audit of a website is one of the most important things you need to do to improve a websites overall growth. It is done in order to make a website flawless and more search engine friendly. The ultimate aim of carrying out SEO technical audit is to highlight strong and weak points of a website,” this is according to an excerpt taken from cartoozo.com.

Have you been wondering what marketing strategies have an appeal to your target audience? Do you know what type of content is setting your site apart from the rest? Just how can you land a good spot in the results page and keep that spot while you build authority links? You need to perform these type of audits to get better results.

Link Analysis

Most search engines, especially those with the big guns like Google, often modify their search algorithms from time to time to continuously improve the search navigation experience of the users. And so, websites are expected to keep up with every algorithm update to avoid getting penalized while improving the user experience.

The main goal here is to determine the strengths and weaknesses of your link profile. There are few different link factors to watch out for.

Link relevancy. Are the backlinks hitting the website relevant? Link relevancy is the ruler when it comes to link building. Backlinks shouldn’t be a 100% relevant to the site, but the majority should be.

Link diversity. For a more natural looking link profile diversify your backlinks. These type of links include directory, resource page, niche profile, forums, and relevant blog comments.

Link Authority. Authority links can bring in good juices to your site. The higher the DAs and PAs are, the better it is for your site. Sometimes, pure authority websites can overpower relevant links.

User Experience Analysis

You’ll never know what your users think about the usability of your website. However, you can verify their user experience through several indicators based on the data inside Google Analytics.

Bounce rate. “It is the percentage of single visits (or web sessions). It is the number of visits in which a person leaves your website from the landing page without browsing any further,” a quote taken from an online article.

Exit pages. Identify which pages user leave the most. By knowing which page are making them leave, you can start fixing the site where it is needed the most.

Visitor return. This one is a strong indicator that your site holds content worth checking and user experience is positively favorable. Return visitors will give you more opportunity to convert them into leads or email subscribers.

Citation Analysis

This last step in technical site audit is to mainly check the consistency of your website’s NAP (name, address, phone number) across the internet. To obtain NAP consistency on all online properties, check out online business directories to submit your business’ official NAP information.

When the technical site audit is done and all the contributing factors are analyzed, you will have a better overview on how to promote your website based on your strong and weak points. Internet marketing service companies such as Neovora often conduct monthly site audit to gauge the improvement of a website and how far is it from achieving its targets.
