SEO AUDIT · TECHNICAL SEO · AI SEARCH
SEO audit service.
Find what holds your site back.
Get an evidence-based review of your website’s technical health, key pages, competitors and AI search visibility, and a prioritised list of what to fix first.
An SEO audit reviews how search engines crawl and index a website, how well its key pages answer buyers, who outranks it and how it appears in AI search, then turns the findings into a prioritised action plan. Maksut’s SEO and AI visibility audit costs £1,500–£2,500 and ends with a walkthrough of the findings.
Done by the person who reports it, not a tool.

WHAT THE AUDIT CHECKS
Four areas.
One prioritised list.
Most audits stop at a technical crawl. This one also asks whether your key pages answer the questions buyers search for, and why competitors appear instead of you.
Do your pages answer buyers?
Service, product and category pages reviewed against the searches and questions that bring customers: titles, headings, content gaps and calls to action.
Who ranks instead of you?
The pages that outrank you for your priority searches, what they cover that you do not, and which gaps are realistic to close.
How do AI answers describe you?
A defined sample of buyer questions in Google AI features and ChatGPT search: whether you are mentioned, which sources are cited and what is missing or wrong.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE
A report you can act on.
Not just a score.
Every finding comes with the evidence behind it, so your team or developer can check it and act on it without guessing.
Summary of the main problems
What is holding the site back, in plain language, and what it is likely costing you.
Findings with evidence
Affected URLs, Search Console and crawl data, screenshots and the AI answers sampled, with the date and method recorded.
Prioritised action plan
Fixes ranked by likely impact and effort, split into technical tasks for a developer and content tasks for your team.
Walkthrough call
We go through the findings together and agree what to do first. An implementation quote is optional.

BEFORE YOU BOOK
SEO audit
questions, answered.
Cost, scope, timing and what happens after the report.
How much does an SEO audit cost?
Maksut’s SEO and AI visibility audit costs £1,500–£2,500, depending on the size of the site, the number of priority pages and how many buyer questions and competitors are reviewed. Published UK audit prices range from a few hundred pounds for an automated report to several thousand for a deep review; compare what is checked by a person, not the headline price.
What does an SEO audit include?
Technical SEO (crawling, indexing, rendering, speed, structured data), the content and internal links of your commercial pages, the competitors and pages that outrank you, and a defined sample of AI search answers. You receive the evidence behind each finding, a prioritised action plan and a walkthrough call.
How long does an SEO audit take?
It depends on the size of the site and how quickly access to Search Console and analytics is available. The proposal confirms the timeline before work starts, and the report is delivered with a walkthrough rather than as a file to decode alone.
Can ChatGPT do an SEO audit?
ChatGPT can explain SEO concepts and review text you paste in, but it cannot crawl your whole site, read your Search Console data or check how Google renders your pages unless you give it that data. A useful audit combines crawl data, search data, analytics and a person who checks what the numbers mean for your business.
Is a free SEO audit tool enough?
A free tool is a good first check for obvious technical problems. It cannot judge whether your service pages answer the questions buyers ask, why a competitor outranks you or which fix is worth paying for first. Start with the free checkers on this site if you are unsure, then decide whether a full audit is needed.
Do you implement the fixes after the audit?
You can. The audit is a standalone deliverable your own team or developer can use. If you want me to make the changes, implementation is quoted separately, and on WordPress and WooCommerce sites I can do the work directly.
Do you audit WordPress and WooCommerce sites?
Yes, and other platforms too. On WordPress and WooCommerce the review can go further into themes, plugins, templates and performance, because I build and maintain those sites as well.
What access do you need?
Read access to Google Search Console and analytics is the most useful. Access to the website or hosting is only needed if you want server-level or implementation checks. Access is agreed in writing and can be removed when the audit ends.
Do you guarantee rankings after the audit?
No. Google decides rankings, and no one can guarantee a first-page or number-one position. The audit shows what is holding your site back and what to fix first; the results depend on how and when the changes are made.
