Technical SEO Services

Technical SEO means fixing the foundation of your website so Google can find, crawl, and rank your pages properly. We handle site speed, mobile optimisation, structured data, and all the technical stuff that makes your site rank better.

What is Technical SEO?

Technical SEO is the foundation that makes everything else work. It's about making sure your website is built in a way that search engines can understand, crawl, and index. If your site has technical issues, no amount of great content will help you rank.

For local businesses, technical SEO is crucial. Local competition is real, and Google rewards sites that are technically sound. If your site is slow, not mobile-friendly, or has crawl errors, you're losing potential customers to competitors who have their technical SEO sorted.

Technical SEO isn't just about fixing problems. It's about building a solid foundation that helps your site rank better, load faster, and provide a better experience for your visitors. We focus on the things that actually move the needle.

Our Technical SEO Services

Site Speed Optimisation

Fast sites rank better. We optimise your site's speed by fixing slow database queries, optimising images, implementing proper caching, and minimising code. Site speed matters because Google uses it as a ranking factor, and slow sites lose visitors.

Mobile Optimisation

Most searches happen on mobile. We make sure your site works perfectly on phones and tablets. That means responsive design, fast mobile load times, and a mobile-friendly experience. Google prioritises mobile-friendly sites, so mobile optimisation is essential.

Crawlability & Indexing

Google needs to be able to crawl and index your site. We fix crawl errors, optimise your robots.txt, create proper XML sitemaps, and ensure Google can access all your important pages. If Google can't crawl your site properly, you won't rank.

Structured Data & Schema Markup

We add structured data (schema markup) to help Google understand your content better. This can help you get rich snippets in search results, which can improve click-through rates. Structured data helps local businesses stand out in search results.

HTTPS & Security

Secure sites rank better. We ensure your site uses HTTPS, has proper SSL certificates, and follows security best practices. Google favours secure sites, and visitors trust them more. Technical SEO includes security because it's part of the foundation.

URL Structure & Internal Linking

Clean URLs and proper internal linking help Google understand your site structure. We optimise your URL structure, fix broken links, and create a logical internal linking structure. This helps Google crawl your site more effectively and understand which pages are most important.

Core Web Vitals Optimisation

Core Web Vitals are Google's metrics for user experience. We optimise for Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Input Delay (FID), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). These metrics directly impact your rankings, and we optimise all three.

Technical SEO Audit

We start with a comprehensive technical SEO audit. We'll check your site speed, mobile-friendliness, crawlability, structured data, security, and more. Then we give you a clear report of what needs fixing and why. A technical SEO audit is the first step to better rankings.

Why Technical SEO Matters

Technical SEO isn't optional. If your site has technical issues, you're losing potential customers to competitors who have their technical foundation sorted. Google rewards sites that are fast, mobile-friendly, and easy to crawl.

For local businesses, technical SEO is especially important because local search competition is real. When people search for services, Google shows the sites that are technically sound and provide a good user experience. If your site is slow or not mobile-friendly, you're not going to rank well.

We provide technical SEO services because we understand what works. We know what actually moves the needle. Technical SEO isn't about tricks or shortcuts. It's about building a solid foundation that helps your site rank better and provide a better experience for your visitors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need technical SEO if my site is new?

Yes. Technical SEO is important for new sites because it sets the foundation for everything else. If your new site has technical issues from the start, you'll struggle to rank. We can build technical SEO into new sites from the beginning, or fix technical issues on existing sites.

What's the difference between technical SEO and regular SEO?

Technical SEO focuses on the technical foundation of your site (speed, mobile, crawlability, etc.). Regular SEO includes technical SEO plus content optimisation, keyword research, and link building. Technical SEO is the foundation that makes everything else work. You need both, but technical SEO comes first.
