What a Free Check Can and Cannot See
Worth saying plainly, because a free offer that overstates itself is not much of a favour. This is an outside-in review: we look at your site the way a visitor and a search engine do.
That reliably catches speed, mobile behaviour, missing meta and headings, broken links, SSL problems, an untested contact form, and indexing basics. What it cannot see without access is whether your backups actually run, whether a plugin conflict is brewing, what your hosting plan really gives you, or what is happening in your database. Those need a look inside, and we will say so rather than guess.
Three Things We Find Almost Every Time
- Images uploaded at camera size. A 4 MB photograph scaled down in the browser still downloads as 4 MB. It is the single most common reason a site is slow on mobile data.
- Interior pages with no meta description. The homepage usually has one. The service pages — the ones people actually search for — often do not, so Google writes its own.
- A contact form nobody has tested since launch. Forms fail silently, usually because the site started sending mail from a domain that has no permission to. Nothing errors; the enquiries just never arrive.
All three are fixable and none of them require hiring anybody, which is why we list them here rather than only in the report.
If Someone Already Looks After Your Site
Then you do not need this from us — you need to ask them the questions above. When was a restore last tested, why is that page slow, has the form been tested this quarter. A provider who answers those clearly is doing the job.
If nobody is looking after it and the report finds real problems, the fixes live in speed optimisation or security, and the ongoing version is a website maintenance plan. You can also run our free SEO audit yourself right now, without waiting for a report.
