Technical audit scope
Technical SEO audit: checks, evidence and prioritized actions
A scoped technical audit can assess robots directives, XML sitemaps, HTTP status codes, redirect chains, canonical signals, internal links, structured data and mobile rendering. Search Console access, when provided, helps distinguish discovered, crawled and indexed URLs.
What the audit report should contain
Findings should identify affected URLs, observed behavior, supporting evidence, severity, recommended remediation and a practical validation method. Implementation work and ongoing monitoring must be defined separately in the agreed scope.
What an audit cannot guarantee
A technically accessible page is not guaranteed to be indexed or ranked by Google. Search engines make their own indexing decisions, and server logs or Search Console data may be needed to diagnose individual URLs.
