Discovery Audit

SEO is expensive to get wrong.
This is the investment you make first.

I’ve heard this before..

You hire someone. Six months later, nothing moved.

You watch your analytics like a hawk. Not much changes, and now you’re sitting on a four or five-figure investment, wondering if you got scammed.

Or you’re spending a fortune on ad spend because your SEO provider threw it into the mix. They’re building you 2,000 backlinks a month, which sounds super impressive until you realize you have no idea what that even means (or if you even need it).

You probably went in without an objective baseline. No independent picture of what your site actually needed and no way to evaluate whether what you were being sold made sense for your situation.

This audit is the step you take before any investing.

Who this is for

This is right for you if…

  • You’re an existing online business like a coach, course creator, service provider, or content-driven brand, and you’re ready to make a serious investment in SEO, but want to know exactly what you’re investing in first
  • You’re a local business being pitched SEO services, and want an independent read on where you actually stand before signing anything
  • You’ve been burned before and want an objective outside opinion before spending more

Note: This audit is not for brand-new sites with no content or history. There needs to be something to audit.

What comes next

Your audit won’t just end with a list of problems.

Scenario A

Your foundation needs work first

You will receive a clear breakdown of any technical issues and content problems that need to be resolved before any growth investment will compound, along with what that cleanup realistically looks like.

Scenario B

Your foundation is solid

You’ll see exactly where the growth opportunities are whether that’s content, links, or ongoing management. I’ll show you what each path forward actually involves so you can make the right call for your budget and timeline.

Scenario C — Most common

It’s somewhere in between

Most sites land here, surprise! You’ll get a prioritized breakdown of what you can address first, what can wait, and what your realistic options look like at each stage so you’re not trying to do everything at once or spend all your money.

Common questions

Still not sure? Here are some questions people often ask before getting started.

Having access to data and knowing what it means are two different things. The audit tells you what to do with them and gives you a framework to evaluate whether what someone else is proposing actually makes sense for your site.

That’s exactly what this audit is for! You’ll know whether you need cleanup before growth, or whether you’re ready to build out or pare down, and you’ll have the tools to properly evaluate whoever you bring in to help.

Nope. Local business audits get the Pinterest element swapped for a local presence review: GBP health, local pack visibility, and location page analysis.

If your audit leads you to work with me, I’ll show you some options how we can tackle it together. I offer hands-off done for you, and I’m exploring some done with you options that would allow us to work adjacently towards your goals.
