What we check
16 of the most important things Google — and your customers — look for on your website.
Google crawlability
Can Googlebot actually reach and read your pages? We check that your site isn't blocking search engines in robots.txt, meta tags, or server headers.
Sitemap
A sitemap.xml file tells Google which pages exist on your site so nothing important gets missed. We confirm yours is present and reachable.
Robots.txt
This file tells search engines what they can and can't crawl. A misconfigured robots.txt can hide your entire site from Google.
Page title
The <title> tag is what shows up as the blue link in Google results. It should be unique, descriptive, and 50–60 characters.
Meta description
The snippet under your title in search results. A clear 150–160 character description improves click-through rate.
Mobile friendliness
Google uses mobile-first indexing — your site must render, read, and click cleanly on a phone or it gets demoted.
Website speed
Slow-loading pages lose visitors and rankings. We flag heavy pages, blocking scripts, and Core Web Vitals issues.
Contact info
A visible phone, email, and address on your site builds trust with visitors and gives Google real-business signals.
Local business schema
Structured data (LocalBusiness JSON-LD) tells Google your name, address, hours, and area served — powering local search results.
Privacy policy
A privacy page is required for Google Ads, AdSense, and most contact forms. Missing it hurts trust and monetization.
Terms page
Terms of Service protect you legally and signal to Google that this is a legitimate, established business.
Google Business Profile
Your free Google listing that shows on Maps and local search. We check for signals it exists and is linked to your site.
Broken links
Dead internal or outbound links frustrate users and waste Google's crawl budget. We scan for 404s and redirects.
Call-to-action buttons
Clear next steps — Call Now, Get Quote, Book — turn visitors into leads. We check that CTAs are visible above the fold.
QR code availability
A QR code on your site (or in print) makes it one tap to open on mobile — great for restaurants, flyers, and business cards.
Chatbot readiness
A chatbot or contact widget lets visitors ask questions instantly. We check whether your site has one, or room to add one.
One platform. Four pillars of a website that ranks.
SEO, speed, trust, and AI search — the same signals Google, Bing, and ChatGPT use to decide who shows up first.
SEO & AEO
Rank on Google AND in AI search
Old SEO gets you on Google. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) gets your business quoted by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. We check both.

How a website audit actually works
No black box. Here's the four-step pipeline behind every Google Readiness Score.
Fetch like Google
We request your homepage the same way Googlebot would — desktop and mobile user agents, raw HTML, sitemap and robots.txt.
Run 16 checks
Each test is grounded in Google's public ranking signals: crawlability, schema, Core Web Vitals, broken links, contact info, mobile, and more.
Score and prioritize
Weighted scoring puts the highest-impact items (mobile, speed, crawlability) first. You get a 0–100 grade with plain-English fixes.
Fix and re-run
Most fixes take 5–30 minutes in your site builder. Most users see local search movement within 2–4 weeks of fixing the top items.
