Your Sydney SEO specialist

A real audit by a person, not an automated score with a sales pitch attached.

Automated tools will happily hand you hundreds of warnings with no idea which ones matter. Most red flags in automated reports have no effect on rankings at all, and the few that do are easy to miss in the noise. My audit reads the data and tells you what to fix first.

I'm Aaron Knight, a Sydney-based SEO specialist with over 13 years of experience. I work from Google Search Console and Google Analytics for what is actually happening on your site, and compare you against the businesses ranking above you.

01 / What is an SEO audit?

What Is an SEO Audit?

An SEO audit is a structured review of how well your website is set up to be found on Google. It checks three areas: the technical foundations, the content on each page, and the signals from other websites pointing at you. The output is a list of problems and opportunities, in priority order.

Think of it as a health check for your site. A good audit tells you what to fix first. It is also the fastest way to see whether I know what I'm talking about before you spend anything.

02 / Services

What the Audit Covers

Three layers of SEO, reviewed together, with the findings ranked by impact.

01

Technical SEO

Whether search engines can crawl, index and understand your pages. I check crawl errors, broken links and redirect chains, indexation, site speed and Core Web Vitals, mobile usability, HTTPS, structured data, and duplicate content or site architecture problems.

02

On-Page SEO

Whether each important page matches the search it should be winning. I check title tags, meta descriptions, headings, content quality, internal linking and image optimisation.

03

Off-Page SEO

Who is vouching for you. I review your backlink profile, look for spammy links that could be holding you back, and compare you against the sites ranking above you.

04

Local and AI search readiness

If you sell to a specific area, I check your Google Business Profile, local citations and location signals. I also flag vague or hard-to-crawl pages, since the same problems make it harder for AI search tools to cite you.

    I pick what matters

    Out of everything the analysis turns up, I select the issues that are really limiting your rankings.

    We talk it through

04 / Why custom

Why Start With an Audit?

Fixing the right things first is cheaper than fixing everything:

No sales pitch attached.

The audit is free, and what you do with it is up to you. Plenty of people take it straight to their own developer, and that's fine.

Ranked by leads, not warnings.

I rank issues by how likely they are to affect enquiries, so you know where to start.

Proof that fixing the right things works.

Beta Tools doubled traffic in 3 months after 18 flat months, with 553 new keywords and 11 first-page rankings. My own site almost tripled organic traffic in 3 months by updating existing content.

Honest about the next step.

If your traffic is fine but too few visitors turn into enquiries, the fix is conversion rate optimisation rather than more SEO. I'll say so.

05 / Pricing

SEO Audit Cost

The audit is free, with no obligation. If you'd like help acting on it, SEO campaigns are sold at any monthly budget, from a minimum of $1,000 per month, with a suggested campaign from $1,800 per month and larger, more competitive campaigns up to $10,000 per month. I'll tell you honestly which of those your site needs, and sometimes the answer is the smallest one.

Is the SEO audit really free?

Yes. I'll review your site, tell you what's holding it back and what I'd fix first, with no obligation. It's the easiest way to see how I work before you spend anything.

How long does an SEO audit take?

I'll confirm timing when we speak, because it depends on the size of your site and how many competitors we need to compare against.

How do you perform a technical SEO audit?

I start with Google Search Console and a full crawl of your site to find crawl errors, broken links, indexation problems and slow pages. Then I check mobile usability, page speed and structured data, and rank what I find by how much it is likely to affect your leads.

Do I need to hire you to fix what the audit finds?

No. You can use the findings with your own developer or marketing team, or I can do the work for you.

How soon will I see results after fixing the issues?

It depends on how competitive your market is. Low-competition terms can move within weeks, while competitive terms usually take three to six months of steady work. I won't promise a result for every site.

What is the best free SEO checker?

Google Search Console is the best free starting point because it shows what Google itself sees on your site. Automated checkers can be useful for a quick scan, but they score everything equally. A human review tells you which problems actually matter.
