What we check
The audit, area by area
| Profile | Categories, description, services, attributes, hours, service area |

The audit is the starting point for our local SEO and SEO services. A fuller paid version is described on the GBP audit service page.
Questions
What does the free audit cover?
Your Google Business Profile (categories, completeness, reviews, photos, activity), the consistency of your business listings, and the basics of your website: whether it can be crawled and indexed, how fast it loads and how clearly it says what you do and where. We also compare you with the businesses currently ranking above you.
How long does it take?
You receive the audit by email within 24 hours of sending the form.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no charge and no obligation to buy anything. If the audit shows work we can help with, we will say so and you can decide.
What do you need from me?
Your name, business name and email. A website address and a link to your Google Business Profile help us find the right business, but they are optional.
I would rather check it myself. Is there a tool?
Yes, two free tools you can run yourself: the Website SEO Audit checks your website (up to 100 pages) and the GBP Audit scores your Google Business Profile against 40 checks. The Expert Audit on this page is different: a person on our team reviews both and sends you a plan.
