Website Health Audit

A website health audit reveals problems you might not know exist. Performance issues, security vulnerabilities, SEO mistakes, and usability problems can all silently hurt your traffic and conversions. Our WordPress website health audit examines your site across multiple dimensions and delivers a clear, actionable report telling you exactly what to fix and in what order.

Performance Check

We measure your site’s speed and performance using multiple tools and real-world testing. This covers page load times on both desktop and mobile, Core Web Vitals scores, server response time, resource loading efficiency, and database performance. You get specific numbers showing where your site stands today and what needs improvement to meet modern performance standards.

Security Review

We check your site for common security vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. This includes the update status of WordPress core, themes, and plugins, user account security and permissions, file permission settings, known vulnerability checks against your installed plugins and themes, SSL certificate configuration, and login page security. Any critical issues are flagged for immediate attention.

SEO Assessment

We review your site’s technical SEO foundation to make sure search engines can find and rank your pages effectively. This covers your robots.txt and XML sitemap configuration, meta title and description implementation across your pages, heading structure and content hierarchy, image optimization and alt text usage, mobile responsiveness, and internal linking structure. These factors directly affect how Google discovers, crawls, and ranks your content.

Actionable Recommendations Report

Your audit report is organized by priority. Critical issues that need immediate attention are listed first, followed by important improvements and nice-to-have optimizations. Each recommendation includes a clear explanation of the issue, why it matters for your site, and the specific steps to fix it. You can use the report as a roadmap for improving your site yourself, or you can hire us to implement the fixes through our other services.
