Technical SEO Consultant

If Google can't
crawl it, nothing
else matters.

Technical SEO is the foundation of everything else. Content, links, and strategy only work if search engines can properly access, understand, and index your site. We make sure they can.

⚠️
Crawl errors blocking key pages
Google can't index what it can't reach. Broken internal links, bad redirects, and blocked URLs silently kill rankings.

Duplicate content & canonicals

The part of SEO
most people ignore.

Technical SEO is everything that determines whether search engines can effectively crawl, render, index, and understand your website. It has nothing to do with the words on your page — it's about the infrastructure underneath them.

Think of it this way: you can write the best article on the internet, earn hundreds of backlinks, and target exactly the right keywords — and still not rank, because Google is hitting a crawl error before it even gets to your content.

A technical SEO consultant finds and fixes those problems. Broken redirects. Slow pages. Duplicate content confusing Google about which URL to rank. Poor internal linking leaving your most important pages without authority. Structured data missing that would give you rich results in the SERP.

Most sites have 3–5 technical issues causing the majority of their ranking problems. They're not exotic or hard to fix — they're just invisible unless you know where to look.

By the numbers
68%
of online experiences begin with a search engine — but most sites have at least one technical issue preventing them from ranking as well as they should.
53%
of mobile users abandon a site that takes longer than 3 seconds to load. Page speed is both a UX and a ranking problem.
~40%
of pages crawled by Google have at least one critical technical SEO issue — canonicalisation, crawlability, or indexation problems.

Every technical
signal that matters.

Technical SEO isn't one thing — it's a stack of interconnected systems. We work across all of them.

🔍
Crawlability &
indexation

Making sure Google can reach every page that matters — and isn't wasting crawl budget on pages that don't. Robots.txt, XML sitemaps, crawl error resolution.

Core Web
Vitals

LCP, CLS, and INP are Google ranking signals as well as real user experience metrics. We diagnose what's causing failures and work with your dev team to fix them.

Site architecture

How your pages link to each other determines how authority flows through your site. A flat, logical structure makes it easier for Google to understand what matters most.

Canonicals &
duplicate content

Duplicate URLs, thin pages, and missing canonical tags split your authority and confuse Google about which version of a page to rank. We clean this up systematically.

Canonical tags Duplicate content Hreflang Pagination

Structured data &
schema markup

Schema markup helps Google understand your content and can unlock rich results — review stars, FAQs, breadcrumbs, and more — in the SERP. Most sites implement it poorly or not at all.

HTTPS, redirects
& security

Redirect chains, mixed content warnings, and insecure pages all quietly drag down rankings and trust. We audit and resolve them as part of any technical engagement.

Signs you have a technical SEO problem

Traffic has dropped with no obvious reason — no major content changes, no penalty notice
Pages aren't being indexed despite being live and linked to from elsewhere on your site
Rankings are inconsistent — different positions on different days, or appearing then disappearing
You've recently migrated your site or changed your CMS and traffic hasn't recovered
Core Web Vitals are failing in Search Console and you don't know where to start fixing them
You're launching a new site and want to make sure it's technically sound from day one
Your dev team has built the site but nobody on the team has deep SEO knowledge to sense-check it

Most technical
SEO problems are
invisible until
you look.

They don't throw error pages. They don't send alerts. Your site appears to work perfectly — it loads, pages exist, content is there. But underneath, Google is quietly struggling to crawl it properly, and your rankings reflect that.

A technical SEO consultant knows where to look. We use the same tools Google uses — Search Console data, crawl logs, Core Web Vitals reports — to find exactly what's happening and why.

Diagnosis
before prescription.

We don't assume we know what's wrong before we've looked. Every technical SEO engagement starts with a thorough audit — then we fix what actually needs fixing.

01
Technical audit

Full crawl of your site. We pull Search Console data, crawl logs, and Core Web Vitals reports to map every technical issue — prioritised by impact.

02
Prioritised roadmap

Not everything needs fixing at once. We give you a clear, tiered action plan — quick wins first, structural changes second, longer-term architecture work third.

03
Fix & implement

We either implement fixes directly or work alongside your dev team with precise specifications. No vague recommendations that get lost in a backlog.

04
Monitor & verify

Technical fixes need to be confirmed — by Search Console, by recrawl, by ranking movement. We monitor every fix until we can confirm it's working.

Technical SEO for
every stage.

Whether you're launching, growing, or recovering — there's a version of this work that makes sense for you.

⚙️
Dev teams launching

You've built the site — but has anyone checked it from an SEO perspective? We work with development teams pre-launch to make sure the technical foundations are right before anything goes live.

📉
Sites with traffic drops

Unexplained traffic drops are almost always technical. A core update hit something, a migration went wrong, or a recent deploy broke something subtle. We find it.

🚀
Startups scaling

Your site was built fast. That's fine — but technical debt accumulates quickly. Before you invest in content and links, make sure the foundation can support the load.

🔄
Post-migration recovery

CMS migrations, rebrands, and URL restructures are the most common cause of significant organic traffic loss. We diagnose what broke and rebuild the rankings systematically.

Common
questions.

What's the difference between technical SEO and regular SEO? +
Regular SEO is a broad term covering content, links, and technical work. Technical SEO specifically refers to the infrastructure layer — how your site is built, how it communicates with search engines, and how well it performs. It's the foundation everything else sits on.
Do I need a developer to fix technical SEO issues? +
Some fixes are dev-heavy (Core Web Vitals, site architecture), others can be done directly in your CMS (meta tags, redirects, schema). We scope every fix clearly — what can be done without dev involvement, and what needs developer time — so nothing gets stuck in ambiguity.
How long does technical SEO take to show results? +
Quick wins like fixing crawl errors and resolving redirect chains can show results within weeks once Google recrawls the affected pages. Structural changes like site architecture improvements take longer — typically 2–4 months to fully reflect in rankings.
Can you work with our existing dev team? +
Yes — this is common. We provide precise technical specifications that your dev team can implement directly. We've worked with in-house teams, external agencies, and solo developers. We speak developer, not just SEO.
What does a technical SEO consultant actually deliver? +
A written audit report detailing every issue found, its severity, and how to fix it. A prioritised action plan. A walkthrough call. For ongoing retainers, monthly deliverables and reporting. Everything is documented — nothing lives only in someone's head.
