An SEO audit is a comprehensive analysis of every factor affecting your website's ability to rank on Google. A professional SEO audit for South African websites covers: technical issues (crawlability, speed, mobile, canonicals), on-page SEO (titles, metas, content quality, headings), local SEO (GBP, citations, local rankings), backlink profile analysis, and competitor comparison. The result is a detailed report with a prioritised action plan telling you exactly what to fix and in what order for maximum ranking improvement.
