Websites are highly technical enterprises. Today, many people build their own with the one-click, drag-and-drop versions and don’t understand much about the “back end” or coding part of the site. However, many things can happen in the backend that prevents your site from getting ranked highly by search engines.
A technical SEO audit check to ensure best practices for search optimization are being followed increases the chances of your site getting a better ranking. It checks your website’s SEO performance and overall health to enable search engine crawlers to discover your site, properly index it, and rank it well so you are better seen.
Getting a higher ranking is important to your business being found by potential customers. More than 90 percent of people start researching online when they want to buy something and most of those stay on the first search page. Of that group, the majority call or click on businesses that are at the top of the page. That is the dream spot that every business wants. Technical SEO audits can help get your business there.
These audits also improve your website performance and help with user experience. Both of those are crucial to conversions.

Internal linking issues where a link points to another page on your website can be flawed or incorrect.
Incorrect site architecture is another common issue. Website pages should be logical and flow using links. Its architecture is how this is set up and functions together. It should be well organized, and easy to navigate and maintain.
Site speed is a critical ranking factor. Slower speeds or excessive downtimes hurt ranking.
