Technical SEO support that turns diagnosis into action

I help teams find the technical issues that matter, prioritise them by business impact, and work with developers to validate fixes before and after launch.

Technical SEO is useful only when it separates real blockers from noise. The work focuses on crawlability, indexation, rendering, site architecture and technical decisions that affect organic visibility.

Signs You Need Technical SEO Support

  • Important pages are not being indexed or refreshed
  • Crawlers waste time on filters, duplicates or low-value URLs
  • JavaScript or rendered content differs from what search engines can rely on
  • Migrations, redesigns or platform changes create organic risk
  • Developers need clear SEO requirements rather than vague recommendations

Technical SEO Services

  • Crawling and indexation
  • Canonicals and duplication
  • Faceted navigation and crawl management
  • Site architecture and internal linking
  • JavaScript and rendered content
  • Site migrations
  • Page performance
  • Hreflang and international architecture

Technical Audit and Diagnosis

The audit combines crawl data, Search Console patterns, page templates, rendered HTML, internal links and commercial priority. The goal is not to list every issue. It is to identify what is likely to move visibility, revenue or risk.

Working With Developers

Recommendations are translated into implementation notes, acceptance criteria and validation steps so engineering teams know what to change and how to confirm it worked.

Technical SEO FAQs

Will you work directly with our developers?

Yes. Technical SEO recommendations are most useful when developers can understand the issue, expected behavior and validation method.

Do you cover migrations?

Yes. I can support migration planning, URL mapping, redirects, canonical and hreflang checks, launch QA and post-launch monitoring.

Do you prioritise every technical issue?

No. I prioritise technical issues by business impact, indexation risk, visibility upside and implementation effort.

What does a technical SEO consultant check?

A technical SEO review can cover crawling, indexation, canonicals, duplication, rendering, internal links, architecture, faceted navigation, performance, hreflang, schema and migration risk.

Is technical SEO only for large websites?

No. Smaller websites can still have technical blockers, but technical SEO becomes especially valuable when a site has many templates, filters, JavaScript rendering, international URLs, ecommerce catalogs or migration risk.

Can you provide developer-ready technical SEO requirements?

Yes. Recommendations can be turned into tickets, acceptance criteria, validation steps and post-launch QA notes so developers know what to change and how to confirm the fix worked.
