SEO Audit

A full review of how search engines crawl, index and understand your site, with a prioritized list of fixes your team or ours can act on.

An SEO audit finds what is stopping your site from showing up in search: crawl blocks, indexing problems, slow pages, thin or duplicate content, weak local signals and broken links. 1REALTOUR runs audits as a one-time project for businesses that want a clear picture before investing in ongoing SEO, a redesign or a migration. You get a written report ranked by impact, not a raw export from a tool.

What we check

Crawling and indexing

We review robots.txt, XML sitemaps, canonical tags, noindex directives, redirect chains and server errors, and compare what you want indexed against what Google Search Console reports as indexed. Many ranking problems start with pages Google cannot reach or has chosen not to index.

Site structure and content

We look at how pages link to each other, whether each service and location has a clear page, and where content is thin, duplicated or competing for the same search. Title tags, headings and meta descriptions are checked for accuracy and overlap.

Page experience

We test mobile usability and Core Web Vitals, and identify the heavy images, scripts, fonts and plugins that slow pages down on phones.

Structured data and local signals

We validate schema markup and confirm it matches the visible content. For local businesses we review your Google Business Profile, categories, service areas and the consistency of your name, address and phone number across the web.

What you receive

The report groups findings into three tiers: issues blocking visibility, issues limiting performance, and improvements worth scheduling. Each item names the affected URLs, explains the problem in plain language and describes the fix. Where we can, we estimate the effort so you can plan.

We walk through the findings on a call. Your developer can work from the list, or 1REALTOUR can make the fixes as a follow-on project.

When an audit makes sense

  • Traffic or leads from search dropped and nobody knows why
  • You are planning a redesign or platform migration and want a baseline
  • You inherited a site from another agency or developer
  • You are about to start a content or link-building program
  • Your Google Business Profile is not appearing for local searches

An audit before a migration is especially valuable. It records which pages earn traffic and links today so the redirect map protects them.

How it relates to AI search

Google states that pages must be indexed and eligible to show with a snippet to appear as supporting links in AI Overviews and AI Mode. That makes a technical SEO audit the starting point for AI search visibility as well. Our audit includes a review of AI crawler rules in robots.txt and flags pages where key information exists only in images or scripts.

Frequently asked questions

What is an SEO audit?
An SEO audit is a structured review of how search engines crawl, index and rank a website. It covers technical setup, content, site structure, page speed, structured data and local signals. The result is a prioritized list of fixes.
How long does an SEO audit take?
The length of an SEO audit depends on the size and complexity of the site. Small business sites take less time than large stores with many product and category pages. 1REALTOUR gives a timeline with the quote.
What access does 1REALTOUR need for an SEO audit?
1REALTOUR needs read access to Google Search Console and GA4, and manager access to your Google Business Profile if local search is in scope. Read access to the website admin helps but is not always required.
Will 1REALTOUR fix the issues found in the SEO audit?
The SEO audit report is written so any competent developer can act on it. 1REALTOUR can also make the fixes as a separate project or as part of an ongoing SEO engagement.
Does an SEO audit cover AI Overviews and AI search?
The 1REALTOUR SEO audit covers the technical foundations Google requires for AI Overviews and AI Mode, plus a review of AI crawler rules. A deeper review of answer structure and entity consistency is available as an AI search optimization audit.
