SEO audit Sydney · $1,500 fixed
SEO audit and 90-day roadmap
Every SEO engagement should start with an audit, and you should be able to buy the audit on its own. This one is fixed price, takes ten business days, and ends with a list you can act on whether or not you hire me to do it.
What I check
Five parts, every time. The weighting changes with the site; the list does not.
Can Google reach and understand it
Crawling, indexing, redirects, sitemap, robots, canonicals, duplicate pages, structured data, and what Search Console is already telling you.
Is it fast and usable
Core Web Vitals on real mobile conditions, page weight, scripts you do not need, layout shifts, accessibility basics, and the contact path on a phone.
Does the content match what people search for
Keyword and intent mapping, thin or duplicate pages, pages that compete with each other, expertise and trust signals, calls to action.
Local presence
Business Profile completeness and activity, citations, reviews, location pages, and how you compare in the map pack for your core terms.
Competitors and links
Who ranks for your terms and why, what their pages do that yours do not, and what your link profile looks like against theirs.
Report, roadmap, walkthrough
A written report. A prioritised 90-day roadmap with effort estimates. A 45-minute walkthrough call. A recorded video of me going through your site. The raw data.

Questions
Why pay for an audit when agencies offer free ones?
A free audit is a sales tool: an automated scan with a pitch attached. This one is ten days of a senior consultant’s time, and the roadmap is yours whether you hire me afterwards or not. It is priced below the $2,000 to $5,000 that Australian guides report for comparable audits.
What do you need from me?
Access to Google Search Console and your analytics (or permission to set them up), a short call about your business and your best customers, and a list of the competitors you worry about.
Will the audit tell me if SEO is a waste of money for my business?
Yes. Sometimes the honest answer is that paid search or a better website would do more. You will get that answer in writing.
Does the audit cover my Google Business Profile?
Yes, local presence is one of the five parts. If you have more than one location, each profile is checked.
