What is a technical SEO audit?
A technical SEO audit checks every signal a search engine uses to find your site. Robots.txt. XML sitemaps. Canonical tags. Hreflang. Redirects. Noindex tags. Structured data. Core Web Vitals. Security headers. This is the foundation layer. No amount of great content will rank if search engines cannot crawl the site. For a deep walkthrough, read the complete technical SEO audit guide.
Who is it for?
Developers shipping new templates. Marketing teams after a CMS migration. Agencies auditing a new client site before day one. In-house SEO managers running a quarterly health check. Anyone who needs to know that search engines can see the site.
What problem does it solve?
Most ranking problems blamed on "the algorithm" are really infrastructure problems. A canonical pointing to a noindex page. A sitemap listing 404s. An hreflang cluster with missing tags. A robots.txt rule that silently blocks a top category. These are invisible until someone runs a real audit. A technical SEO audit surfaces every one. Each finding has a severity label, affected pages, and a concrete fix.
What features are included?
- Crawlability: robots.txt syntax, directive coverage, sitemap discovery, blocked resources.
- Indexability: noindex conflicts, canonical integrity, canonical loops, self-referencing canonicals.
- Sitemap validation: structural XML checks, dead sub-sitemaps, stale lastmod, 50k URL and 50 MB caps.
- Redirects: chain length, loops, mixed 301/302 patterns, meta-refresh.
- Internationalisation: hreflang reciprocity, x-default, placement, syntax.
- Structured data: JSON-LD parse validity, required-field coverage per schema type.
- On-page technical: title length, meta description length, single H1, heading hierarchy, viewport meta.
- Performance: Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) with pass/fail against Google thresholds.

What makes it different?
Most technical SEO audits come from desktop crawlers (Screaming Frog) or audit modules inside $129/month research suites (Ahrefs, Semrush). Seoxpert is cloud-based, runs the full technical pass alongside security and performance in a single scan, and prices at an audit-only price point. For ongoing monitoring, scheduled scans catch regressions between releases without anyone having to remember to run a crawl.
When should someone not use it?
A technical audit tells you whether search engines can see and index your site. It does not tell you which keywords to target, which topics to cover, or who is linking to your competitors. For those jobs, use a research suite (Ahrefs, Semrush). For very large enterprise sites with millions of URLs and custom infrastructure, a dedicated enterprise crawler may give you configuration options Seoxpert does not expose.
Frequently asked questions
What does a technical SEO audit check?
Robots.txt, sitemap structure, canonical tags, hreflang, redirects, noindex conflicts, structured data, Core Web Vitals, security headers, and on-page signals like title tags and H1s.
How long does a technical audit take?
Most audits complete in under 2 minutes. Large sites with hundreds of pages take slightly longer depending on server response time. Live crawl progress is visible while the scan runs.
Can I export the audit as a PDF for a client?
Yes. Every scan can be exported as a branded PDF or CSV — designed for client deliverables and team hand-offs.
Does it replace Google Search Console?
No — it complements it. Search Console shows what Google actually did with your site (index coverage, queries, impressions). Seoxpert shows what could go wrong before Google sees it. Use both.
