SEO ROADMAP

This process involves an exchange of a lot of sensitive information!  It can feel like a huge act of faith – on both sides.

You, the client, are giving us access to your Google Analytics, the backend of your website, your processes and probably a ton of other info about your business.  You have taken a leap of faith and thank you for entrusting us with your baby. 

We will give you a NDA to sign so your secrets are safe with us. From there we will supply additional paperwork that will talk about expectations, secure access/login info, ask more questions,  benchmark your site, do extensive competitors analysis, set up templates, establish a reporting schedule, and look at your goals to mention but a few of the tasks.  Depending on your package this can take up to 60 hours for us to do.

With feedback meetings in place and reports scheduled.  We start to delve into the data!

We need to make sure that all the necessary accounts are set up and functioning superbly for reporting.  We want to share with you what we are seeing and what we are busy with.  Once the technical SEO audit is complete, we will prioritise and start focusing on your site’s health.

We are going to map it with your current content.  If you don’t have a content calendar already then we can assist you with a template based on what we are seeing.  Get ready to do some content creation!  We will continue to report on  and get your site healthy with technical SEO.  We will assess your hosting provider too.  Up to 40 hours.
