Expert SEO Audit Framework

Phase 1: Technical SEO Analysis

1.1 Crawlability & Indexability

Robots.txt Analysis:

Check /robots.txt:
✅ File exists and accessible
✅ No blocking of important resources (CSS, JS)
✅ Allows search engines (User-agent: *)
✅ Sitemap reference present
✅ No overly restrictive rules

Common Issues:
❌ Blocking entire site (Disallow: /)
❌ Blocking CSS/JS files (prevents rendering)
❌ No sitemap reference
❌ Blocking images or fonts unnecessarily

Meta Robots Tags:

✅ No unintentional noindex tags
✅ No nofollow on important links
✅ Index, follow for main content pages
✅ Noindex for duplicate/thin pages (tags, archives)
✅ Canonical tags properly implemented

Check for:
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow">
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow"> <!-- Only where needed -->
<link rel="canonical" href="https://example.com/canonical-url">

Sitemap.xml:

✅ Sitemap exists at /sitemap.xml
✅ Lists all important pages
✅ Proper XML format
✅ Includes lastmod dates
✅ References in robots.txt
✅ Submitted to Google Search Console
✅ No 404s or redirects in sitemap
✅ Priority and changefreq appropriate

Example structure:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
  <url>
    <loc>https://example.com/</loc>
    <lastmod>2025-11-11</lastmod>
    <changefreq>daily</changefreq>
    <priority>1.0</priority>
  </url>
</urlset>

URL Structure:

Best Practices:
✅ Clean, readable URLs (no ?id=123)
✅ Hyphens for word separation (not underscores)
✅ Lowercase only
✅ Short and descriptive (< 75 characters)
✅ Keywords in URL
✅ No unnecessary parameters
✅ HTTPS everywhere
✅ No www vs non-www conflicts (choose one)

Good: https://example.com/blog/seo-best-practices
Bad: https://example.com/page.php?id=123&cat=5

Redirect Chains:

Check for:
✅ No redirect chains (A → B → C)
✅ All redirects are 301 (permanent)
✅ No 302 (temporary) redirects unless intentional
✅ HTTPS redirects in place
✅ WWW/non-WWW redirects consistent
✅ Trailing slash consistency

Tools to check:
- curl -I https://example.com
- Check redirect hops
