The Klyverai Technical SEO Audit: 80+ Checkpoints in the Order That Matters
The problem this solves
Most SEO audits hand you an automated Screaming Frog export and call it a discovery. That list is often 400 items long, ranked by nothing, with no guidance on which issues actually affect revenue.
How we do it
✓ 1. Crawlability and indexation first
Before checking a single keyword, we verify Google can find and index your pages correctly. We cross-reference Search Console coverage data against a full crawl to identify pages that exist but are not being indexed, pages being indexed that should not be, and canonicalization conflicts silently splitting authority. We also audit your robots.txt for accidental disallow rules blocking important page categories, check crawl budget consumption on large sites to identify wasteful crawl traps like infinite scroll parameters and session ID URLs, and verify that hreflang tags on multilingual sites are bidirectionally consistent.
✓ 2. Core Web Vitals on real devices
We run PageSpeed Insights on mobile for your 10 highest-traffic pages and your 5 most important commercial pages. We do not aggregate scores. A homepage passing LCP but a product page failing is still a conversion problem. Each failing page gets a specific fix: identified render-blocking scripts, unoptimized image formats, missing resource hints, third-party tag load order issues, and server response time breakdowns. We also pull CrUX field data to compare lab scores against real-user measurements, since lab scores alone can be misleading on pages with heavy personalisation or A/B test scripts.
✓ 3. Site architecture and internal link equity
We map how PageRank flows through your site using a crawl depth analysis. Pages more than 3 clicks from the homepage typically rank poorly regardless of content quality. We identify your most valuable pages that are buried and map the internal link changes that fix it. We also audit anchor text distribution across internal links to ensure contextually relevant anchors are used instead of generic "click here" or "learn more" text, and we identify orphan pages that receive no internal links at all — these are entirely invisible to Google's internal link graph.
✓ 4. Redirect and URL health check
We map every redirect chain and loop in your site. Redirect chains longer than one hop bleed PageRank and slow page load. We identify all 301s pointing to pages that themselves redirect, all 302s that should be 301s, and any redirect targets returning 404 errors. We also audit your URL parameter handling in Search Console to confirm that faceted navigation, tracking parameters, and sorting parameters are not generating thousands of duplicate URLs being indexed.
✓ 5. On-page signal completeness
We audit title tags, H1s, meta descriptions, schema markup, and image alt attributes across your top 50 pages. Not for length compliance but for keyword intent alignment. A title tag can be the right length and still be targeting the wrong intent entirely. We also check for duplicate title tags across the site, missing H1s, multiple H1s on the same page, and pages where the primary keyword is absent from all key on-page signals simultaneously. We audit structured data implementation using Google's Rich Results Test and Schema.org validator to catch markup errors preventing rich result eligibility.
✓ 6. Log file analysis for crawl behaviour
For sites with more than 500 pages we request server log files and analyse Googlebot's actual crawl behaviour over the last 30 days. This reveals which pages Google is visiting most frequently, which important pages are being crawled rarely or never, and whether crawl budget is being consumed by URLs that should be blocked. Log file analysis frequently uncovers crawl waste that Search Console alone does not surface.
✓ 7. Backlink profile health
We pull your full backlink profile from Ahrefs and segment it by domain authority, topical relevance, and anchor text distribution. We identify toxic links requiring disavowal, missed link opportunities from unlinked brand mentions, and competitor link sources you should be targeting. We also analyse your anchor text profile for over-optimisation signals — a backlink profile with more than 20 percent exact-match commercial anchors carries a manual action risk even when the links themselves are legitimate.
✓ 8. EEAT signal audit
Google's helpful content system and quality rater guidelines weight Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness signals heavily. We audit your site for author bylines and bio pages with credential detail, About page depth, contact information completeness, editorial policy and review date visibility, citations and outbound links to authoritative sources, and whether your content demonstrates genuine first-hand experience rather than generic information aggregation. Thin EEAT is increasingly a ranking ceiling regardless of technical and link performance.
