Things That Make You Go Hmmmm…
Our digital marketing audits can help.
$102,000—the average amount small businesses using Google Ads spend each year on paid search campaigns.
How many know what they have to show for it?
When it comes to advertising, there are a lot of places to spend money. Which is right for your business? Is what you’re doing now working? Could it be more efficient and effective? You’ve got questions; our digital marketing audits have answers.
Our digital marketing audits are conducted by certified and experienced professionals. Generally over 20 pages long, they include all of our findings, an analysis, a list of top priority recommendations, and a condensed checklist of next steps for easy reference.
Based on an initial consultation, we can develop a digital marketing audit that is customized to your business, goals, problems and concerns, and platforms you’re currently using. However, here are some of our “standard” audits.
Technical Website Audit
(a.k.a. Technical SEO Audit)
Our technical website audit reviews onsite factors that may be impacting your site’s performance on search engines such as:
- Site speed
- Mobile friendliness
- Crawl errors
- Keyword rankings
- More!
A technical website audit also touches on potential user experience concerns like broken links and slow page load times. They can be helpful after a new website launch to pinpoint transition issues such as missing metadata or 404s that were created.
Google Analytics Audit
