SEO Audit Service ($497): 7 Phases, 90-Day Roadmap

Your competitors are showing up. You're not.

Someone in your market searched for the exact service you offer this morning. They searched online. They asked an AI assistant. They checked Yelp or asked a friend on Reddit. Your competitor showed up. You didn't.

You might have a website. It might even look good. But looking good and being found are two different problems. Most service businesses we audit have gaps they don't know about: pages search engines can't index, no content connecting their services to buyer questions, and no presence in AI search engines like ChatGPT and Claude.

You can't fix what you can't see. Generic SEO audit tools flag surface-level issues. Agencies hand you dashboards full of metrics that don't connect to revenue. A real SEO audit service studies your business, your competitors, and your market, then tells you what to do first.

Seven research phases. One clear roadmap.

A purpose-built research agent runs all seven phases, built on twenty years of knowing what to look for. Every audit is reviewed before delivery. You see the findings, the sources, and the exact prompts behind them.

• Business & Market Research. Before touching a metric, the agent studies your website, reviews, social profiles, and market positioning. This sets the context for every recommendation: who your buyers are, how you talk about your work, and who you're competing against.
• Technical SEO Audit. Full crawl of your site from the XML sitemap. Every page, not a sample. Crawlability, indexation, page speed, Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS), mobile experience, security, URL structure, and on-page SEO. Each issue is scored by severity with a specific fix attached.
• Content Funnel Analysis. Every page gets classified by what the buyer is doing there: deciding (pages that convert), comparing (pages that help people evaluate), and learning (pages that build authority). Then it maps the internal linking chains between them and scores how well your content moves visitors toward a purchase. Most businesses we audit are missing the middle layer entirely.
• AI Search Visibility Audit. Your brand gets tested across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Grok using real queries your customers would ask. For each query: does the AI mention you? How prominently? Is the information accurate? What sources does it cite instead? You get the exact prompts to verify the results yourself.
• Competitive Deep Dive. Your top 5–7 organic competitors are identified through real Google searches for your commercial keywords, whoever is winning the rankings you want, whether you've heard of them or not. Each gets profiled: platform, content volume, funnel structure, review counts, schema markup, and authority signals. The report shows where you're behind, where you're ahead, and where nobody is competing yet.
• Keyword Research. For each core service, the agent researches the keywords people actually use: primary commercial terms, related searches, People Also Ask questions, and long-tail variants. Each keyword gets classified by intent, volume, difficulty, and funnel stage. The gaps where your competitors rank and you don't are flagged explicitly.
• Content Strategy & Phased Roadmap. All six phases feed into a content strategy built from the bottom up. Starting with your conversion pages, the agent maps the supporting content each one needs (comparison articles, buyer's guides, educational pieces) with chain logic showing how every article connects back to revenue. The deliverable includes a prioritized content queue, five content briefs ready for a writer, and a phased execution timeline organized in 30-day milestones.
