Technical SEO Audit
Technical SEO Audit Toronto — Search Console, Indexing, and Ranking Fixes
We audit the crawl path, metadata, schema, sitemap, redirects, performance, Search Console data, and GA4 lead signals behind your site, then implement the fixes that make indexing, ranking, and measurement easier.
A technical SEO audit is a structured review of everything that decides whether Google can find, render, index, and correctly interpret a website: robots rules, sitemaps, canonical tags, redirects, internal links, structured data, rendering, and Core Web Vitals. The ValeoFX version adds two layers a generic audit skips. It reads Search Console and GA4 together, so every issue is scored against the queries and lead events it actually affects, and it ends in an implementation backlog rather than a PDF nobody actions. The audit is a fixed $1,500 engagement delivered in 5 to 10 business days as a written report, a ranked backlog, and a walkthrough call, with the full fee credited toward an implementation sprint started within 30 days. It suits Toronto businesses on Next.js, WordPress, Shopify, or WooCommerce whose pages are discovered but not indexed, rank for the wrong terms, or cannot connect organic traffic to leads.

Search Console AI reporting workflowFAQs
What does the audit report actually contain?+
A written document, usually 20 to 40 pages, with one section per template type. Each finding lists the affected URLs, the evidence from Search Console or the crawl, a screenshot where useful, the recommended fix, and the effort and impact score. It ships with a spreadsheet backlog you can hand to any developer.
How long does a technical SEO audit take and what does it cost?+
Five to ten business days from access being granted, for a fixed $1,500. If you start an implementation sprint within 30 days the audit fee is credited in full, so the audit is effectively free when we do the fixes.
How is this different from your SEO services engagement?+
The audit is a fixed-scope diagnosis with a backlog at the end. The SEO services engagement is the ongoing implementation: page rewrites, local alignment, content, and monthly reporting. Most Toronto clients start with the audit and roll into a sprint.
Will a technical SEO audit get my pages indexed faster?+
An audit can identify discovery and indexing barriers such as broken internal links, sitemap gaps, conflicting canonical URLs, or accidental noindex directives. We implement and verify those fixes, but Google decides whether and when to index a page. Structured data does not guarantee faster crawling or indexing.
Do you validate rich result schema?+
Yes. We validate eligible markup against Google's feature requirements and the visible page content, including BreadcrumbList, Article, LocalBusiness, SoftwareApplication, and VideoObject where appropriate. Service markup can describe an offering, but Google does not provide a dedicated Service rich result. Valid markup does not guarantee a rich result will appear.
Do you implement the fixes after the audit?+
Yes. The audit is designed for implementation. ValeoFX can patch Next.js, WordPress, Shopify, and WooCommerce SEO issues directly instead of handing you a generic report.
