How long does it take to get my free SEO audit?

We aim to deliver all audit reports within 48 hours of receiving your request. The complexity of your site and the current state of your SEO will affect the depth of the report, but you will always receive a full diagnostic, not a superficial scan.

Is there any obligation after receiving the audit?

No. The audit is free and comes with no obligation. You can use the findings yourself, take them to another provider, or ignore them entirely. We send the report because we believe in transparency, not as a sales tactic.

What information do I need to submit with my audit request?

Use the Send enquiry button and include your website URL, target location, and main service or product area. If there is a specific SEO problem you want us to focus on, add that too so the audit can prioritise the issue that matters most.

Will the audit tell me exactly what to fix?

Yes. Every audit ends with a prioritised action plan, not a generic list of 100 recommendations, but a structured breakdown of what to fix first, what will have the biggest impact, and what can be addressed later. The priority order is based on your specific site and competitive landscape.

Can you fix the issues after the audit or do I have to do it myself?

You can do the fixes yourself if you have the technical knowledge, or we can handle it. Our SEO optimisation service covers the full implementation, keyword research, on-page work, technical baseline, schema markup, and a written report. We also offer ongoing content and performance management for businesses that want continuous visibility work rather than a one-time project.

Is this audit useful if my website is new?

Yes. A new website baseline audit is actually one of the best investments you can make before doing any other SEO work. It identifies problems early, before they compound, and gives you a clear roadmap for building your site in a way that search engines can properly index and rank.

Free SEO Audit for UK Business Websites

The free SEO audit is a written report on where your website actually stands in Google search: what is working, what is holding you back, and what to fix first. It is prepared by the senior person who would run your campaign, not generated by a scanning tool, and it is returned within 48 hours of your request. No obligation follows it and nobody chases you afterwards. The report either makes its own case or it does not.

What you receive, exactly

One written document, in plain English, containing:

A score for each area we review, so you can see at a glance where the site is strong and where it leaks.
The highest-leverage fixes, in priority order. Not everything that could be improved - the short list of what would actually move enquiries, ranked by impact against effort.
Benchmarks against your real competitors - the businesses taking work you wanted, not generic industry averages.
A realistic read on timelines: which of your targets are quick wins and which are longer campaigns. We do not promise ranking dates, because honest agencies do not.
A quote, only because you will want the number. It sits at the end of the report. There is no call required to hear it, and using the report with another provider, or by yourself, is a perfectly good outcome.

What we review

Core Web Vitals and how the site really performs on phones, where your customers are
Rankings for the searches that bring paying customers in your target area
Google Business Profile completeness, categories, review flow and activity
Citation consistency across the directories that matter
On-page fundamentals: titles, meta descriptions, heading structure, internal links and content quality
Backlink profile and domain authority, honestly weighted
Local visibility town by town, including whether your pages compete or duplicate each other
AI search readiness: whether ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI systems can verify and cite your business

What we need from you

Three things make the report sharp; two more help when they exist:

Your live website address - the real site, not a staging link.
Your target area - the town or towns where customers should find you. Our service areas cover the Midlands and Warwickshire.
Your priority services - the work you want more of, in the words your customers use.
Your Google Business Profile link, if you have one.
Any previous reports or Search Console access - attach whatever exists, it saves a diagnostic step.

Who gets the most from it

Businesses that have never had a structured SEO review, businesses that suspect their current agency's reporting is smoke, and businesses about to spend on a new website who want to know what the current one is worth first. If you have had a thorough independent review within the last year, you probably need execution rather than another audit - in which case look at how our engagements are priced and ask us directly.

What this is not

It is not an automated scan with your logo on it, not a teaser with the findings held hostage behind a sales call, and not the start of an email sequence. You request it, you receive it within 48 hours, and the next move is entirely yours. That is the whole design: an informed business is a better client, whether or not it becomes ours.

How to request it

Use the Send enquiry button on this site or the contact page, and include the three essentials above: website address, target area, priority services. You will have the written report within 48 hours. If you would rather ask a question first, the same button reaches the person who writes these reports - there is nobody else it could reach, because the team that audits is the team that does the work.
