Technical SEO
A fast, crawlable foundation that Google understands.
Technical SEO is the foundation everything else stands on. If Google can't crawl, understand and index your site efficiently, even the best content goes to waste. I find and fix the technical barriers holding you back.
Crawling and indexing
I make sure the right pages get crawled and indexed — and the wrong ones don't. Robots, sitemaps, canonical tags and internal structure are put in order.
Speed and Core Web Vitals
Speed is both a ranking factor and a conversion factor. I optimise load times, LCP, CLS and INP so both users and Google are happy.
Analysis, testing and structured data
From log-file analysis to structured data (schema) — I review the entire technical surface and prioritise what moves the needle most.
Technical SEO is the foundation everything else stands on. If Google can't crawl, understand and index your site efficiently, even the best content goes to waste. At the same time, tech and UX have merged — speed and stability directly affect both rankings and conversion.
I review the entire technical surface and deliver a prioritised action plan your developer can start on right away. The focus is on what moves the needle most: crawling, indexing, speed and structured data.
Crawl budget is an overlooked resource. Even mid-size sites can, without knowing it, spend their crawl budget on hundreds of thin tag pages, parameter URLs or filter URLs, while their key commercial pages get crawled far too rarely. I analyse log files and Search Console data so we know exactly where Google spends its time — and reroute it toward what actually needs to be indexed.
Core Web Vitals have become more than a technical score. Slow pages punish both conversion directly and rankings indirectly. I work closely with developers on real improvements to LCP, INP and CLS — not just a pretty number in Search Console, but concrete actions the user actually feels: faster images, less JavaScript and a sensible priority on what shows first.
Structured data is often the fastest path to better visibility without new content. With correct Schema.org implementation — Product, FAQ, Review, HowTo, Organization — your pages appear with rich results that lift CTR and make you visible in AI answers. I validate everything through both the Rich Results Test and ongoing checks in Search Console, so it's not just added, but also accepted by Google.
Indexing signals need to line up. Conflicting canonicals, wrong noindex tags, heavy redirect chains and technical duplicates are silent killers eating into your site's visibility without anyone noticing. I bring all these signals into a single review, prioritised by how much they actually affect visibility and traffic.
Finally, I put monitoring in place so you don't have to live in fear of the next technical-SEO surprise. Ongoing alerts on crawl errors, Core Web Vitals regressions and indexing dips catch problems before they turn into traffic losses. Technical SEO is never a project you can finish — it's a foundation that needs continuous maintenance.
It's not a project you tick off — it's a foundation you maintain. Without monitoring, every new release, every new app and every campaign becomes a potential source of silent traffic loss.
- Full crawl with Screaming Frog or Sitebulb
- Log file analysis: where does Google actually spend its crawl budget?
- Core Web Vitals via CrUX + PageSpeed Insights
- Search Console: coverage, indexing errors
- Structured data validated through Rich Results Test
- Redirect chains and loops mapped and shortened
- Fix what affects crawl and indexing first
- Prioritise fixes by impact × pages affected
- Track Core Web Vitals as an ongoing KPI
- Test all schema in Rich Results before deploy
- Fix everything at once (give devs a sequence)
- Ignore redirect chains longer than 2 hops
- Rely on 'average speed' as your only metric
- Assume structured data works without validating

Core Web Vitals: targets and meaning
| Metric | Good value | Measures |
|---|---|---|
| LCP | < 2.5 s | How fast main content appears |
| INP | < 200 ms | How fast the page responds |
| CLS | < 0.1 | Visual stability during load |
