KEYWORD TARGETING
The meta keywords tag is a tag which can be used to highlight
keywords and keyword phrases which the web page is targeting.
Please note that the meta keyword tag is no longer used by the
major search engines.
Analysis
[clients web address] still uses the keyword meta tag (eg. )
Recommendation
Given that Google (and most likely other major search engines)
no longer use the keyword meta tag, I would remove it site wide.
Please see the following article for more information regarding
the keyword meta tag.

TITLE META TAGS


The title tag is an element which defines the title of the
document. Title tags define the actual content of the web page
and hold particular importance within the search engines. The
title tag is the blue clickable text that is displayed within the
search results. It is often recommended that the target keywords
be present within the title tags for SEO purposes.
Analysis

Works Media SEO

Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW


AUS

Pagination within the Blog carries unnecessary and


somewhat non useful title tags (eg

There are inconsistencies with branding (eg title tag) Other


pages show no branding at all)

Many pages have excessively long title tags that exceed the
recommended limit of 65 characters (eg )

Many blog entry pages unnecessarily repeat the same


(exceeding long) title tags (eg. )

Some pages contain title tags that are in uppercase instead


of the recommended lower case (eg. )

Many pages (infact a total of XX reported) share the same

title tags (See Webmaster tools > Search Appearance >
HTML Improvements > Duplicate title tags

Many pages have short title tags (less than 30 characters)

Many pages have non descriptive title tags (eg.)

Recommendation

Implement a standard page title the entire website. (eg. )

Many title tags are far too over optimized. Tighten up


relevancy of all title tags. Title tags should reflect the pages
subject matter

Branding should be consistent following the title tags site


wide (eg. )

Remove any information that is not helpful to the search


engines

All pages MUST have unique title tags

Ensure all title tags are between 30 and 65 characters in


length

META DESCRIPTION TAGS


The meta tag description tag is an element which provides a
description of what the page is about to the search engines. Its
a brief overview of the content that lies within the page itself.
This tag is important as it is often used within the actual search
results beneath the web address. Whats particularly important
about the description tag is that it can be leveraged in many
instances as a call to action.
Analysis

There are numerous pages with no meta description tags


(eg. )

There are a few meta description tags that are excessively


long (longer than the recommended 160 characters)

Many meta description tags are too short and non descriptive
(eg. )
Recommendation

Add meta description tags to pages that do not have them


(see above)

Reduce the length of meta description tags to no longer than


160 characters across the entire site

Increase the length of short meta description tags

Tighten up relevancy of all meta description tags. Description


tags should reflect the pages subject matter

Consider meta description tags a call to action within the


serps. Entice users to click through.

Either manually write unique descriptions per page or


consider using the first 150 characters from onpage text as
your pages description tags.

HEADER TAGS
Header tags are heading tags in HTML. There are 6 predefined
headings, ranging from <H1> to <H6> which tells a visitor and
search engines the topic of the web page.
Analysis

The home page contains an excessively long H1 tag (in


excess of the recommended 70 character length)

There are a large number of duplicate H1 tags (eg.)

Many pages do not have H1 tags. (eg. )

Some pages contain quite vague H1 tags


Recommendation

All pages site wide should have relevant H1 tags

Long H1 tags should be shortened to no more than 70


characters

Pages with H1 tags that are vague in nature, should be


changed to better reflect the information on the page

SUBSTANTIVE & UNIQUE CONTENT


Both the quality and quantity of unique content published onsite
are some of the major contributors to the successful ranking of
any given website. It is imperative that your content is unique, of
high quality and updated regularly.
Analysis

The majority of content onsite is over optimized, and as a


result reads poorly.

The site lacks structure in terms of information architecture.


Most notably in the form of a well presented blog.

Your Facebook page [facebook page here] appears to be


frequently active with useful and informative content. This
content needs to be part of your overall content syndication
strategy.

There is a substantial amount of content published across


the website that is not within a useable framework (and in
places is very confusing) This is most likely costing
conversions.

The news section contains a large amount of content,


which is great, however the impact of this is lost due to a
number of reasons (duplicate title tags, incorrect usage of H1
tags, and most notably over optimisation)

Content is being displayed as full articles within the browse


view.

Some content published onsite is thin (lack of images,


videos, audio etc)

Content is over-interlinked in places

There doesnt appear to be any standards in terms of textual


formatting (eg bold, italicised, quotes, etc)

Content published onsite appears to be unique

Article lengths vary. Some are good, others too short.

Recommendation

Works Media SEO

Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW


AUS

Reduce over optimization of content site-wide. Do not


continue to publish content in this manner.

| 0438 187 515| john@worksmedia.com.au |


worksmedia.com.au

page

SEO Audit Report

All news and updates need to be centralised under one tab


(menu option) that reads blog. (eg. )

The majority of content onsite will need to either be


completely rewritten or removed, as it reads poorly due to
over optimization. I would recommend removing most of it.

All of the content that is being continually published on your


Facebook page MUST originate from your own website FIRST.
You have fantastic content on there (testimonials etc)

There needs to be a dramatic restructuring of the website in


order to present the information without confusion.

Present each entry to the blog as a summary view on this


page (eg. )

The blogs summary view page needs to improved


dramatically in order to increase user engagement and
potentially lower bounce rates

Add dates to your blog entries. (within the full view) Fresh
content is valued highly by the search engines.

Ensure formatting is standard site wide. Some pages show


green subheadings whilst others show black (not a big issue
but sitewide standards most definitely help)

All entries to the blog must have UNIQUE and RELEVANT


titles, descriptions, H1 tags images, written content, photos
etc.

All content needs to be presented in a more visually


engaging manner. Images, template examples, videos,
photos, testimonials etc.

Content should be engaging and share worthy

Content needs to be interlinked, however at present it is over


linked. (eg.) This needs to be scaled back, and in places fixed
as it is incorrect. (eg. relevant anchor text should point to
relevant pages)

Webmaster tools shows correct terminology (or themed


words) for your sites content (eg.)

KEYWORD DENSITY
A measure of search engine relevancy based on how prominent
keywords appeared within the content of a page. Ideal keyword
density for keyword is 1 2%. Keyword density assures the
content is keyword rich and it increases the content and meta
tag relevancy.
Analysis

Keyword density for home page appears excessively high for


the terms xxx (10.12%) and xxx, to a lesser extent
(8.05%)

Keyword density across various site pages appears to be


excessively high. (8-10% and higher) Infact it reads
unnaturally and needs to be rewritten in most places.
Acceptable range is 2-3%

Keyword density appears over inflated on many pages due to


the usage of the meta keyword tag
Recommendation

Stop using the keyword meta tag. This will be inflating your
keyword density enormously

It appears onsite content is written for search engines rather


than humans. Publish content for humans, optimize for
search engines.

Keyword density needs to be reduced site wide

IMAGE ALT TEXT


The alt attribute allows web pages to assign specific text as the
"alternative" content for images for those that cannot view the
images themselves. This can be search engine crawlers or textonly web browsers.
Analysis
Image alt text is over optimized
Recommendation

Works Media SEO

Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW


AUS

Reduce alt text on images to no more than 2 or 3 words. 15


words in an alt text is unnecessary and seen as keyword
stuffing

increased traffic and more inbound links.
Analysis

CONVENTIONS

CANONICAL URL CHECK


The one authoritatively correct URL for a resource. When a
resource can be accessed via multiple URLs, a canonical URL
should be identified. All alias URLs for a resource should redirect
to the canonical URL to enforce its authority.
Analysis

Canonical urls appear to be in place

There are numerous duplicate pages causing canonical


indexation issues

Recommendation

For pages such as (eg. ) canonical urls should be


implemented

Recommendation

Set the preferred domain within Googles Webmaster Tools. I


would recommend setting it to [clients web address]

Set a 301 redirect within your htaccess file and push it to the
preferred domain (eg. ) This will ensure all link equity is
passed to the same destination, and prevent any duplicate
issues

Domain authority seems lower than expected. I would


attribute this to be related to low quality links/domains that
are pointing to the site, or the issues that exist with the
website in its current form.

URLS & NAMING CONVENTIONS


As with the actual URL itself, its important that your sites files
and folders carry subject matter relevance. This can be achieved
by using carefully chosen keyword rich categories and page
names when developing the website.
Analysis

The following page has a non sensical url (eg. )

There are a number of pages that use category as the


category subdirectory name (eg. )

There are a large number of pages that hang directly off the
root (eg. )

There are a number of duplicate urls (pages). This is due to


both the category and tag feature being used. (eg. )

You have a large number of pages appearing within Googles


index that contain unnecessary numbers, such as -2
(eg. ) This is due to using both the tag AND category element
together

INTERNAL ANCHOR TEXT


Internal anchor text is vital to carry link weight onsite. Its
important to have all internal links use correct anchor, link and
descriptive text on all hyperlinks that point to appropriately
named pages of relevance.
Analysis

There are an excessive number of links within the footer that


appear to be targeting certain pages on site.

The main navigation requires a restructure that is more


logical

There is an excessive amount of internal linking between


pages, especially within the news section.

Recommendation

Works Media SEO

Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW

Overall internal linking is excessive. The vast majority of links


need to be removed or corrected.

Links within the footer need to be turned down somewhat.

NAVIGATION
Navigation is vital not only from a user perspective, but also to

Analysis

Navigation is somewhat unorganized

Navigation is uniform site wide (remains static between


pages)

Recommendation

Works Media SEO

Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW


AUS

Always work towards fewer menu options. Fewer options lead


to better conversions.

I would restructure the main navigation and simplify the


options to include home, about, services, packages, faq,
blog, and contact. Fewer options are always much better.

You *could* track user behaviour with Crazy Egg to further


determine most profitable layout/navigational structure

Always work towards fewer, highly focused menu options.


Fewer options lead to better conversions

Guide users with a strong call to action where required, using


a sitewide navigational link (enquire, book now, shop, call us
etc)

4. CRAWLING,
INDEXING &
TECHNICAL
ISSUES

SITE CRAWLABILITY
The site is checked with a search engine simulator to ensure
there are no errors. Proper crawlability ensures all pages are
indexed by the major search engines.
Analysis

Google Webmaster Tools is showing numerous crawl errors

There are numerous soft 404 page not found errors (eg. )

XX pages showing as not found within Webmaster tools.

Google Webmaster Tools is displaying crawl rates as high as


1,420ms

Here is an example of what the user might see when landing


on a potentially non existent page. [clients web address]

Google search displays XX results out of XXX before


displaying In order to show you the most relevant results,
we have omitted some entries very similar to the XX already
displayed. If you like, you can repeat the search with the
omitted results included.

Recommendation

Create a custom 404 page and provide users with options


(rather than just landing them on a page not found page.
This creates a poor experience for searchers and search
engines. More information
https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/181708?
hl=en&ctx=tltp and
https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/93641

You need to eliminate any non essential pages from being


crawled and indexed. Set them all to noindex, nofollow

Stop using the tag option. This is creating far too many
additional non essential pages

Work towards lowering your crawl rate (milliseconds) down to


200-300 average. This should be achieved by doing as
suggested above, then reassessing over time

The speed of which your website loads can have a direct affect

Site speed within Google Analytics indicates an average page


load time (site wide) of X seconds

Google has given [clients web address] a page speed score


of XX/100 for mobile devices and XX/100 for desktop devices

Site speed could be improved

Recommendation

Site speed plays a major role in rankings. Site speed could be


improved by enabling caching

Remove any non essential elements from the website that


may be causing slower load times

Specify image dimensions. Many images lack the height


width parameters

Reduce or consolidate calls to javascript files

Call style sheets before calling javascript to allow faster


loading

Leverage browser caching. Setting an expiry date or a


maximum age in the HTTP headers for static resources
instructs the browser to load previously downloaded
resources from local disk rather than over the network.

One of the most important measures for a website is its link
profile. Having links to your website from authoritative resources
on the Internet helps improve your search engine placement.
This is mostly because its become more about the quality of the

There are a large number of inbound links coming from low


quality websites

It appears that the website has had SEO performed on it at


some point
