      What is technical SEO management?

      Think of your website like a new car. It’s roadworthy when you buy it, but over time things start to slip. Tyres wear down. Filters clog. Warning lights go unnoticed until performance suffers and breakdowns follow.

      Technical SEO management is the regular maintenance that keeps your site fast, healthy, and running at full potential. It’s the ongoing work that prevents lagging pages, crawl issues, or nasty surprises when Google next updates its algorithm. Instead of firefighting problems as they arise, technical SEO management keeps you one step ahead.

      The result? Smooth performance, stronger rankings, and a site that drives real business results.

      Six signs your business needs technical SEO support

      1. Nothing's actually changed since you paid for an SEO audit
      2. The tweaks you’re making don’t improve anything
      3. You know what needs fixing, but not how to do it
      4. SEO advice feels overwhelming and you want it handled
      5. Your developers are great, but SEO isn’t their thing
      6. You want someone who’ll actually make the changes

      What our technical SEO management covers

      Audit implementation

      Technical SEO audits are only useful if acted on. We take the recommendations from your audit – whether it was done by us or another agency – and implement them directly or guide your team through the fixes.

      By prioritising what matters most, we make sure improvements are carried out cleanly and correctly.

      Key Benefits
      • Fixes technical issues holding back performance
      • Unlockes the audit’s value
      • Removes guesswork from implementation

      Monthly health checks

      Websites are always changing: new pages get added, plugins update, and errors appear over time.

      Our regular site health checks catch these changes before they affect performance, keeping your site clean, functional, and search-friendly.

      Key Benefits
      • Stops small issues before they become big problems
      • Maintains site health
      • Supports consistent SEO performance

      Regular catchups

      We believe the best campaigns rely on a clear line of communication between client and agency.

      That’s why we schedule regular check-ins to talk you through results, discuss recent changes, and agree on next steps: so you’re always informed and your SEO stays aligned with business priorities.

      Key Benefits
      • Keeps technical SEO transparent and on track
      • Builds shared understanding of performance and priorities

      • Helps you stay ahead of competitors and algorithm changes

      Key Benefits
      • Fixes user experience issues
      • Preserves SEO value from old content

        Why choose Plaudit as your technical SEO partner?

        You’ve already invested in getting the foundations right. Now make sure they stay strong.

        For ongoing expert support that cuts through the noise and improvements that actually move the needle, let’s talk.

        Expert-led technical SEO

        When you invest in SEO you need to trust that the people delivering the work know what they’re doing. That means staying up to date with algorithm changes, knowing which tools to use (and how to interpret the data), and drawing on experience from previous campaigns to make smart, confident decisions.

        “Best practice” gets thrown around a lot, but without deep experience it’s just another buzzword. Our team knows what it really means: aligning your site with how search engines behave now, fixing what’s holding you back, and laying the technical foundation for lasting visibility, better performance, and more profit.

        Strategic and action-oriented

        You want to see progress, not just a list of recommendations. Too often, SEO agencies present a big, bold proposal and follow it up with minor tweaks and busywork that leave you wondering what you’re actually paying for.

        Our technical SEO is strategic, grounded in detailed analysis, and focused on what will really move the needle. So whether you’ve got an expensive audit gathering dust or you’re ready to swap a low-touch SEO setup for something more transparent and results-driven, we can help.

        Mapped to business-facing metrics

        Business owners and decision-makers often care more about leads, sales, and signups than search rankings and accessibility scores. That’s why we map all of our SEO actions to your business goals, and to the metrics that prove we’re helping you achieve them.

        Our monthly reports and catch-up calls are grounded in what actually matters to your business, not generic industry jargon. You’ll be able to track ROI with confidence, and see which actions are driving results that make a real difference to your bottom line.

        Backed by clear reporting

        You shouldn’t have to guess whether your SEO is working and whether your investment is paying off. Our reporting process is built around demonstrating, concisely and transparently, that our work is worth your while.

        Each report connects traditional SEO metrics like traffic, rankings, and visibility with your business goals, and regular check-ins ensure your goals are where you want them to be. You’ll have a clear eye on progress: what’s happening, why it matters, and where we’re headed next.

        Technical SEO FAQs

        Technical SEO is a crucial discipline that ensures your website’s infrastructure supports your visibility and performance goals. The objective is to make sure your website is fast, accessible, and easy for search engines to understand, because if they can’t interpret your pages correctly, they won’t rank them – no matter how strong your content is.

        Technical SEO focuses on what’s going on under the bonnet of your site and makes changes that let your content perform its best: driving more traffic, achieving higher visibility in search engines, and ultimately improving conversion rates and business-critical outcomes like leads, sales, and signups. Key metrics often influenced by technical SEO include page speed, crawlability, mobile responsiveness, and index coverage.

        Websites are complicated, and even one or two hard-to-spot issues – like broken links, poor site structure, or duplicate content – can weigh down your entire marketing effort. This is especially a risk if your site wasn’t built with SEO in mind, if piecemeal changes have been made over the years without considering the bigger picture, or if it hasn’t been touched at all in a while.

        Technical SEO fixes those foundations and keeps them strong, ensuring the rest of your digital marketing strategy can actually work. It also helps you stay aligned with search engine algorithm updates and evolving best practices, so your site doesn’t gradually fall behind while your competitors pull ahead.

        Technical SEO covers a wide range of areas, all aimed at improving your site’s structure and search performance. Some key components include:

        • Site speed: faster sites convert better and rank higher
        • Mobile optimisation: your site should look and work great on any device
        • Crawlability: ensuring search engines can access and interpret your pages
        • Internal linking: helping users and bots find your key content
        • Duplicate content resolution: preventing pages from competing against each other
        • Structured data: giving search engines extra context to boost visibility
        • Indexing: making sure the right pages are showing up in results.

        You shouldn’t have to worry about the jargon, though. The right agency will explain what’s going on in clear terms and show how it connects to your business goals, so you can understand and act on the data without needing to become an SEO expert.

        Look for a team that’s been around long enough to see how search has evolved, and stayed adaptable through it all. The right agency will be transparent about their process, tailor their approach to your business, and avoid overpromising quick wins or number-one rankings “guaranteed.”

        They’ll also explain things clearly, map their actions to your goals, and prioritise what will move the needle – not just what makes reports look busy. If you walk away from a call with more clarity and more control than you had before, you’re likely in good hands.
