● The problem

SEO is where agencies hide, because the results take months to show up.

You hired an agency so you wouldn't have to live inside Search Console. The trade-off is that the report they send is the only read you get on whether the work is moving anything.

Traffic is not the same as revenue. An agency can grow sessions on blog posts that never sell while your money pages stay invisible, and a rankings report full of easy, low-intent keywords can hide a year of going nowhere. It's an easy story to tell, and most agencies don't volunteer a more honest one.

It usually isn't fraud. It's an information gap that happens to favor the people you're paying, and this audit closes it. We pull your actual data and give you a straight assessment, with no pitch at the end and no retainer offer. We have nothing to sell you after.

● Who audits your account

An SEO operator runs the audit, not your agency.

I've spent 15 years ranking ecommerce and content sites, on the technical side and the content side both. I've recovered sites from algorithm hits, untangled crawl and indexation messes, and built content that ranks on the pages that actually drive revenue.

This is not a pitch deck, and I'm not trying to win your account. I work in this every day, which is exactly why I can open your account and see what's real, what's vanity traffic, and where a retainer is being spent on keywords that will never make you money. This is a flat fee. You keep the report, you make your own call, and we have no relationship to manage afterward.

● Track record

Fifteen years of rankings, not a sales deck.

The operator who has ranked sites across ecommerce, marketplaces, and content is the one reading your account. This is the experience you're actually buying.

● What we audit

Three things, looked at honestly.

Technical

Technical & crawl

If Google can't crawl and trust your site, nothing else you do ranks.

  • Indexation and crawl health
  • Core Web Vitals and site speed
  • Site architecture and internal linking
  • Crawl waste and wasted budget
  • Mobile and rendering issues
Content

Content & keywords

Are you ranking on the pages that sell, or just the ones that are easy?

  • Money-page keyword coverage
  • Search intent match
  • Content gaps vs. competitors
  • Keyword cannibalization
  • Thin and decaying content
Agency

Agency accountability

Are they reporting honestly? Is the work strategic or busywork?

  • Vanity traffic vs. revenue keywords
  • Backlink quality vs. spam
  • Work quality vs. retainer cost
  • What they should be doing that they're not
  • Verdict: stay, renegotiate, or leave
● The verdict

One straight call. Keep them, renegotiate, or fire them.

KEEP

They're doing strong work at a fair price. We show you exactly where, so you can double down with confidence.

RENEGOTIATE

Good in parts, overpaying in others. We hand you the specifics to fix the scope and the price.

FIRE

You're getting taken. We show you the evidence and what to do next, including how to brief a replacement.

The gap is demand your money pages already rank for, just not high enough to capture it.

18 pages losing rankings to content decay
4 pages cannibalizing the same keyword
2,100 URLs wasting crawl budget on thin content
9 quick wins one position off page 1

9 quick wins worth keeping

Money pages already ranking and a clean technical base are doing real work. We flag what's working so you protect it.

11 money keywords you're missing

High-intent terms your competitors own and you don't, plus pages decaying out of the index. We show you exactly which.

7 fixes, ranked by revenue

From a crawl-budget leak to thin product copy. Ordered by what earns most, first.

One plain-language verdict

No jargon, no hedging. A recommendation you could forward to your CEO and have it land.

● What you get

What we found, what it means, what to do.

Most audits are really pitch decks. They make everything look broken so the only way out is to hire the people who ran it. This isn't that. We have nothing to sell you at the end and no retainer waiting, so the report just tells you the truth: what's working, what isn't, and what to do next. A clear document, not a 40-slide deck, and it's yours to keep.

● Our guarantee

If we don't find three things worth acting on, you don't pay.

We've never opened an account and found nothing. If yours is the first, the audit is free.

● How it works

No sales pitch. No proposal process.

No spam. You get your keyword gap once we've run it, and nothing else unless you ask.

Questions, answered.

What access do you need?+

Read-only access to your Google Search Console and Google Analytics, your SEO tool if you use one like Ahrefs or Semrush, and your last two or three agency reports. It takes about 10 minutes to set up, and we walk you through it on the onboarding call. We never touch your site or change anything.

What if my agency is actually doing fine?+

Then you'll get proof that they are, plus a few fixes to push them further. Knowing for certain that your spend is well managed is worth $999 on its own.

Will you try to sell me your agency?+

No. There's no pitch and no retainer offer at the end. The audit is the entire product. If you ask us who else to talk to, we'll point you somewhere honest.

How fast is it really?+

Five business days from the moment we have access. If something will take longer, we tell you up front.

Who sees my data?+

Only us, read-only, and we delete our access the moment we deliver the audit. We never share your data with any agency.

Do you cover channels other than SEO?+

This audit covers SEO and content. We also run audits for email and SMS, Meta ads, Google ads, and CRO. Ask us and we'll point you to the right one.

Stop guessing. Get the verdict.

Five days from now you could know exactly whether your agency is earning their retainer. Or you could keep wondering.
