Get Technical AuditWhat is Technical SEO?
Technical SEO is the process of optimizing your website's infrastructure to ensure search engines can efficiently crawl, understand, and index your content. While content and links get much of the SEO spotlight, technical issues can completely undermine your efforts if left unaddressed.
Think of technical SEO as the foundation of a house. No matter how beautiful the interior design (content) or how many people recommend it (links), if the foundation has cracks, the house won't stand. Technical SEO ensures your website's foundation is solid.
Our technical SEO services identify issues across site architecture, page speed, mobile optimization, indexing, structured data, security, and more—then provide clear solutions to fix them.
Why Technical SEO is Essential for Boston Businesses
Many Boston businesses invest significantly in content and marketing without realizing technical issues are holding them back. A single crawl error can prevent important pages from being indexed. Slow load times can cause Google to devalue your entire site. Duplicate content issues can dilute your ranking potential.
The competitive Boston market means you can't afford to leave performance on the table. If your site loads in 6 seconds while competitors load in 2 seconds, you're at a significant disadvantage—both for rankings and user conversions.
Technical SEO also becomes increasingly important as websites grow in complexity. E-commerce sites, multi-location businesses, and content-heavy sites all face unique technical challenges that require expert attention.

Frequently Asked Questions
Technical SEO refers to optimizing your website infrastructure to help search engines crawl, index, and render your pages efficiently. This includes site speed, mobile-friendliness, site architecture, structured data, HTTPS security, XML sitemaps, and fixing crawl errors.
Site speed is a direct Google ranking factor, and it significantly impacts user experience. Slow sites have higher bounce rates and lower conversion rates. Google's Core Web Vitals metrics—measuring loading, interactivity, and visual stability—are now essential for competitive rankings.
Core Web Vitals are Google's metrics for measuring user experience: Largest Contentful Paint (loading performance), First Input Delay (interactivity), and Cumulative Layout Shift (visual stability). Sites that pass Core Web Vitals thresholds have a ranking advantage.
We use a combination of tools including Google Search Console, Screaming Frog, Sitebulb, and PageSpeed Insights. We also perform manual testing to identify issues automated tools might miss, including JavaScript rendering problems and mobile usability issues.
A comprehensive technical audit typically takes 1-2 weeks depending on site size and complexity. We deliver a prioritized action plan with clear recommendations. Implementation timelines vary based on the issues discovered and your development resources.
