Full SEO audit

A comprehensive SEO check of the site: technical, content, semantics, links and commercial factors — we map out as fully as possible what holds back search growth and give a plan of what to fix first. Honestly — an audit shows problems and priorities but does not raise rankings by itself: growth comes from fixing what is found.

Full SEO audit — overview

Full SEO audit — price, timeline & scope

A full SEO audit is a one-time deep diagnostic of the entire search side of the site, broader than a technical audit (see "Technical SEO audit"): beyond the technical part we look at content and semantics, structure and internal linking, the backlink profile, commercial and behavioral factors, and match to query intent. The goal is a complete picture of "why the site is not growing in search" and a prioritized plan. Honestly about the main point: an audit is diagnosis, not treatment and not a guarantee of results. It finds and ranks problems, but rankings and traffic grow when you (or we, as a separate service) fix what is found; the report itself changes nothing on the site. It is a snapshot in time: search algorithms, competitors and the site itself change, so the conclusions are valid "as of today", not forever. For completeness, access is needed: the webmaster panel (Yandex/Google), the analytics counter, ideally access to the CMS/code and logs; without access to your analytics the depth drops sharply — an audit "from the outside", on public data only, shows just the tip of the iceberg, and we warn about this upfront. Some data (links, visibility, competitors) comes from third-party services (Ahrefs, Serpstat, etc.) — these are estimates with error margins and their own limits, not absolute truth; the licenses for these services are paid and are not included in our price — we use your access or discuss a surcharge. We do not promise "top-3" or "+50% traffic": that depends on the niche, competition and whether you implement the recommendations. What you get: a report with problems by priority (critical / important / nice-to-have), specific recommendations for each and an impact estimate so it is clear what to tackle first; implementing the fixes is separate work. If the site is new, very small or you are just launching, a full audit may be excessive — sometimes a technical one is enough, and we will honestly say so. Picture this: instead of guessing "why traffic dropped", you get a list of 30 problems where the first five give the main effect, and you know what to fix first. The base price starts from 30,000 ₽; it depends on the site size, the number of areas and the access.

Problems we solve

  • Search traffic is not growing or is falling, and the cause is invisible without diagnosis.
  • You do not know what to fix first — technical, content or links.
  • Competitors outrank you and it is unclear why.
  • Different contractors give conflicting advice with no overall picture.

FAQ

  • Will rankings grow after the audit?

    The audit by itself does not raise rankings — it finds and prioritizes problems. Growth comes from fixing what is found, done by you or by us as a separate service. And "top-3" or "+X% traffic" cannot be promised: the result depends on the niche, competition and what you implement and how. We will honestly show what to fix and in what order.

  • Do you need access to the site?

    For a full audit — yes: the webmaster panel and analytics counter, ideally access to the CMS/code and logs. Without access we will audit from public data, but some conclusions (indexing, behavior, server errors) will be limited — we will honestly note that in the report.

  • How is a full audit different from a technical one?

    A technical one looks at how robots see the site (indexing, speed, errors). A full one adds content and semantics, structure, the backlink profile, commercial and behavioral factors and competitors — broader and deeper. If the site is small or new, a technical one is sometimes enough — we will honestly advise.
