Do I Really Need A Technical SEO Site Audit?

ABSOLUTELY!

A comprehensive audit from our technical SEO experts will crawl every corner of your site, just as a search spider would, to identify the technical glitches that turn off visitors and stop you from grabbing great Google rankings – thus building a picture of your SEO performance so that you know what needs to be fixed.

Your site may be performing well, but there’s always room for improvement – Position One on the SERPs page receives more than thirty times the traffic of Position Ten, whilst your traffic can double with every two positions climbed across the SERPs. Page one is good, but you should aim for great – your SEO campaign should be targeting that number one spot to drive customers to your site and boost your sales. And a technical SEO audit will create a strategy that gets you there.

Competition for those vital Top 5 SERP spots is now hotter than ever, so your audit will identify exactly why your website traffic or conversions have dropped; transforming problems into opportunities that propel you back up the rankings and drive sales.

I was impressed by their website development work provided for a number of other companies. I have found Maratopia to be an ideal business partner. They are really good at listening, providing clarity, and only then provided solutions meeting my business objectives. They also adapted easily during the development as my business needs became more tightly defined. Furthermore, the work was completed without fuss, on time and to budget, which is a major consideration for any business. In addition, developing an ongoing business relationship is important to me. I can leave technology development and ongoing website management to Maratopia.

Friendly & helpful team.

Janet Carr

We needed a brand new website, at short notice, and with a limited budget.

However, we also wanted great functionality, plenty of room for development and the ability to easily update content ourselves.

Maratopia came up with a solution for us which was just what we were looking for.

Chrisi and Tom were absolute stars at guiding us through the process and delivering on time.

Suzel Taber-Shaw, Scandinavia Only

Persistent, practical and patient!

Excellent service – we are delighted with our new website.

Rupert Ratcliffe, Managing Director of LONPROP Limited

Our online store was outdated, and wasn’t performing very well. Maratopia proposed a creative solution, provided an extremely competitive quote, and completed the project within 10 days. Conversion and revenue have been up substantially every month since the redeveloped site was launched, and I am extremely happy with their work.

Jason Morrison, Managing Director, Riso Gallo UK

Having worked alongside the agency for a number of years, I only have positive things to say. In particular, Amber (who I have dealt with on a monthly basis) has proven to be a great help in assisting me with in-depth data regarding our website ranking, SEO overview and much more. Would highly recommend.

Lisa Clay

We instructed Maratopia to do an SEO audit of our websites.
They provided a very thorough report and were really impressed with the quality of the work.

There were clear identifications of the pain points and the actions required to solve this problem.
We had a few chats with them during the process and they helped us understanding more about SEO.
After the initial work with them,we are still in talks to continue our collaboration.
