How to Do a Technical SEO Audit (3 Free Tools - Incl. Google SEO Checker)

I’ll show you how to do a technical SEO audit automatically. I’ll show three SEO tools that will specify what to improve on your site for a better Search Engine Optimziation.

They are all free and two of them are from Google (including Google SEO Checker). Each tool will reveal different SEO issues, so make sure to use all of them in combination.


00:00 Intro

00:33 Chrome Lighthouse (a.k.a. Google SEO Checker)

Alright, let’s start with a tool that is built right into your Google Chrome browser.

It’s called Chrome lighthouse. It’s basically like Google’s SEO checker.

and it’s a great place to start your audit and monitor your website’s progress.

So open your Google Chrome browser and find the lighthouse tab. Where you will be able to generate a report.


02:46 Ubersuggest SEO Audit tool

Let’s move on to the 2nd tool, which is Ubersuggest.

This tool can do so much more than just an SEO audit. But I’ll explore the other feature in another video.

But for the technical audit, just head to Google and search for “Ubersuggest”.

I recommend you sign up for Uversuggest because you can get more out of it when you are logged in. But it works even without logging in.


05:35 Google Search Console

And the third tool I’m going to cover is Google Search Console.
A super useful tool provided by Google.

If you don’t have access to Search Console, then check out the video that appears here above.

I have a step-by-step tutorial on how to signup for this tool and verify your website with Google.

So head to search console dashboard by… you guessed it…
GOOOGLE

Now Search console has many more useful features that you should know about because they help you with SEO.

I have a video that goes through all the key features. And how I use them to improve your ranking in Google search.    • New Google Search Console Explained &...

Some people might think that doing a technical SEO audit is hard, but actually most professionals use tools to do the audit automatically for them.

In this video, I will share the tools I use to do a free SEO audit, and I think most beginners can use these SEO tools to improve their Search Engine Optimization efforts.

I wouldn’t say that my website is the most SEO optimization but I’ve run tools like Ubersuggest and Chrome’s lighthouse (a.k.a Google’s SEO checker tool) on my website and most pages pass the test. Woohoo! :)
