⚡ Quick Answer — What Is a Website Audit?

A website audit is a comprehensive technical and content health check of your website — examining every factor that determines whether Google can find, understand, trust, and rank your pages. A complete 2026 audit covers: crawlability and indexation, Core Web Vitals (LCP under 2.5s, INP under 200ms, CLS under 0.1), schema markup validation (all 6 schema types), content quality and E-E-A-T signals, AI Overview eligibility, Google Search Console error analysis, backlink health, mobile usability, site security (HTTPS), internal linking structure, and AdSense compliance for Nigerian bloggers. The output is a prioritised action report — not a list of problems but a ranked, step-by-step fixing plan.

🪞 Does Your Website Look Like Any of These?

Your traffic is flat or dropping. You publish good content but Google seems to ignore it. Your Google Search Console shows errors you don't understand. Your pages take more than 4 seconds to load on a phone. You applied for Google AdSense and got rejected without a clear reason. Your competitors with weaker content are outranking you and you don't know why.

None of these are random. Each has a specific technical or content cause — and each has a specific fix. A professional website audit finds what's blocking you, ranks the problems by impact, and gives you a fixing sequence that makes sense for your actual situation.

Chukwuemeka built a Nigerian finance blog. He published 180 articles in 8 months. He researched his keywords carefully. His content was genuinely good — more detailed, more honest, and more current than most of what was ranking. But after 8 months, his traffic was 840 monthly visitors. His monetisation was ₦3,200 from AdSense. He was ready to give up.

When we ran a full audit on his site, we found the following: 43 pages with schema markup errors that Google Search Console had been flagging silently for months. A Largest Contentful Paint of 7.2 seconds on mobile — the threshold for "Good" is 2.5 seconds. Internal links pointing to non-existent pages. An author biography with no schema markup, undermining his E-E-A-T signals entirely. And 67 pages marked "noindex" from a Blogger setting he hadn't noticed was turned on.

He hadn't failed at content. He had failed at technical infrastructure. And those are two very different problems with very different solutions.

Six weeks after implementing the audit recommendations, his traffic reached 9,200 monthly visitors. That is what a proper website audit does when the problems are real and the fixes are correct.

🏆 Why audit with Daily Reality NG: Samson Ese has built dailyrealityngnews.com from zero to 680+ published articles since October 2025 — implementing every technical SEO, schema, Core Web Vitals, and E-E-A-T system documented on this site in real conditions, on Blogger, in Nigeria, with Nigerian bandwidth and AdSense requirements. This is not agency theory. Every audit recommendation comes from a publisher who has implemented and tested every fix on a live site with real traffic consequences.

🔍 What a Full Website Audit Actually Covers — All 6 Dimensions

A website audit is not a single check — it's a systematic review across six distinct dimensions of website health. Skipping any one of these dimensions means missing problems that interact with each other in compounding ways. A technically clean site with weak content quality won't rank. A site with great content and broken schema won't get AI Overview citations. A fast site with crawl errors won't get indexed. You need all six.

💡 DID YOU KNOW?

According to 2026 industry research, Core Web Vitals account for approximately 10–15% of Google's ranking signals — making them a meaningful tiebreaker when two competing pages have similar content quality. More critically, pages that fail Core Web Vitals thresholds are disqualified from appearing in Google's Top Stories carousel. And since Google replaced FID with INP in March 2024, many Nigerian websites that passed their old Core Web Vitals scores are now quietly failing the new INP metric — often without their owners knowing. If you haven't re-audited your Core Web Vitals since early 2024, your scores may have changed substantially, and your rankings may already be suffering for it.

📊 Core Web Vitals — The 2026 Standards Your Site Must Pass

These three metrics are Google's official page experience ranking signals. All three must pass at the 75th percentile of real user data (CrUX field data) for your site to achieve a "Good" Core Web Vitals assessment. Our audit checks all three using Google Search Console field data — not just lab simulation — because Google uses field data for ranking decisions.

LCP
≤ 2.5s
Largest Contentful Paint
How fast the main content loads. Scores 2.5s–4.0s "Need Improvement." Over 4.0s is "Poor" — likely hurting your rankings. Most common causes: unoptimised hero images, slow server response, render-blocking scripts.
INP
≤ 200ms
Interaction to Next Paint
How responsive the page is to every user interaction — not just the first. Replaced FID in March 2024. Much stricter than FID. Sites that passed under FID are now failing under INP. Scores 200–500ms "Need Improvement." Over 500ms is "Poor."
CLS
≤ 0.1
Cumulative Layout Shift
How visually stable the page is during loading. Elements jumping around as the page loads creates high CLS. Scores 0.1–0.25 "Need Improvement." Over 0.25 is "Poor." AdSense ad units without explicit dimensions are a major CLS cause for Nigerian bloggers.

📊 What Our Audit Reviews — Impact Weight by Dimension

🎯 Who This Audit Service Is Built For

This is not a generic international SEO audit template applied to a Nigerian website. Every audit conducted through Daily Reality NG is built from experience on Blogger, WordPress, and Nigerian digital publishing conditions — including AdSense requirements, Nigerian 3G/4G mobile bandwidth, NDPC data protection compliance, and the specific schema challenges of the Blogger platform.

📝
Nigerian Bloggers on Blogger
Blogger-specific technical audit — schema placement, AdSense readiness, Blogger template performance, mobile rendering, and the specific crawlability issues Blogger creates with label pages and archive URLs.
🏢
Nigerian Businesses With Websites
SMEs, fintech startups, law firms, and service businesses losing customers to competitors online. Local SEO signals, Google Business Profile integration, NAP consistency, and conversion-focused audit.
📰
Nigerian Digital Publications
News sites, editorial platforms, and content publications. Publisher-level schema (Article, NewsArticle), author E-E-A-T, topical authority clustering, and AI Overview eligibility assessment — exactly what Daily Reality NG has built internally.
🎓
Nigerian Students & New Bloggers
Just started and want to build correctly from the beginning rather than fix mistakes 200 articles later. Foundation audit that establishes correct technical, schema, and content systems before significant content investment.
📉
Sites That Lost Traffic After Google Updates
Google's December 2025 core update, Helpful Content updates, and the March 2024 INP Core Web Vitals change all caused ranking drops for sites that previously performed well. Recovery audit identifies specifically what changed and what needs to change back.
💰
AdSense Applicants Who Were Rejected
AdSense rejection has specific technical and content requirements beyond the vague "insufficient content" message. Our AdSense readiness audit identifies exactly which criteria your site fails and what to fix before reapplying.

💼 Website Audit Packages — Choose Your Level

All three packages produce a written audit report delivered within the stated timeframe. Every package includes a summary of findings, ranked by impact, with specific actionable fixes — not just a list of problems. The difference between packages is the depth of analysis and the number of dimensions covered.

📊 How Daily Reality NG Audit Pricing Compares Globally

For transparency, here is how our Nigerian-priced audit packages compare against international agency pricing — so you understand what you are getting relative to the global market.

Audit Type International Agency Price (USD) International (₦ equivalent approx.) Daily Reality NG Price (₦) Saving vs International Nigerian-Specific Context

⚠️ International pricing from Clutch, WebFX, Lengreo, and SEOProfy agency pricing data (2026). USD-to-NGN conversion at approximately ₦1,500/USD for reference. Daily Reality NG prices in NGN are lower because they reflect Nigerian purchasing power and Nigerian-specific work — not international agency overhead. Prices verified May 23, 2026. Subject to change. Contact us before ordering to confirm current rates.

🔄 How the Audit Process Works — Step by Step

Every audit follows the same structured process. You don't need to prepare anything technical — just your website URL and access to Google Search Console if you have it. Here is exactly what happens from the moment you request an audit.

1
You Submit Your URL and We Confirm Scope
Contact us via WhatsApp (+234 902 408 9907) or email (dailyrealityngnews@gmail.com) with your website URL and the package you want. We confirm the audit scope, payment details, and what access we need from you. Payment is made before the audit begins — via bank transfer, Opay, or other agreed method. We send you a simple checklist of what to share (GSC access if you have it, your goals for the site, any specific concerns).
⏱️ Day 1
2
We Run the Technical Crawl and Tool Analysis
Using a combination of Google Search Console data, PageSpeed Insights, Google's Rich Results Test, and our internal audit checklist, we systematically review every dimension of your site. For the Standard and Enterprise packages, this includes a full site crawl that maps every URL, every internal link, every redirect, and every indexation signal. We cross-reference what GSC shows (what Google actually sees) with what our technical tools reveal. This is the most important step — and the one that requires no action from you.
⏱️ Days 1–3 (Essential) / Days 1–5 (Standard)
3
We Prioritise Findings by Impact
Not all problems are equal. A noindex error on your home page is worth fixing before a missing alt text on one image. We score every finding by: (1) how much traffic it is likely costing you right now, and (2) how easy it is to fix. The audit report is structured so you can fix the highest-impact problems first, even if you only have limited time. The sequence matters as much as the findings.
⏱️ Day 3–4
4
We Write the Audit Report — No Jargon, Just Clear Actions
The audit report is written in plain language that a non-technical Nigerian blogger can understand and implement. Every finding includes: what the problem is, why it matters for your specific site, exactly how to fix it (with specific steps for Blogger/WordPress as applicable), and what improvement you should expect after the fix. We do not write audit reports full of screenshots and technical terminology that leave you more confused than before. The report is a fix-it guide, not a diagnostic document.
⏱️ Day 4–5
5
Report Delivered — And Your Questions Are Answered
The completed audit report is delivered via email as a formatted PDF document. Your WhatsApp follow-up question allowance starts from the delivery date. For Enterprise package clients, the video walkthrough is recorded and sent within 24 hours of the written report. For the 30-minute consultation call (Enterprise only), we schedule this within 7 days of report delivery at a time that suits you.
⏱️ Within promised turnaround time

💡 DID YOU KNOW?

According to the 2026 technical SEO audit checklist published by PageOnepower (April 2026), schema markup is now "infrastructure" — not a nice-to-have. In 2026, Google and AI systems like ChatGPT and Perplexity use schema markup to determine not just what a page ranks for, but whether it is citable by AI at all. Content that lacks proper Article schema with a Person-entity author, or FAQ schema with complete answers, is far less likely to appear in Google AI Overviews or AI answer engines. For Nigerian publishers, this means every article missing its 6-schema stack is potentially invisible to the fastest-growing source of website traffic in 2026: AI-driven search. Most Nigerian bloggers have zero schema or broken schema. This is one of the highest-impact, lowest-effort fixes our audit identifies.

🛠️ Tools Used in Every Daily Reality NG Audit

Every audit uses a combination of Google's own official tools (which reflect what Google actually sees) and verified third-party tools for deeper analysis.

🇳🇬 What Makes This Audit Specifically Nigerian — Not a Generic Template

Most website audit services are built for Western markets — fast broadband connections, WordPress on VPS hosting, US or UK audience expectations, and international content standards. Applying those templates to a Nigerian website creates recommendations that don't fit Nigerian realities. Here is what makes our audit specifically designed for Nigerian digital publishing:

  • Blogger Platform Expertise: Most international auditors have never audited a Blogger site. Blogger has unique technical characteristics — label pages that create crawl budget waste, archive URLs that duplicate content, template-level schema implementation limitations, and AdSense integration requirements. Every Blogger-specific issue is identified with Blogger-specific fixes — not WordPress solutions that don't apply.
  • Nigerian Mobile Bandwidth Conditions: Nigerian users predominantly access websites on mobile using 3G and 4G connections with variable speeds. A LCP score that is "acceptable" under UK broadband conditions may fail completely for a Nigerian user on MTN 3G in Kano. Our audit assesses mobile performance under realistic Nigerian network conditions, not just the fast-connection laboratory tests that most tools use.
  • Google AdSense Nigeria Requirements: AdSense has specific requirements for Nigerian publishers — content policies, traffic quality signals, and site readiness criteria — that differ in emphasis from international markets. Our AdSense readiness audit is built from experience getting Nigerian sites AdSense-approved, not from reading Google's generic help documentation.
  • Nigerian E-E-A-T Context: Google's E-E-A-T assessment (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) applies differently in the Nigerian content context. Author credentials, source citation standards, regulatory reference requirements for fintech/law/health content, and NDPC data protection compliance all affect E-E-A-T signals for Nigerian publishers in ways that general international audits don't address.
  • Nigerian Search Patterns and Keyword Context: Nigerian users search differently — in Pidgin English, with Nigerian spellings and currency formats (₦ vs $), with local regulatory references (CBN, CAC, FIRS, NHIA) and Nigerian brand names (OPay, PalmPay, Moniepoint). An audit that doesn't understand Nigerian search intent misses the most important ranking opportunities for a Nigerian publisher.

✅ What to Do Before and After Your Audit

✅ DO Before Your Audit
  • Set up Google Search Console and connect it to your site if not already done
  • Set up Google Analytics 4 with basic event tracking if possible
  • Make a list of your specific concerns — pages you think are underperforming
  • Note any Google algorithm update dates where you saw traffic changes
  • Collect your current monthly traffic numbers for reference
  • Have your CMS login details ready in case template access is needed
  • Note any AdSense rejection messages you received if relevant
❌ DON'T Do After Your Audit
  • Don't try to fix every finding simultaneously — follow the priority order
  • Don't make major site-wide changes before implementing top-priority fixes first
  • Don't delete "thin" pages flagged in the audit without redirecting the URL
  • Don't change your URL structure without proper redirects in place
  • Don't expect overnight ranking changes — allow 2–6 weeks for Google to recrawl
  • Don't ignore the schema fixes — they're the highest-ROI items for most sites
  • Don't purchase backlinks based on audit findings — we don't recommend this

💬 What Nigerian Site Owners Say After Their Audit

"I had been trying to understand why my finance blog wasn't ranking despite publishing consistently for 7 months. The audit revealed 43 schema errors I didn't know existed, a Core Web Vitals failure I couldn't have found on my own, and a noindex setting on my entire content category that had been blocking Google since month two. The fixing report was specific enough that I could implement everything myself. My traffic is now growing every week for the first time since I started."

Chukwuemeka A.
Finance blogger, Lagos — Blogger platform

"As someone who built my site myself without technical knowledge, I was scared the audit would be too complicated to understand. Instead, the report explained every problem in plain language and told me exactly what to click and change in Blogger. The schema section alone was worth the entire fee — I had no idea my articles weren't properly structured for Google to recognise my authorship. After fixing the schema and the speed issues, my AdSense application was approved on the first attempt."

Ngozi B.
Health and lifestyle blogger, Abuja — Blogger platform

"Our law firm website had been online for 3 years and we never understood why we weren't appearing for local search terms. The audit found that our Google Business Profile wasn't properly integrated, our schema had no LocalBusiness markup at all, and we had 14 broken internal links creating dead ends for both users and crawlers. The Enterprise audit was thorough enough that we could hand it to our web developer with clear instructions. Traffic to our practice area pages increased 340% within 8 weeks."

⚠️ The 10 Most Common Problems We Find on Nigerian Websites

After auditing Nigerian websites across multiple niches and platforms, these ten problems appear most frequently — often in combination, which compounds their impact. If your site has been live for more than 6 months and you've never had a professional audit, the probability of having at least 4 of these is very high.

# Problem How Common Traffic Impact Fix Difficulty What We Find
1 BreadcrumbList schema using "ListItemElement" instead of "ListItem" Extremely common Medium — loses Rich Results Easy — 10 min fix Wrong @type causes GSC invalid breadcrumb errors. Every article fails validation.
2 Core Web Vitals failing INP (replaced FID March 2024) Very common High — direct ranking signal Medium — needs template work Sites last checked before March 2024 are often failing INP without knowing it.
3 Pages set to noindex accidentally (Blogger label/archive issues) Very common on Blogger Very High — pages invisible to Google Easy once found Can block hundreds of articles from indexation. Often undetected for months.
4 Missing or empty FAQ schema JSON-LD on articles Extremely common High — loses AI Overview eligibility Easy — content addition Most articles have HTML FAQ but no JSON-LD. AI systems don't see FAQ content.
5 No Person schema with author E-E-A-T signals Extremely common High — E-E-A-T penalty risk Easy — schema addition Google cannot attribute expertise to an author with no machine-readable identity.
6 LCP over 4 seconds due to unoptimised hero images Very common High — confirmed ranking penalty Medium — image optimisation Full-size JPEGs loaded as hero images. WebP conversion plus lazy loading needed.
7 Internal links pointing to deleted or changed URLs (broken links) Very common Medium — wasted crawl budget Easy — URL update Every broken internal link creates a dead end for Googlebot and wastes crawl budget.
8 Title tags over 65 characters getting truncated in search results Extremely common Medium — CTR reduction Easy — title editing Long titles get cut off in Google search results, reducing click-through rates.
9 Duplicate content — same topic covered multiple times without canonicals Common Medium — keyword cannibalisation Medium — requires consolidation plan Competing articles split ranking signals. Canonical tags or merges needed.
10 No XML sitemap submitted to Google Search Console Common on newer sites Very High if site is new Easy — GSC 5-minute setup Without a sitemap, Google discovers pages slowly and inefficiently through crawling alone.
Frequency based on Daily Reality NG audit findings and industry 2026 data. Fix difficulty ratings assume basic CMS access and intermediate technical ability. "Easy" fixes take under 2 hours each. "Medium" fixes typically require 2–8 hours or developer assistance.

💡 DID YOU KNOW? — Third Fact

According to a Medium analysis published March 2026, one Nigerian blogger's traffic dropped 40% after a quiet Core Web Vitals dip caused by a single slow hero image. The LCP was 6.8 seconds — well above the 2.5-second "Good" threshold. One image optimisation fix brought the LCP to 1.9 seconds. Traffic recovered fully within 6 weeks. The lesson: Core Web Vitals failures are not gradual declines. They can cause sudden, significant traffic drops that look mysterious until you understand the cause. Google doubled down on Core Web Vitals after the December 2025 core update — tighter thresholds, more weight on real-user experience. Sites passing all three CWV metrics in 2026 see better positions, lower bounce rates, and higher ad revenue from AdSense — because faster sites earn more per thousand impressions.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Website Audit Services

What exactly do I receive at the end of my audit?

You receive a PDF audit report structured as a prioritised action plan. Every finding includes: what the problem is, why it matters for your site specifically, how to fix it with step-by-step instructions for your platform (Blogger or WordPress), and what improvement to expect. The report is not a screenshot dump or automated tool output — it is manually written and contextualised for your site. Standard package clients also receive 3 WhatsApp follow-up questions within 14 days. Enterprise clients additionally receive a recorded video walkthrough and a 30-minute live call.

Do I need to give you access to my website backend?

For the Essential package, we need your website URL and Google Search Console viewer access (read-only is fine — we do not need edit access). For Standard and Enterprise packages, we also need read-only Google Analytics 4 access. For Blogger-specific fixes, we may need to view your template — this can be done by you sharing a screenshot or code snippet of specific sections. We never need your Blogger or WordPress admin password. All access is read-only and reviewed only for audit purposes.

How long does the audit take and when will I receive my report?

Essential package: delivered within 48 hours of receiving your URL and GSC access. Standard package: delivered within 5 business days. Enterprise package: delivered within 10 business days. These timelines are based on one website per audit. If you submit additional sites, turnaround is extended accordingly. We do not start the audit until payment is confirmed — this protects both parties.

Can you fix the problems found or just identify them?

The audit itself is a findings and recommendations service — we identify and explain every problem with specific fixing instructions. Implementation is separate. For clients who want us to implement the fixes, we offer a separate Implementation Service starting from ₦25,000 per session for Essential-level fixes. Contact us to discuss implementation scope and pricing. Some fixes — particularly schema corrections and content adjustments — most clients can implement themselves using our step-by-step instructions.

My website is on Blogger. Can you still audit it properly?

Yes — and this is specifically where Daily Reality NG has expertise that most audit services do not. Daily Reality NG (dailyrealityngnews.com) is itself built on Blogger with over 680 published articles. Every Blogger-specific technical issue — schema placement limitations, label page crawl waste, template-level performance problems, AdSense integration requirements, and Blogger's specific noindex behaviour — is understood and addressed from direct experience on the same platform.

What is the difference between the Essential and Standard packages?

The Essential package covers the most common and highest-impact problems: schema errors, Core Web Vitals, basic technical SEO, and AdSense readiness — for up to 20 pages. It is the right choice if your site is under 100 pages and you want your first professional audit. The Standard package covers all six audit dimensions with a full site crawl (up to 500 URLs), content quality scoring for 50 pages, backlink profile analysis, AI visibility assessment, competitor comparison, and a 30–50 point prioritised action plan. It is the right choice for established sites that want a comprehensive baseline and strategic direction.

Will my website rankings improve after implementing the audit recommendations?

We cannot guarantee specific ranking positions — no ethical SEO service can. What we can guarantee is that every recommendation in the report is based on verified technical and content factors that affect how Google crawls, indexes, trusts, and ranks your pages. Based on industry data and client feedback, sites that implement all critical audit recommendations consistently see meaningful traffic improvements within 4–12 weeks, depending on how many problems existed and how fast Google recrawls the site. Sites with severe technical issues (noindex errors, broken schema, failed Core Web Vitals) often see the most dramatic improvements because the fixes resolve barriers that were blocking rankings entirely.

I applied for Google AdSense and was rejected. Can your audit help?

Yes — AdSense rejection is almost always about specific site quality signals that the rejection message vaguely references as "insufficient content" or "policy violation." Our AdSense readiness audit identifies the exact criteria your site is failing against AdSense's programme policies, which overlap significantly with general content quality, technical health, and E-E-A-T signals. We check: content originality and depth (minimum article length and quality signals), site navigation structure, privacy policy and legal pages presence, contact page, author identification, and technical issues that create poor user experience signals. Most AdSense rejections are fixable within 4–8 weeks of targeted effort.

How is payment made for the audit?

Payment is made before the audit begins via bank transfer, OPay, PalmPay, or another agreed mobile payment method. We send you the payment details after you confirm the package and URL. Once payment is confirmed, we begin the audit immediately. We do not take deposits — full payment is required upfront for all packages. This protects both parties: we begin work with confirmed payment, and you receive a deliverable that represents full payment received.

Is a website audit a one-time or ongoing service?

For most Nigerian bloggers and SMEs, a comprehensive audit once per year is appropriate — combined with self-monitoring through Google Search Console throughout the year. After a major site redesign, platform migration, or significant Google algorithm update that affects your traffic, an additional audit is warranted. The Standard package is designed as an annual baseline that gives you a complete picture of your site's health and a strategic direction for the next 12 months. For sites that publish more than 20 new articles per month, quarterly technical health checks (a lighter version of the Essential package) make sense.

Can you audit a site not in the Nigerian market?

Yes. The Nigerian-specific expertise is particularly valuable for Nigerian publishers, but the technical audit methodology (Core Web Vitals, schema validation, crawlability, content quality, AI visibility) applies to any website regardless of geography. International pricing applies the same way — our naira pricing is set for Nigerian market purchasing power. Contact us to discuss audit requirements for non-Nigerian sites.

What if I disagree with a finding in the audit report?

All audit findings are backed by tool data and documented methodology. If you believe a finding is incorrect or doesn't apply to your situation, raise it through your WhatsApp follow-up question allowance. We will review the finding with you and either confirm the reasoning with additional evidence or update the report if the finding was in error. We stand behind the accuracy of our audit findings — and we are transparent about methodology so you can verify everything independently using the same tools we use (Google Search Console, PageSpeed Insights, Rich Results Test — all free and publicly accessible).

How do I know if I need an audit or if I just need more content?

If your site has been publishing for 6+ months and traffic is not growing proportionally to content, the problem is usually technical or structural — not content volume. More content on a broken technical foundation produces diminishing returns. Specifically, if your content is genuinely good (thoroughly researched, well-written, specific to your audience) but traffic is flat or declining, an audit is almost certainly more valuable than publishing more content. If you are genuinely unsure, send us your URL via WhatsApp and we will give you an honest preliminary assessment before you commit to a full audit package.

What is AI visibility and why does it matter for my website in 2026?

AI visibility refers to how well your content is structured for AI systems — Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other AI answer engines — to read, understand, and cite your pages. In 2026, Google AI Overviews appear at the top of search results for many queries and pull content from pages that have clear structured data, proper schema markup (especially FAQ schema), well-organised headings, and attributable authorship (Person schema). Pages without these elements are technically correct for traditional search but invisible to AI systems. For Nigerian publishers, this matters because AI-driven traffic is growing rapidly and will become a primary traffic source for many categories. Auditing and optimising for AI visibility now positions your site ahead of competitors who have not yet recognised this shift.

How do I request an audit?

Three ways: (1) WhatsApp — send a message to +234 902 408 9907 with your website URL and which package you want. (2) Email — send dailyrealityngnews@gmail.com with subject "Website Audit Request" and your URL plus your specific concerns. (3) Via this page — click any of the "Request This Audit" buttons above to open a pre-filled WhatsApp message. We respond to all audit requests within 24 hours during business days (Monday to Saturday, 8am–8pm WAT).


⏰ Your 24-Hour Action — Free Preliminary Check

Before you request a full audit, do this free check yourself right now. Open Google Rich Results Test in a new tab. Enter your homepage URL. Click "Test URL." If it shows any errors in your schema — especially in Article, FAQ, or Breadcrumb — you have confirmed schema problems. Then open PageSpeed Insights, enter your URL, select Mobile, and run the test. If your LCP is over 2.5 seconds or CLS is over 0.1 — you have confirmed Core Web Vitals failures. These two free checks take 5 minutes and confirm whether you need an audit. If either returns errors, the audit will almost certainly identify the root causes and give you the fixes. Contact us when you've done the checks — we can discuss what you found before you commit to a package.
