Site Infrastructure & Speed

Technical SEO

Infrastructure aligned with Google's crawling, indexing and ranking logic. Ensure search engines read your site correctly through speed, mobile compatibility, structured data and hreflang management.

Our technical SEO framework

Site speed & Core Web Vitals

Green scores on LCP, FID/INP and CLS. We reduce page load times to under one second through image optimisation, code minification, CDN configuration and server-side caching.

  • LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) improvement
  • INP (Interaction to Next Paint) optimisation
  • CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift) elimination

Crawl budget & index management

Configuring robots.txt, XML sitemaps, internal link architecture and canonical tags so Googlebot discovers your most valuable pages first. Protecting crawl budget by de-indexing unnecessary pages.

  • Robots.txt and XML sitemap optimisation
  • Canonical tag strategy and index control
  • Internal link architecture and PageRank flow

Structured data & schema markup

JSON-LD schema.org markup enabling rich results in Google. FAQ, HowTo, LocalBusiness, product and article schemas are our priority areas.

  • FAQ and HowTo schema markup
  • LocalBusiness and Service schema integration
  • BreadcrumbList and Article structured data

Hreflang & multilingual configuration

Language-based URL structure, hreflang tags and language-separate sitemaps for correct indexing in each market. We fix ranking losses caused by incorrect hreflang setup.

  • Hreflang tag validation and error correction
  • Language-based URL structure and sitemap separation
  • Multilingual canonical management

Mobile-first & Core Web Vitals

Mobile compatibility, responsive design and mobile page speed optimisation aligned with Google's mobile-first indexing priority. We push mobile UX metrics above Google's requirements.

What determines technical SEO cost?

Technical SEO scope is shaped by your site's current state and your goals:

01

Current technical state

A slow, messy site with indexing issues needs heavier technical investment in the first months. Clean infrastructure enables faster progress.

02

Site size and page count

Enterprise sites with hundreds of pages require more extensive auditing and improvement work than smaller sites.

03

Multilingual complexity

Separate URL structures per language, hreflang validation and language-specific sitemap management determine overall technical scope.

Proposal Process

We run a free technical SEO audit before any proposal: current Core Web Vitals scores, crawl stats and technical issue inventory are reported.

What to know about technical SEO

Three rules that separate technical SEO from content and authority work:

Core Web Vitals

Speed is a ranking factor, but not the only one

Page speed is an official Google ranking factor. However, a fast site alone does not guarantee top rankings. Technical SEO produces meaningful results only when combined with content strategy and a solid backlink profile.

Crawl Budget

Crawl budget is critical for large sites

On sites with 10,000+ pages, Googlebot can take weeks to crawl every page. Proper internal link architecture and robots.txt management ensure your most valuable pages are crawled first.

Schema

Structured data does not guarantee rich results

Schema.org markup helps Google understand your content, but it does not guarantee rich snippet appearance. Correct and complete markup improves your chances.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is technical SEO and why is it important?
Technical SEO encompasses all infrastructure work that optimises how search engines crawl, index and rank your website. It includes site speed, mobile compatibility, structured data, canonical tag management and hreflang configuration. Without technical SEO, even the highest quality content cannot be properly understood by search engines and will not achieve its deserved ranking position.
What are Core Web Vitals and how are they improved?
Core Web Vitals are three metrics Google uses to measure user experience: LCP (loading speed), INP (interactivity response time) and CLS (visual stability). Improvements include image optimisation, reducing server response time, deferring unnecessary JavaScript, font loading strategy and layout shift prevention through CSS rules.
What is a hreflang tag and how is it set up correctly?
A hreflang tag tells Google which language and region a page is intended for. Correct setup requires each language version to reference itself and all other language versions with hreflang tags. Incorrect setup can cause pages to fail ranking in any language.
How long does technical SEO take?
The effects of technical SEO improvements typically appear in Google Search Console data within 4-8 weeks. Critical fixes resolve faster, while comprehensive schema markup and site speed optimisation can take 2-3 months. Technical SEO requires ongoing monitoring — it is not a one-time task.
What is the difference between technical SEO and content SEO?
Technical SEO is the infrastructure work that helps search engines find, crawl and understand your site. Content SEO is the creation of valuable content around target keywords. Technical SEO is the foundation and wiring of a building; content SEO is the furniture and decoration. Both must work together for sustainable ranking success.
