SEO & GEO Audit: Clear analysis, no matter where you stand

The search landscape is changing — and with it, the very nature of online visibility. Focusing solely on traditional Google rankings means missing out on the massive, growing impact of AI-driven search across ChatGPT, AI Overviews, and similar platforms. Yet, traditional SEO remains the essential foundation for GEO (Generative Engine Optimization).

Our SEO & GEO Audits evaluate both: your website’s traditional organic performance and its readiness for AI-driven search. We tailor the depth and breadth of our analysis to align perfectly with your needs.

Three audit depths. Seamlessly tailored.

Depending on your current standing and goals, we can focus on traditional SEO performance, AI visibility, or a combination of both. Rather than forcing you into rigid packages, we customize a scope that works for you. Our audits always analyze three key areas: technical health, content, and off-page signals, with the specific test scope customized to your starting point.

You can also expand the core audit scope with targeted deep dives:

• International SEO Check: We review your hreflang implementation, IP-based redirects, and regional variations to prevent duplicate content and keyword cannibalization.
• Page Speed Check: A deep dive into loading times, Core Web Vitals, server response times, and performance bottlenecks across images, JavaScript, CSS, and third-party scripts.
• Off-Page Check: We assess your backlink profile’s domain authority, flag toxic links, and check thematic relevance (available for both traditional SEO and combined SEO & GEO Audits).
• Accessibility Check: We audit WCAG compliance, covering color contrast, heading hierarchy, alt text, keyboard navigation, form accessibility, and screen-reader compatibility.

*We will define the exact scope and pricing during a free initial consultation, tailored to your domain’s size and complexity.

A structured 4-step process to high-impact results

Our proven methodology ensures a smooth journey from our initial alignment to a fully prioritized, actionable roadmap.

Your deliverables

• Comprehensive Audit Report (PDF): A detailed, executive-ready report detailing all evaluated areas and prioritized action items.
• Actionable URL & Data Sheets (Excel, optional): Granular datasets (such as metadata sheets or redirect maps) ready for your development or content teams to execute.
• Interactive Review Session (60-minute video call): A personal, hands-on walkthrough of our findings, where we discuss next steps and answer your team’s questions.

To help you get moving quickly, we can also draft and review Jira tickets for your engineering team, ensuring a seamless handover.

The right tools — used strategically, not blindly

While industry-leading crawlers like Screaming Frog, Lumar, and Audisto form our technical foundation, auditing for AI-driven search (GEO) requires a specialized toolkit. We leverage advanced solutions for LLM monitoring, Common Crawl extraction, and AI Overview tracking — including our proprietary in-house tool ONE Content Lab, SEOrenity, and platforms like Rankscale or Peec AI.

Our core philosophy: Data from premium tools + the seasoned expertise of senior consultants = an audit that actually delivers results. You won't get an automated PDF full of red flags that don't matter. You get a curated, business-focused assessment tailored to your actual setup.

Bridging the gap between auditing and execution

An audit is only as valuable as the changes it inspires. If you want to turn insights into action without delay, we are here to help.

We seamlessly transition from analysis to execution, partnering with you on strategic concept development, advanced GEO strategies, and hands-on implementation through our SEO Consulting and GEO Consulting services.

What we stand for. And what you can rely on.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an SEO Audit and a GEO Audit?

An SEO Audit analyzes traditional organic search performance indicators, including technical health, crawlability and indexing, content quality, internal link architecture, and page speed. A GEO Audit (Generative Engine Optimization) goes a step further by evaluating how prominent and accurate your brand is within AI-driven search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. It pinpoints exactly what content or structured data is missing to ensure your site is successfully cited. These audits can be conducted separately or combined into a comprehensive check.

Do I really need both an SEO and a GEO Audit?

It depends entirely on your current organic performance and maturity. If your traditional SEO foundation is already strong and your primary goal is to assess visibility in LLMs and AI-driven search engines, a standalone GEO Audit is an excellent entry point. However, if your site has foundational technical or content-thinness issues, these must be resolved first because LLMs rely heavily on traditional crawlability and clean HTML. We will help you determine the most cost-effective scope during your free consultation.

How much does an SEO & GEO Audit cost?

Pricing depends on the scale and complexity of your domain, as well as the selected depth of the audit. For a pure SEO Audit of a small-to-medium website, pricing starts at €3,000. Combined SEO & GEO Audits scale upwards based on complexity. Be cautious of low-cost, automated tool audits — they generate hundreds of pages of uncontextualized errors but lack any expert prioritization. We provide custom, transparent quotes during our free initial alignment call.

Should I schedule an audit before or after a site relaunch?

Both timings offer unique benefits depending on your goal.

Scheduling an audit BEFORE a relaunch is highly recommended to identify legacy issues and prevent them from being migrated into your new system, ensuring a clean start. An audit AFTER a relaunch serves as a critical quality assurance check to ensure that redirects were implemented flawlessly and no new search engine bottlenecks were introduced. For the most secure transition, we recommend our specialized Relaunch Consulting to guide you through the process.

Is a Content Audit included in the SEO & GEO Audit?

A complete Content Audit is a separate, comprehensive service. However, the SEO Audit does cover essential quantitative content metrics (such as header hierarchies, duplicate content, and basic metadata health). In contrast, the GEO Audit examines crucial qualitative content elements — such as topic completeness, structured data schemas, and "information gain" — which are critical for earning citations in AI-driven search.
