The basics

Technical SEO services: what you get and when you need them

Technical SEO services give you a diagnosis and a repair plan for the parts of a site that people never see: server responses, URLs, rendering and markup. You need them when good content refuses to index, when traffic drops after a release, or when a rebuild is coming. Digital Magma covers all three situations.

Most businesses come to us after something broke. A developer shipped a staging robots.txt to production. A new theme doubled the URL count overnight. A React rebuild left Google looking at an empty shell.

Others come before a risky change, which is cheaper. A pre-launch check of redirects and rendering costs a fraction of a recovery project.

You get three things from us. A ranked list of issues, each tied to the pages and revenue it touches. Tickets your developers can pick up without a translator. And a re-check after release, so a fix is only marked done once Google has seen it.

What’s included

Technical SEO audit scope: crawl, index, render, speed, schema

A technical SEO audit from Digital Magma follows a page through the same five stages Google does: discovery and crawling, indexing, rendering, page experience and structured data. Each stage gets its own checks and its own findings. That order matters, because a page Google cannot crawl will never benefit from a schema fix.

Crawling

Technical SEO for crawl budget, robots.txt and XML sitemaps

Good SEO starts with crawling, and for most sites that means a clean robots.txt and accurate XML sitemaps rather than crawl budget. Google Search Central aims its crawl budget guide at sites with 1 million+ pages, or 10,000+ pages that change daily. Digital Magma tells you which group you are in before spending time there.

Google’s robots.txt introduction is blunt. The file manages crawler load and “is not a mechanism for keeping a web page out of Google”. A blocked URL can still be indexed from links pointing at it.

The opposite mistake is just as common. Google’s noindex documentation says a page blocked in robots.txt never shows Googlebot its noindex tag. So a page that is both blocked and noindexed can stay in results.

Sitemaps have hard limits too: 50MB or 50,000 URLs per file, according to Google’s sitemap guide. Larger sites need an index file. We also strip redirected, noindexed and non-canonical URLs, because a sitemap full of them teaches Google to trust it less.

Crawl budget becomes real on big catalogues and publishers. Google describes it as crawl capacity plus crawl demand. On those sites we read server logs to see where Googlebot actually spends its requests.

Indexing

Technical SEO indexing fixes: canonicals, noindex and duplicates

Indexing work in SEO decides which URL represents each piece of content and removes the rest from contention. Google calls redirects and rel=”canonical” strong signals, so Digital Magma aligns redirects, canonical tags, internal links and sitemaps on one preferred URL, then checks the Page indexing report to confirm Google agrees.

The report label people ask us about most is “Crawled, currently not indexed”. Google’s Search Console help says the page was crawled and may or may not be indexed later, with no need to resubmit.

In our audits that label usually points to one of three causes: near-duplicate pages, thin template pages, or internal links that send almost no weight to the page. Resubmitting fixes none of them. We wrote a separate guide on crawled, currently not indexed for teams who want to dig in themselves.

Canonical conflicts are the next most common finding. A tag says one URL, the sitemap lists another, and the menu links to a third. Google’s duplicate URL guide lists these signals in order of strength. We make all of them agree.

Indexed and not-indexed URLs, with the reasons Google gives for each group.

Rendering and bots

Technical SEO for JavaScript rendering and AI crawler access

SEO for JavaScript sites checks what a crawler receives before and after scripts run. Google processes JavaScript in three phases, crawling, rendering and indexing, and its own guide notes that not all bots can run JavaScript. Digital Magma compares raw and rendered HTML, then reviews which AI crawlers your robots.txt lets in.

Google’s JavaScript SEO basics recommend server-side rendering or pre-rendering because it is faster for users and crawlers. That advice matters more now. Most AI crawlers fetch raw HTML and do not wait for scripts.

We test both views of each template. If prices, reviews or body copy only appear after hydration, the page is weaker everywhere. Deep rendering problems go to our JavaScript SEO team.

OpenAI’s crawler documentation separates its bots. OAI-SearchBot surfaces sites in ChatGPT search, and opted-out sites are not shown in ChatGPT search answers. GPTBot collects content that may be used for model training. Each setting is independent.

Structure

Technical SEO for site architecture, internal links and faceted URLs

Architecture work in SEO makes sure important pages sit a few clicks from the homepage and receive plain HTML links with descriptive anchor text. Google’s link guidance says it can generally only crawl links built as an a element with an href. Digital Magma maps click depth, orphan pages and parameter traps from a full crawl.

Faceted navigation is the classic trap. Google’s guide on faceted URLs warns that parameter-based filters can create infinite URL spaces, which leads to overcrawling and slower discovery of new pages.

The fix depends on demand. Filter combinations that people search for become real, linked pages. The rest are kept out of the crawl.

Orphan pages get the opposite treatment. They exist in the sitemap but no page links to them, so Google sees them as unimportant. We either link them from a relevant hub or retire them.

Page experience

Technical SEO and Core Web Vitals: where speed fits

Technical SEO audits include Core Web Vitals, but as one input among many. web.dev sets the good thresholds at LCP within 2.5 seconds, INP of 200 milliseconds or less and CLS of 0.1 or less, measured at the 75th percentile. Digital Magma flags failing templates here and handles deep speed work as a separate service.

Google’s page experience documentation says Core Web Vitals are used by its ranking systems, and also that relevance comes first. A slow page with the best answer can still win. That is why speed sits mid-list in our audits, not at the top. Full speed projects run under our Core Web Vitals optimisation service.

Structured data

Technical SEO checks for structured data and rich results

Our SEO checks on structured data confirm three things: the JSON-LD is valid, it describes what the page visibly shows, and no plugin or app has added a second, conflicting block. Digital Magma tests templates in the Rich Results Test and Schema Markup Validator, then fixes the source rather than individual pages.

Duplicate entities are the usual problem. A theme outputs Organization markup, the SEO plugin outputs another, and the two disagree on the logo or phone number.

We pick one source, link entities by @id and remove the rest. Our schema markup guide covers the types in more depth.

Process

Technical SEO audit-to-fix process in six steps

Digital Magma runs every technical SEO engagement through six steps, from first access to a confirmed re-crawl. Each step produces something your team can inspect. We do not mark an issue closed when the code merges. It closes when Search Console or a fresh crawl shows Google has picked up the change.

1

Access

Search Console, analytics and, ideally, server logs. Output: a list of goals and known incidents.

2

Crawl

A full crawl in rendered and raw mode, joined with Search Console data. Output: the raw issue set.

3

Prioritise

Issues scored by pages affected and revenue at stake. Output: the ranked fix list.

4

Tickets

Each fix written as a ticket with evidence, the change and a test. Output: a backlog for your sprint tool.

5

Verify

Staging checked before release, live pages checked after. Output: pass or reopen.

6

Monitor

Indexing, crawl stats and templates watched each month. Output: a short report and next priorities.

Tools

Technical SEO tools: crawlers, logs and Google data

SEO tools only describe symptoms, so Digital Magma always joins two views: what a crawler finds and what Google reports. Screaming Frog and Ahrefs Site Audit show the site as a bot sees it. Search Console’s URL Inspection and Page indexing reports show what Google actually did with each URL.

Server logs are the third view, and the most honest one. They show every Googlebot request, including the ones wasted on redirects and parameters. Not every host provides them, so we ask early.

We do not hand over raw tool exports. Each finding in our audit is checked by a person and attached to the URLs it affects.

Use cases

Technical SEO agency work by site type

SEO problems repeat by platform and business model, so Digital Magma starts each audit with the failure patterns typical for your kind of site. A software company on React fails differently from a WordPress publisher or a Shopify store, and the first week of checks reflects that.

SaaS and software

Client-side rendering, docs subdomains and duplicate pricing pages.

Ecommerce

Filters, variants and out-of-stock rules. See ecommerce SEO.

Publishers

Tag archives, pagination and very large sitemaps.

Service businesses

Near-duplicate location pages and plugin conflicts on WordPress.

How your service quote is scoped

₹40,000 is our minimum paid engagement, not a fixed price for every service or a promise that every deliverable is included. For this service, the quote depends on website size, technical complexity, locations and languages, content production, authority work and SEO or AI-search reporting.

Recurring work is quoted per month; a standalone audit, build or production project is quoted separately. Your proposal confirms deliverables, quantities, timelines, revisions, applicable taxes and third-party costs before work begins. Larger programmes are custom quoted with no upper price limit.

Options

Technical SEO audit options: tool report, freelancer or agency

A technical SEO audit can come from a tool, a freelancer or an agency like Digital Magma, and the difference is mostly what happens after the findings. Tools list issues without context. A freelancer may prioritise well but rarely covers releases. An agency should rank, ticket and verify.

Honest advice

Technical SEO audit: when it is not what you need

A technical SEO audit is the wrong purchase when pages index fine and simply don’t rank, or when the site has twenty pages and no developer. Digital Magma will say so on the first call. In those cases content, links or a simple rebuild usually do more for the same money.

  • Indexed pages, weak rankings: the gap is usually content depth or authority
  • A tiny brochure site: the free audit will catch the basics
  • A redesign already under way: wait and audit the staging site instead

FAQs

Technical SEO services: questions buyers ask

What is included in technical SEO services?

Digital Magma covers crawl and index checks, robots.txt and sitemaps, canonicals, redirects, JavaScript rendering, Core Web Vitals, structured data and AI crawler access.

You also get ranked developer tickets and a re-check after each release.

How much does a technical SEO audit cost in India?

Our monthly plans start from ₹40,000 plus GST, with Growth, Scale and Enterprise from ₹40,000, ₹80,000 and ₹1,20,000.

A one-off audit without implementation is quoted on the site’s size and stack.

How long does an audit take?

Small sites take one to two weeks. Large or JavaScript-heavy sites take longer, mostly because rendering tests and log analysis need more data.

Do you implement the fixes or only report them?

Both are possible. We edit WordPress and most CMSs directly. For custom stacks we write tickets for your developers and check the result after release.

Can you work directly with our developers or hosting company?

That is how most of our technical work happens. We join sprint calls, answer questions on tickets and talk to hosts about server response, caching and logs.

Why are my pages “crawled, currently not indexed”?

Google crawled them and chose not to index them for now. The usual causes are near-duplicates, thin pages or weak internal links. Resubmitting does not help. Improving or merging the pages does.

Should I allow GPTBot and other AI crawlers in robots.txt?

Treat search bots and training bots separately. OpenAI says OAI-SearchBot powers ChatGPT search, while GPTBot gathers training data.

Most businesses that want AI visibility allow the search bot and decide on GPTBot as a policy choice.

How often should the audit be repeated?

A full audit once a year suits most sites, plus a quick check before and after every major release. Large sites benefit from monthly monitoring.

Will technical SEO alone improve my rankings?

It removes barriers. If Google could not index or render your best pages, fixing that can move rankings quickly. If pages already index well, content and links matter more.

Is the free SEO audit the same as a technical SEO audit?

The free audit is a short triage of obvious problems. The paid technical audit crawls the whole site, joins Search Console and log data, and ends in ranked tickets.
