Preparing for the Audit Form

When it comes to SEO, no detail is too small! Please fill out this form in its entirety. Because some sections will need a detailed response, we recommend writing everything down separately, so you can copy and paste your finalized answers here.

Selecting Your Keywords

Our team excels at researching and finalizing keywords. When filling out the form, please add as many keywords as you like! Depending on your niche, it may be best to add a phrase as a keyword, versus one or two words (for example, saying “auto shop in Oklahoma” instead of “automotive shop”).

Identifying Your Competitors

The search engine landscape is competitive, so we need to keep an eye on what others are doing. Please include 3 of your main competitors, so we can provide a complete report. If you are part of an organization that does not technically have competitors, please share 3 groups that are similar to yours.

Including Your Social Media

We want to help your brand boost your reach across platforms. If your business has social media accounts, please add them as well. We will provide social media audit details as part of your comprehensive local SEO audit!

FAQs about local SEO and audits:

What is a local SEO audit? Why do I need one?

A local SEO audit provides a clear snapshot of how well your website is performing in search results within your specific area. This SEO health check will identify technical issues, gaps in content, inconsistent listings, and opportunities for improvement—allowing your business to show up more often and more prominently when people nearby search for your services.

What does an SEO audit include?

An SEO audit typically reviews your website structure, page speed, keyword usage, content quality, local listings, backlink profile, and more. It gives a full picture of what’s working and what needs attention to improve your search result performance.

What will I get in my SEO report after the local search audit?

For your local listing/citation audit, we carefully review your digital presence to provide a clear, actionable snapshot of your brand’s online health. Your report will include:

  • On-Page Analysis: A review of your website’s structure, metadata, and keyword usage.
  • Technical Health Check: Identification of page speed issues and mobile responsiveness.
  • Local Listing Review: An assessment of your business’s NAP consistency across local maps and directories.
  • Competitor Benchmarking: A side-by-side comparison with industry peers to identify growth opportunities.
  • Social Media Audit: Insights into how your social profiles are supporting your search visibility.

Do I need to be a current client to request a local ranking audit?

You do not! Whether you are a long-time client or this is our first introduction, our local SEO audits are here for any businesses or organizations looking to improve their online presence.

What are keywords and key phrases?

Keywords” and “key phrases” are the terms that we type into search engines when searching for products, services, or information. Incorporating these words into your SEO campaign will help search engines understand what your business does. As a result, using relevant keywords will increase the chance of your website being found by your target audience.

Why is it important to have local SEO keywords?

Local SEO keywords help your business appear in search results for people in your area. These phrases often include your city, region, or service area alongside your services. For example, using the phrase “landscaping in Oklahoma City” is more likely to attract nearby users who are ready to connect with a local provider.

Why do you need to know my competitors?

Understanding your competitors helps identify what is working well for others in your industry and where there are opportunities to outperform them. We review how your competitors are ranking, what keywords they’re using, and what kind of content they’re creating—so we can help you build a more effective SEO strategy.

What if I don’t have any competitors?

If your organization is working toward the same goal as others, you may not have any direct competitors. That is perfectly alright! In this situation, please list similar organizations in your field. This helps provide a point of comparison for the local SEO audit, allowing for more meaningful insights.

What happens after I receive the local SEO audit?

After your local SEO audit report is delivered, our Oklahoma SEO team will follow up with you to review the results and discuss your potential next steps.
