Technical SEO by engineers who read the code
Technical SEO is the work of making a site crawlable, fast, and unambiguous: one URL per page, a sitemap generated from the live routes, canonicals and redirects that agree, structured data that validates, and Core Web Vitals that pass on a phone.
Trusted by growth-minded businesses across the Upstate and beyond.
What is included in technical SEO?
Greenville Digital Solutions does this work as engineers who read the code, not from a checklist. Our own site audit found a sitemap listing dead routes, a canonical host that disagreed with production, and no llms.txt. We fixed all three in the first pull request. That is the audit every client site gets first.
Full crawl and indexation audit
Every URL crawled and compared with Search Console: what is indexed, what is excluded and why, duplicates, orphans, and redirect chains.
Core Web Vitals
Largest contentful paint under 2.5 seconds on mobile, interaction under 200 milliseconds, layout shift under 0.1. Images, fonts, scripts, and rendering fixed, with before and after scores.
Sitemap, robots, and canonicals
A sitemap generated from live routes so it cannot list a dead page, robots rules that do not block what should rank, and one canonical per page on the right host.
Redirects and migrations
Every old URL mapped to a new one and tested before launch. We have migrated 51-route Squarespace sites without losing a position.
Structured data
Schema validated on every page after publish and kept accurate to the content, because mismatched schema is ignored or penalized.
Weekly site audit
A crawler runs every week and queues fixes automatically, so a broken link or a slow page is caught in days, not at the next annual review.

Every number here is tied to a named client and a date.

Search Console and PageSpeed checked after each fix.
Automate
Weekly crawl and sitemap generation stay on so it does not regress.

Who needs technical SEO
The technical audit is part of the free market audit. Fixes on your existing platform are included in Essentials at $600 a month and Growth at $1,000 a month. Migrations are quoted per project by page count, usually two to four weeks.
Sites with pages Google will not index
Usually a canonical, robots, or duplicate URL problem. The audit finds it in a day.
Slow builder and WordPress sites
Plugin-heavy WordPress and template builders that score 40 to 70 on mobile. Cleanup or rebuild, with the numbers to decide.
Businesses about to migrate
Any platform move without a redirect map loses rankings. We build and test the map first.
Sites that were migrated badly
Rankings that disappeared after a redesign are usually a redirect and canonical problem we can reverse.
Google Business Profile optimization
The map pack drives most local calls.
Local keyword research
Every page we build targets one keyword with a measured volume.
On-page SEO
Titles, headings, internal links, and schema are the parts of SEO you control completely.
Make search your most reliable revenue channel.
Pages Google cannot crawl or trust never rank. Fixing the foundation makes every page we write count.

Technical SEO: common questions
What is a technical SEO audit?
A crawl of every URL on your site checking speed, indexation, structured data, redirects, and mobile rendering, with each issue ranked by impact.
Can you fix a WordPress site?
Yes. Our connector plugin handles WordPress, and we also work on Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow, and custom Next.js sites.
Do you migrate sites?
Yes, with redirect maps so rankings carry over. We watch Search Console for 60 days after launch.
How fast can you fix Core Web Vitals?
On WordPress, usually within two weeks to above 90 on mobile. On builders like Wix the ceiling is the platform, and we say so.
Why is my sitemap important?
It is the list of pages you are asking Google to index. If it lists dead pages or misses live ones, indexation stalls. Ours is generated from the live routes so it cannot drift.
Will technical fixes break my site?
Every change ships through a review and a preview deploy before it touches production, with one-click rollback if anything is wrong.
