Technical SEO That Fixes What's Holding Your Rankings Back
Slow site? Pages not indexing? Rankings dropping for no obvious reason? Technical SEO problems are usually invisible until they start costing you traffic and sales. We find them, fix them, and get your site working the way Google expects.
Are technical issues costing you rankings?
Find out exactly how your site is performing, what technical issues are holding your rankings back, and how to fix them.
Get found in the first place
If search engines can't crawl and index your pages, nothing else you do will rank. We clear the technical blocks so your site can compete properly in search.
Faster pages win more enquiries
Speed is a ranking signal and a conversion one. A quicker, smoother site keeps visitors engaged and turns more of them into enquiries.
Make the rest of your SEO count
Strong content and links only pay off on solid technical foundations. Sort the groundwork once and every page and campaign works harder.
Why technical SEO matters
Technical SEO is the foundation upon which all other SEO strategies are built. It focuses on enhancing your website’s technical elements to improve its health, removing technical SEO errors, and improving Google and other search engines’ crawling and indexing of your site.
Our comprehensive Technical SEO services ensure that search engines can access, crawl, interpret, and index your website without issues, leading to better visibility and higher rankings.

Our Technical SEO Expertise
No two sites are broken in the same way
There’s no universal fix for technical SEO. Every site has its own mix of problems, some obvious, some hiding in the code. We start with a full diagnostic of how your site is performing right now, then build a prioritised plan based on what will actually move your rankings, not a generic checklist run on autopilot.
Our Technical SEO Checklist
Here are a few core areas that can impact performance in search engines and how we can fix them.
Site Speed Optimisation
Faster load times, better Core Web Vitals and a smoother experience for visitors. Speed is one of Google’s clearest ranking signals, and one of the easiest things to get wrong.
Mobile Optimisation
Most of your traffic is on a phone. We make sure your site loads fast, looks right and works properly on every device, which is exactly what Google rewards.
Image Sizing and Alt tags
Oversized images slow your site down and missing alt tags waste a ranking opportunity. We resize, compress and tag every image so your pages load quickly and tell Google what they’re about.
Structured Data Implementation
Schema markup helps Google understand your content properly and can earn you rich snippets in search results. We add the right structured data to the right pages so you stand out, not blend in.
Keyword Research
The right keywords drive the right traffic. We identify the search terms your customers are actually using and build your site’s content and structure around them.
Backlink Audit
Toxic or low-quality backlinks can drag your rankings down without you knowing. We audit every link pointing at your site and disavow anything harmful, protecting your domain authority.
SEO Content Optimisation
We review your existing content for duplicate pages, weak titles, missing meta descriptions and anything else search engines might trip over, then optimise it to rank for the keywords that matter.
On-site and page SEO
Headings, internal links, meta tags, page titles, broken links. The detail-level fixes that compound over time and lift every page on your site, not just one.
XML Sitemaps and Robots.txt
These two files tell Google what to crawl and what to ignore. Get them wrong and important pages get missed. We optimise both so search engines find and index everything that matters.
Indexing Error Resolution & Crawlability
If Google can’t crawl your site properly, it can’t rank it. We use Search Console to find and fix indexing errors, submit clean sitemaps and make sure every page you want to rank is actually visible to search engines.

What our Technical SEO Clients have to say
Here are a few of our technical SEO case studies
My old web designers left my website in a mess. After booking the free audit, my site’s SEO health was 42 out of 100. We had seen a steady drop in rankings on our core keywords and were losing sales. I’m so glad I found Melt. After just two weeks, they’d fixed the site’s main issues, improved the technical SEO score, and combined with an SEO campaign, we’ve seen our rankings improve, and we’re getting sales again.
After years of hiring different freelancers to improve my SEO results, I found my traffic and ranking were dropping off a cliff. After working with Melt, they identified a key technical issue that was hurting our indexing. After fixing this, cleaning up the site, and optimising the content on our core service pages, we’re in the top 3 for all our key services and receiving 20 High-Quality Leads a month. If SEO is important to your business, then speak to these guys.

Technical SEO Frequently Asked Questions
What is Technical SEO?
Technical SEO is the work that makes your site easier for Google to crawl, understand and rank. It covers site speed, mobile-friendliness, site architecture, structured data, meta tags, alt tags, sitemaps, indexing and content structure.
What are some common technical SEO issues?
The usual culprits are slow page speed, duplicate content, broken links, missing or messy meta tags, mobile usability problems and indexing errors. Most sites have a handful of these without realising.
How can Technical SEO help improve website performance?
Fixing technical issues makes your site easier for search engines to access and understand. The result is better rankings, more organic traffic and a smoother experience for visitors, which Google also rewards.
Do I need to hire a technical SEO agency for technical SEO services?
Basic fixes are within reach if you’re comfortable with WordPress’s back end. But the more advanced stuff (schema, indexing issues, Core Web Vitals, redirect chains) usually requires someone who handles it daily. A specialist will spot issues you’d never know to look for.
How can technical SEO help improve my website's ranking on search engines?
Focusing on technical SEO can fix issues hindering your website’s performance on search engines. Improving site speed and internal linking can help search engines crawl and index your website more effectively, leading to higher rankings in search results.
How long will it take to fix my technical SEO issues?
It depends on the size of the site and how serious the issues are. Some fixes show up in rankings within a few weeks, others take a few months as Google recrawls and re-evaluates your pages. SEO rewards patience and a solid strategy over quick wins.
How much will it cost to fix the SEO issues on my site?
It’s hard to say without knowing what your site needs. Our free technical SEO audit will tell us exactly what’s wrong, and from there we can quote based on the actual work involved. Technical SEO is also included in our SEO campaigns and care plans.
Can I fix technical SEO issues myself?
If you’re technically confident and willing to put the time in, yes. But for anything beyond basic fixes, getting it wrong can cost you rankings, so it’s often worth getting a second opinion before making changes.
