Also known as: SEO audit, Site crawl, Technical SEO audit
The Rankmio Site Audit is the technical SEO audit module: a domain is crawled and every URL found is checked against more than 40 test points — from heading hierarchy through title/meta lengths, Schema.org markup completeness, internal linking and broken links to Core Web Vitals diagnostics. The findings are collected in a structured, prioritised report with clear action recommendations for each finding. Findings with high leverage can be created directly as action tasks.
The most important audit categories
Crawl health — status code distribution, redirect chains, broken links, soft 404s.
HTML structure — heading jumps, missing H1, multiple H1s.
Meta tags — title/meta lengths, duplicates, generic values.
Schema.org markup — missing markup per page type, invalid properties.
Core Web Vitals — LCP/INP/CLS values per URL from CrUX.
Mobile friendliness — layout issues, touch targets.
Security and HTTPS — mixed content, HSTS, cookie settings.
Crawl configuration
Spider behaviour — how deep the module crawls (maximum click depth) and how many pages.
Respect for robots.txt — blocked paths are not crawled.
User agent — selectable (Googlebot Smartphone by default for mobile-first conformity).
JS rendering — Puppeteer-based headless browser for SPA websites.
Include / exclude — path patterns for a targeted audit.
Rate limit — protects small servers.
Integration with other modules
Findings from the Site Audit feed directly into: the action list (prioritised tasks), the Citability Score (Schema.org gaps lower citability), the Chat Agent (questions such as ”How many heading problems do I have?” are answered from the audit data) and the Keyword Hub (linking audit findings with keyword performance per URL). The result is an interlocking workflow — the audit is not an isolated report but a data source for the entire platform.
Example from practice
Example: a magazine with 2,400 indexed articles ran its first Site Audit: 87 broken links, 142 heading jumps, 380 title/meta problems and 320 pages without Article schema. Prioritisation: the top 50 pages (by clicks) first, a Schema.org roll-out for the whole domain as the second phase, and the broken link fix as the third. After 6 weeks: the top 50 were clean, the average Citability Score had risen from 48 to 72, and the organic traffic to these pages rose by 28% in parallel.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Rankmio Site Audit?
The Site Audit is the technical SEO analysis of a website: titles, meta tags, heading structure, image alt attributes, schema markup, PageSpeed, robots.txt, sitemap consistency, HTTPS and mobile friendliness. It uncovers on-page SEO problems systematically.
How often does the Site Audit run?
Weekly and automatically, plus it can be triggered manually. Weekly repetition detects new problems early (deployments, content changes). Manual triggering after larger site updates gives an immediate assessment.
What does the Site Audit typically find?
15–50 optimisation points in new projects. The most frequent findings: duplicate or missing meta descriptions, missing image alt texts, heading jumps, slow LCP values and broken internal links. All of them come with concrete fix suggestions.
How does the Site Audit differ from the GEO Audit?
The Site Audit is for classic SEO, the GEO Audit for AI citability. Both analyse the same site, but with different test criteria. The Site Audit checks Google signals, the GEO Audit checks citability signals for LLMs.
