Which WordPress SEO audit do you need?
WordPress sites vary wildly in complexity. Match your setup to the right audit.
IF → You have a simple blog or brochure site (under 100 pages, no ecommerce)
→ Basic WordPress Audit (Starter plan)
Focus on Yoast/RankMath config, permalink structure, image optimization, and Core Web Vitals. Most issues can be fixed in a day.
IF → You run WooCommerce or a membership plugin alongside WordPress
→ WordPress + Ecommerce/Membership Audit
Plugin interactions create complex SEO issues — duplicate content from WooCommerce, gated content indexation, and JS conflicts. Audit both the CMS layer and the plugin layer.
IF → You run WordPress Multisite or manage 5+ WordPress sites
→ Multi-Site WordPress Audit (Agency plan)
Each site in a multisite network can have independent SEO issues. CrawlRaven crawls each subsite separately and generates per-site reports for your team.
IF → Your site is slow and you suspect plugin bloat
→ WordPress Performance Audit (CWV focus)
Start with CrawlRaven's Core Web Vitals analysis to identify which plugins add render-blocking JS. Then audit your theme, caching, and image optimization pipeline.
