Technical SEO Audit

KithFlow’s Technical SEO Audit provides a medical checkup for your website. It goes beyond basic HTML parsing to analyze performance and rendering issues that affect modern websites.

Core Web Vitals (Real User Data)

We connect directly to the Google PageSpeed Insights API. This means your scores for metrics such as Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) come from Chrome’s real user experience report (CrUX), not just a lab simulation.

Important: We fetch data for mobile devices by default, as Google uses mobile-first indexing. If your desktop score is 100 but mobile is 40, your search rankings will suffer.

The Crawler (Firecrawl)

Most SEO tools struggle with modern sites built using React, Vue, or Next.js because they only analyze the initial HTML.

KithFlow uses Firecrawl to render the full JavaScript of your pages. This allows us to:

See content that is loaded dynamically
Check metadata injected by client-side scripts
Detect broken links that only appear after interaction

Scoring Breakdown

Your overall Health Score is a weighted average of multiple audit categories.

Performance

Focuses on load speed and core web vitals such as LCP, FID, and CLS. Weight: High

Meta Tags

Checks the presence and length of title and description tags. Weight: Medium

Technical

Validates HTTPS status, robots.txt, and sitemap availability. Weight: Medium

Content

Analyzes word count and text-to-HTML ratio. Weight: Medium

Links

Measures internal versus external link ratios and broken link count. Weight: Low

Fixing Issues

The audit report provides a prioritized list of Critical Errors, Warnings, and Notices.

We recommend addressing Critical Errors first, as these often prevent Google from indexing your site entirely. Examples include noindex tags or broken canonical links.
