Technical SEO Services for US Businesses, Fix What's Blocking Your Growth

Great content on a broken foundation still loses. I find and fix the technical issues stopping Google, and now AI search engines, from finding, understanding, and ranking your site.

You can have the best content on the internet and still rank nowhere if Google can't crawl it, can't render it, or doesn't trust it.

That's the part of SEO most business owners never see, and the part that quietly decides whether everything else you invest in (content, design, marketing) actually pays off. Slow load times, broken internal linking, JavaScript hiding your content from crawlers, missing schema, duplicate pages competing against each other. These aren't small annoyances. They're the reason your rankings stall while a technically cleaner competitor pulls ahead.

I run deep, AI-assisted technical audits, fix what's broken, and build a foundation that holds up: not just for Google, but for the AI search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini) that are now sending real traffic too.

Why It Matters

Technical SEO Isn't Glamorous. It's Just the Reason Everything Else Works (Or Doesn't.)

Content SEO is about what you say. Technical SEO is about whether search engines, and now AI models, can actually access, read, and trust what you said in the first place.

Without Technical SEO

Broken Foundation

  • Pages take 6+ seconds to load, so Google quietly suppresses them
  • Strong content sits invisible behind crawl & rendering issues
  • Investment in content & design silently capped by foundation
  • Cleaner competitors pull ahead, even with weaker content
  • Rankings stall, traffic plateaus, no obvious reason why
FIXED

With Technical SEO Fixed

Solid Foundation

  • Pages load fast, render cleanly, and pass Core Web Vitals
  • Content finally has a chance to perform, and traffic follows
  • Every investment compounds: content, design, and marketing
  • Google & AI search engines can crawl, render, and trust the site
  • The ceiling on growth, already removed, disappears
Real Client Example

Here's what that looks like in practice. A US healthcare client I worked with had genuinely strong content sitting on pages that took 6+ seconds to load on mobile. Google saw the slow experience and quietly suppressed those pages in rankings, no matter how good the writing was. Once the technical layer was fixed, the content finally had a chance to perform, and traffic followed.

That's the pattern I see constantly: businesses investing in content and design while the technical foundation underneath silently caps their results. Fixing it doesn't create something new. It removes the ceiling that was already there.

What I Fix

The Technical Issues I Find, And Fix, Most Often

I'm not going to pretend every site needs the same fixes. But across the US businesses I've audited, these are the issues that show up over and over, and the ones that move the needle most when resolved.

Critical

Crawlability & Indexation Problems

If Google can't crawl a page, nothing else about that page matters. I audit and fix robots.txt misconfigurations, broken or conflicting canonical tags, redirect chains, soft 404s, and orphaned pages with no internal links pointing to them, all common reasons pages get crawled inconsistently or dropped from the index entirely. This is how I fix crawlability and indexation issues in websites.

Fix: Restore full crawl access & clean indexation
Critical

JavaScript Rendering Gaps

Most major AI crawlers, including the ones powering ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude search products, only read static HTML. They don't execute JavaScript the way Googlebot does. If your key content, links, or metadata only appear after client-side rendering, those AI systems may never see it at all. I identify exactly what's hidden behind JavaScript and fix the rendering approach so your content is visible to every crawler.

Fix: Make content visible to Google + all AI crawlers
High

Core Web Vitals & Page Speed

I optimize LCP (load speed), INP (responsiveness), and CLS (visual stability), not as abstract metrics, but because slow, janky pages lose both rankings and conversions. Most of my work here focuses on mobile, since that's where the experience (and the ranking impact) breaks down first.

Fix: Pass CWV thresholds on real-world mobile devices
High

Site Architecture & Internal Linking

A site where your most important pages are buried five clicks deep is a site fighting itself. I restructure site hierarchy and internal linking so authority flows to the pages that matter, important content stays within a few clicks of the homepage, and Google understands what you actually want to rank for.

Fix: Direct authority flow to revenue-driving pages
High

Structured Data & Schema Accuracy

Schema isn't just "added once and forgotten." I implement and audit Product, Service, FAQ, Review, and LocalBusiness schema, and just as importantly, I check for schema drift, where your markup says one thing and your visible page content says another. That mismatch quietly erodes how much search engines trust your structured data.

Fix: Implement & maintain drift-free, accurate markup
Medium

HTTPS, Security & Technical Trust Signals

Improperly configured SSL, mixed content warnings, and insecure resource loading are still showing up on US business sites in 2026. I make sure the basic SSL guidelines are airtight, because trust signals compound; a site that fails on security rarely gets the benefit of the doubt elsewhere.

Fix: Lock down SSL, security & trust signals
AI Search Angle

Technical SEO Now Has to Work for AI Search Engines Too, Not Just Google

Here's something most technical SEO providers still aren't telling clients clearly enough: the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude's search features generally do not render JavaScript. They fetch static HTML and move on. Googlebot can execute JavaScript through headless Chromium, but these other systems, increasingly responsible for real referral traffic, mostly can't.

That means a site can be perfectly fine for Google and still be functionally invisible to the AI search engines a growing share of your future customers are starting to use.

If your content needs JS to render, it's likely invisible to AI search.

I Build Technical Foundations That Work for Both

01
Auditing rendered vs. raw HTML so critical content exists outside of JavaScript
02
Reviewing robots.txt & CDN to confirm AI crawlers aren't being blocked
03
Structuring content with clear hierarchies so AI can extract & cite it
04
Keeping schema accurate & drift-free as a trust signal for AI systems
05
Using AI-assisted analysis to surface patterns manual audits miss
This isn't a separate add-on service. It's how I now approach technical SEO by default, because the two are no longer separable.
How I Work

My Technical SEO Process

Four phases, built for depth, not checklist theatre.

01

Full-Site Technical Audit

I run a comprehensive crawl and audit using industry-leading tools, combined with AI-assisted analysis to process the full dataset quickly, covering crawlability, indexation, rendering, speed, structured data, and architecture. You get a clear, prioritized list of what's actually hurting your rankings, not a 200-item checklist with no sense of what matters.

1–2 weeks
Phase 1
02

Prioritized Fix Roadmap

Not every issue carries equal weight. I rank fixes by impact and effort, so the highest-leverage problems get solved first, the ones actually capping your traffic, not just the easiest ones to check off.

Strategy
Phase 2
03

Implementation

Depending on your setup, I implement fixes directly or work closely with your developer/team to get them shipped correctly. I stay accountable through this stage rather than handing off a PDF and disappearing.

Hands-on
Phase 3
04

Verification & Monitoring

After fixes go live, I verify they worked. Re-crawling, checking Search Console, and confirming indexation and performance actually improved. Technical SEO isn't one-time work; I monitor for regressions, since sites drift back into technical debt without ongoing attention.

Phase 4

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions: Technical SEO

Real answers to the questions clients ask most often.

Audit
What's included in a technical SEO audit?
A full audit covers crawlability, indexation, site architecture, internal linking, Core Web Vitals, structured data, JavaScript rendering, HTTPS/security configuration, and increasingly, whether your content is accessible to AI search crawlers. You'll get a prioritized report, not just a list of errors.
Basics
How is technical SEO different from on-page or content SEO?
Content and on-page SEO are about what your pages say and how they're optimized for specific keywords. Technical SEO is about whether search engines and AI systems can crawl, render, index, and understand your site in the first place. Without a solid technical foundation, even great content underperforms.
Rankings
Will fixing technical SEO issues actually improve my rankings?
It depends on what's broken, but technical issues are often capping rankings that would otherwise improve. If Google can't properly crawl or index your pages, no amount of content quality fixes that. Most clients see indexation and crawl efficiency improve within weeks, with ranking and traffic gains following as Google reprocesses the site.
Rankings
Do I need technical SEO if my site already ranks for some keywords?
Often, yes. Ranking for some terms doesn't mean your site is technically healthy. It usually means your content is strong enough to overcome technical drag. Fixing the technical layer is typically where the next level of growth comes from.
AI Search
What is JavaScript rendering, and why does it matter for SEO?
If your site relies heavily on JavaScript to display content, some crawlers may not see that content at all. Googlebot can render JavaScript, but most AI crawlers (the ones behind ChatGPT and Perplexity search features, for example) typically read only static HTML. If your key content only appears after JavaScript runs, it may be invisible to a growing share of search and AI traffic sources.
AI Search
How do you use AI in your technical SEO process?
I use AI-assisted tools to process large crawl datasets, identify patterns across hundreds or thousands of pages, and flag issues faster than manual review allows. The judgment on what to prioritize and how to fix it stays with me. AI accelerates the diagnostic work; it doesn't replace the strategy.
Process
How long does a technical SEO audit and fix process take?
A full audit typically takes 1 to 2 weeks depending on site size. Implementation timelines vary based on the issues found and whether I'm implementing fixes directly or coordinating with your development team. You'll get a clear timeline as part of the prioritized roadmap.
Process
Do you offer ongoing technical SEO support, or just a one-time audit?
Both. Some clients need a focused audit-and-fix project; others want ongoing monitoring since technical debt accumulates again over time (new pages, platform updates, plugin changes). I'll recommend whichever fits your situation honestly, not whichever is more billable.
