Crawl and index fixes
Review robots rules, canonicals, redirects and rendering where they affect pages worth finding.
Technical SEO implementation
Technical SEO fixes that actually get shipped.
I work through the technical barriers that stop useful pages being found or understood. The output is not a long audit score. It is an ordered set of changes, implemented and checked.
Selected teams I have worked with
Fix the paths between a useful page and its audience.
Technical SEO matters when it protects content people need and makes the site easier to crawl, understand and use. I focus on issues with a plausible customer or revenue effect.

Crawlability
Crawl and index fixes
I trace why an important page is not being crawled, rendered or indexed as intended, then fix the specific cause. That can include robots rules, canonicals, status codes, redirects or JavaScript rendering. The priority is always the pages that answer a real customer need, not producing a long list of technically possible warnings.
Content structure
Architecture and internal links
Important pages should be reachable through useful navigation and contextual links, not only through a sitemap. I group related services, guides and case studies around the questions a visitor is trying to answer. This gives search engines clearer discovery paths while helping people move naturally from information to evidence and the right next step.
Performance
CMS and template improvements
When an issue appears across many pages, I fix the template or publishing model that creates it. Titles, canonicals, structured fields, internal links and content controls can then remain consistent as the site grows. This is more dependable than correcting each page by hand and seeing the same problem return with the next publish.
Accessibility
Migration safeguards
Before a redesign or platform move, I map valuable URLs to their best new destinations and identify content that needs to be preserved. Redirects, canonicals, internal links and the sitemap are checked together. After release, I test the live responses and monitor Search Console so unexpected changes can be corrected while the move is still fresh.
Relevant work and thinking
Process
Diagnose only far enough to make the right change.
Find the affected journey
I look at the pages, queries and paths that matter, then confirm the specific technical issue before changing anything.
Implement at the right level
A template, routing rule or content model is often the right fix. I avoid repetitive page-by-page patches when the source can be corrected.
Verify after release
I test redirects, canonicals, crawl paths and index signals on the live site, then watch Search Console for unexpected changes.

Technical SEO implementation FAQs
Clear answers about scope, process and what happens next.
An audit finds and orders the issues. Technical SEO implementation makes the agreed changes, tests them and checks their effect after release. We can start with a narrow problem if a full audit is unnecessary.
No. I can fix barriers to crawling, indexing and understanding useful pages. Rankings also depend on the query, competition, content and other factors outside a technical change.
Yes. I map relevant old URLs to the best new destinations, test the rules and check that internal links, canonicals and the sitemap agree after launch.
I can do both, but implementation is usually the useful part. I prioritise the issues, make the agreed changes where I have access, test them and document anything that needs another developer or platform owner.
I regularly work with Webflow, Astro and modern custom stacks, and I can review issues on other platforms where the templates, redirects and technical settings are accessible. I will be clear when a platform limitation needs a different specialist.
We check whether the affected pages can be crawled, indexed and understood as intended, then watch relevant impressions, clicks and customer outcomes over time. The measure depends on the problem, not a generic site score.
