Phase 2: SEO Elements
Title tags, meta descriptions, heading structure, entity signals. The structural foundation that tells search engines what each page is about.
- Meta tag completeness AND accuracy
- Heading hierarchy vs content structure
- Canonical + hreflang correctness
What Phase 2 covers.

Missing, duplicate, and off-topic titles
Meta tags + OG/Twitter cards
Title tags are the first signal search engines use to understand your page. We check every page for missing titles, duplicates across the site, length issues that get truncated in search results, and whether the title actually matches the page topic.
- Accuracy-checked against actual page content, not just presence.
- AI-generated recommendations unique to your site, not a generic checklist everyone else gets
- E-E-A-T scoring, readability analysis, and conversion copy evaluation in one pass

Length, uniqueness, and topical accuracy
Headings, canonicals, crawlability
Meta descriptions are your sales pitch in the search results. We check every page for missing or duplicate descriptions, evaluate length to avoid truncation, and use AI to flag descriptions that don't match what the page actually offers.
- Heading hierarchy, canonical tags, crawlability, XML sitemap presence, robots.txt.
- Schema markup validation, meta tag completeness, heading hierarchy, and internal link structure
- Mobile responsiveness, image optimization, and resource loading analysis

H1-H6 structure and brand identity signals
Entity signals and topic authority
Headings give search engines and screen readers a map of the page. We validate the H1-H6 hierarchy, flag pages with missing or multiple H1s, and check entity identity signals like business name consistency and schema markup.
- Entity signals (who your business is), internal link structure, topic authority signals.
- ADA/WCAG accessibility compliance checking with specific violation identification
- AI readiness scoring, how well AI assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity can find and recommend your business
