How it works
Our 3-Step Audit Process
Order, we crawl and verify, you get a roadmap. No onboarding calls, no retainers, no surprises. Here is what happens between checkout and your inbox.
Timeline
From checkout to delivered PDF
A typical Professional audit, start to finish.
Minute 0
You place the order
Pick a tier, enter your domain and up to three competitors, pay securely online. You get an order reference and a confirmation email immediately. No account required.
Minutes later
The crawl starts automatically
As soon as payment clears, the OctaneAudit crawler reads your site from the homepage and sitemap while Google PageSpeed Insights measures Core Web Vitals on your key templates.
Essential: usually within the hour
Essential report delivered
Essential audits are fully automated. When the crawl and performance tests complete cleanly, the PDF is emailed to you right away. If anything looks off, a person reviews it before it is sent.
Professional and Enterprise
Auditor review and extended analysis
An auditor reviews the automated findings, removes noise, and adds the parts a crawler cannot do: backlink health, competitor gap analysis and, for Enterprise, log files and the consultation call.
Inside the SLA
PDF delivered
You receive an email with the PDF attached plus a dashboard link. Essential within 48h, Professional within 72h, Enterprise within 5 business days.
Behind the scenes
Enterprise tooling, human judgement
Automated crawlers run the same class of tools used by large agencies, then a manual review does the part software cannot: deciding what actually matters for your site.
Site crawl engine
OctaneAudit Crawler
Reads the HTML your server returns, respects robots.txt and maps internal links, redirects, canonicals, metadata and structured data: up to 25, 500 or 5,000 pages by tier.
Performance lab and field data
Google PageSpeed Insights
Runs Lighthouse on a throttled mobile profile and adds Chrome UX Report field data where Google has enough real-user traffic.
Rule engine
60+ automated checks
Indexing, on-page SEO, structured data, hreflang, links, performance, mobile and HTTPS checks, each with a plain-language fix.
Professional and Enterprise
Human review
An auditor confirms root causes, discards noise and adds the analysis tools cannot do, such as competitor gaps and backlink health.
Deliverables
