No one tool can do it all, and at the end of the day you\u2019re going to need a mix of tools. This mix will depend on the size of your website and overall audit goals, but here\u2019s a general list:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Your CMS: <\/strong>You\u2019ll of course need access to the backend of your website (WordPress, Squarespace, etc.) so you can check and adjust metadata, HTML tags, links, and the content itself.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A mobile device: <\/strong>You\u2019ll need to do some manual testing in this audit.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Google Analytics: <\/strong>This will help you identify which pages to audit, based on traffic and goal performance. It will also be necessary for gathering any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wordstream.com\/blog\/ws\/2021\/07\/27\/seo-metrics\">SEO metrics<\/a> you want to use, prioritizing action items, and measuring improvements. (<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/analytics\/answer\/1008015?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google shows you how to connect your site to GA here<\/a>. But if you\u2019re only just getting connected now, off on the SEO portion of the audit for about a month so you can give Google time to collect data.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Google Search Console: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.search.google.com\">GSC<\/a> is essential for both the content and technical SEO audit. You\u2019ll also need it for requesting pages for reindexing after you\u2019ve fixed them, submitting sitemaps, and more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Page speed calculators: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pagespeed.web.dev\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google\u2019s PageSpeed Insights<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/gtmetrix.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GTMetrix<\/a> are great.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Image compressor: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tinypng.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tinypng.com<\/a> is my go-to, but you might also need a gif compressor like <a href=\"https:\/\/ezgif.com\/optimize\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ezgif.com<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>SEO software:<\/strong> If you\u2019re going to look at deeper SEO metrics like backlinks, competitive information, and keyword data, you\u2019ll need a tool like Ahrefs, Moz Pro, Screaming Frog, SEMrush, etc. Some of these offer free trial versions or free services for the first 500 (or something) links. You can learn more about these in my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wordstream.com\/blog\/ws\/2013\/09\/18\/best-keyword-research-tools\">round-up of the best keyword research tools.<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Accessibility audit tools: <\/strong>For the sake of this audit, something like <a href=\"https:\/\/wave.webaim.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WAVE<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webaccessibility.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">webaccessibility.com<\/a> should do the trick.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Website graders: <\/strong>Grader tools offer a little more guidance. With SEO software, you oftentimes need to know what you\u2019re looking for and how to make sense of the [copious amounts of] data and information. That\u2019s not a bad thing, but for non SEOs, website graders can simplify things and tell you what the results mean.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For example, our <a href=\"https:\/\/localiq.com\/localiq-grader?utm_source=wordstream&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=freemium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">free website grader<\/a> helps you to make sense of each item in the report, with prioritized results and an expandable \u201cwhy this matters\u201d and \u201chow to fix this\u201d tab for each element.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/mailinvest.blog\/wp-content\/themes\/breek\/assets\/images\/transparent.gif\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.wordstream.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/localiq-online-presence-website-grader-sample-report.png\" alt=\"localiq online presence grader sample report\" width=\"701\" height=\"529\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-56038\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wordstream.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/localiq-online-presence-website-grader-sample-report.png 701w, https:\/\/www.wordstream.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/localiq-online-presence-website-grader-sample-report-480x362.png 480w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 701px, 100vw\"\/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/localiq.com\/localiq-grader?utm_source=wordstream&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=freemium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Head <strong>here<\/strong> to get a website audit with our free website grader tool.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>How to do a website audit without going insane<\/h2>\n<p>You can do these in order, jump around, or mix and match.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Light site audit<\/li>\n<li>SEO content<\/li>\n<li>Technical SEO<\/li>\n<li>Design\/UX<\/li>\n<li>Accessibility<\/li>\n<li>Conversions<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>1.
