Technical SEO audit: what's holding back your ranking
What you don't see, Google penalizes.
bons clients.
We identify what's hindering your visibility on search engines

Why conduct
an SEO technical audit?
01
IDENTIFY WHAT'S HOLDING BACK YOUR GROWTH
Indexing errors, loading speed, broken links, missing tags… A technical audit uncovers all the invisible roadblocks preventing your site from performing and provides a clear action plan to fix them.
02
IMPROVE YOUR GOOGLE RANKING
A technically sound website is better crawled, better indexed, and better ranked. A technical audit is the essential foundation of any effective SEO strategy; without it, all your content efforts are limited.
03
PREPARE YOUR SITE FOR THE AI ERA (GEO)
Generative engines favor structured, fast, and reliable websites. A technical audit optimized for GEO increases your chances of being cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, etc., and strengthens your online authority.

We start by understanding your context: technical stack, business objectives, perceived issues, and site history. An audit without context produces generic recommendations. We focus on your real challenges to prioritize what truly matters.

Generative Engine Optimization Audit

Generative Engine Optimization Audit
We assess your visibility in generative search engines: is your brand cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Gemini for your target queries? Is your content structured to be used as a source by AI? This is the new blind spot in most SEO audits.

Scope & Objectives
We start by understanding your context: technical stack, business objectives, perceived issues, and site history. An audit without context yields generic recommendations. We use your real challenges to prioritize what truly matters.

Most agencies make a great first impression and sell you the dream in those early conversations, but that illusion fades fast once the contract is signed. With Gemeos, it’s different. Gemeos are professional and genuinely committed to doing things right and fast. I really recommend them. And this is the first time I’ve ever recommended an agency.
Quentin Mayet
VP Marketing @Paradox
We worked with Gemeos in the summer of 2024 to redesign Modjo’s marketing site and better reflect the brand’s new positioning. The collaboration was incredibly efficient, the agency was highly responsive and adapted to every unexpected challenge. With limited resources on our side, right in the middle of summer, we launched the new site in just six weeks. Site visit engagement increased by 58%!
Thomas Beylot
VP Product @Modjo

“Great Webflow agency. Available, attentive, and responsive. We brought them in to redesign our Nuant.com website, providing the Figma mockups. We’re very happy with the result, and their Webflow expertise is a real asset.”
Leo Carli
Product Marketing Manager @Nuant
We worked with Gemeos for several months on the redesign of our site and the launch of our new Taalent.ai offering in the U.S. market. The team was able to combine strategic vision, high-quality execution, and great responsiveness throughout the project. An effective collaboration that I’d recommend without hesitation.

Efficiency, structure, and performance. Gemeos managed to translate Avnear’s identity into a website that exceeded our expectations. Client feedback has been unanimous. The team showed remarkable agility in adapting to our requests and our high standards. A trusted partner we’d recommend without hesitation. Our site is a masterclass in building trust.
Charley Arod
Founding Partner. Asset & Risk Management @Avnear
Gemeos worked on the Webflow integration as part of our website redesign, with the goal of giving our Growth team back control over landing page creation and improving web performance and SEO. I highly recommend Sandro for his availability, responsiveness, teaching approach, and, above all, his understanding of our business needs.
Florian Corteel
SEO Manager @Finary
Thanks to the whole team, always going the extra mile to push the boundaries!
Florent Darrault
CMO @Cureety
We entrusted Gemeos with a full website redesign and migration, and everything went incredibly smoothly. What stood out most to us was the quality of the art direction: a truly premium, cohesive visual direction, with a clear visual identity and highly polished choices throughout — typography, colors, iconography, pacing, hierarchy, and more. You can tell they have great taste, and above all, a real eye for detail on every screen. On top of that, the team is incredibly responsive and very experienced: they know both design and the technical side inside out. I’d recommend them without hesitation.
David BERNARD
CEO & Founder @AssessFirst
Sacha & Sandro worked on the redesign and migration of our website with a few clear goals: create a unique, differentiated visual identity, clarify our message and value proposition, smooth out the customer journey, and ultimately generate more business opportunities. We’re very happy with the result, and the numbers speak for themselves. Sacha & Sandro are skilled, committed, conscientious, passionate, and they see things through to the end. I highly recommend them!

WhattheFAQ
What is a semantic SEO audit?
A semantic SEO audit analyzes how your site covers your industry's topics from Google's perspective. The goal: identify the keywords you should be visible on, the ones you're already ranking for, the content gaps to fill, and cannibalization issues (several pages competing on the same query).
It's the essential companion to the technical audit: one diagnoses the infrastructure, the other diagnoses the content strategy.
How does a semantic audit work?
A semantic audit runs in four steps. First, extracting existing rankings via Google Search Console and Ahrefs to map the current state. Next, keyword research to identify unaddressed opportunities. Then, competitive analysis to understand which topics your competitors rank better on than you. Finally, producing a prioritized content plan listing the pages to create, optimize, or merge.
How do you prioritize SEO keywords?
Keyword prioritization relies on three combined criteria: search volume, ranking difficulty (KD), and search intent. A high-volume keyword with high KD can be less of a priority than a moderate-volume keyword with low KD and strong transactional intent.
For a startup or scale-up starting from zero in SEO, a long-tail strategy is always more effective at the start: precise, less competitive queries with clear purchase or comparison intent.
How much does a semantic SEO audit cost?
A semantic audit at Gemeos starts at €1,000. It's often combined with the technical audit for a total of €2,500 to €5,000, which is the ideal starting point before launching a content strategy.
A well-executed semantic audit produces a content plan that can structure 12 to 18 months of production. It's a one-time investment that serves as a long-term compass.
What's the difference between a semantic audit and keyword research?
Keyword research is a component of a semantic audit, not a synonym for it. Keyword research identifies the queries you could rank for. A semantic audit goes further: it analyzes your current coverage, detects cannibalization, assesses your site's topical consistency, and produces a structured action plan.
Does a semantic audit improve search rankings?
Not directly. A semantic audit doesn't produce results by itself: it's a diagnostic. What improves rankings is executing the recommendations that come out of the audit. On the other hand, executing a content strategy without a prior semantic audit means producing content without knowing whether you're targeting the right queries, whether you're cannibalizing your own pages, or whether your competitors already dominate the space too strongly.
A semantic audit turns a potentially random content investment into a structured, prioritized strategy. That's the difference between writing to write and writing to rank.
How do you avoid SEO cannibalization?
SEO cannibalization happens when several pages on your site target the same query. Google doesn't know which one to favor and ends up ranking neither well. This is a common problem on sites that have produced content in an unstructured way over several years.
Three actions can fix it: merging pages that overlap on the same topic, designating a canonical page and 301-redirecting the others to it, or reworking the angles to clearly differentiate the targeted intents.
At Gemeos, cannibalization detection is part of the systematic deliverables of the semantic audit. On sites with 2 to 3 years of content, we regularly find 10 to 20% of pages in a state of partial or full cannibalization.
