Website, Technical & Digital Audits

An independent view of what you have, what is working and what needs to change.

Our website, technical and digital audits help businesses, technical teams, investors, solicitors and other agencies understand their current position.

Whether you are investigating a specific problem, checking work carried out by another supplier or looking for an independent second opinion, we provide clear findings and practical recommendations for what to do next.

From code, infrastructure and security to search, marketing, accessibility and compliance, the scope, format and level of detail can be tailored to your requirements, with reports suitable for management, technical teams, investors, legal professionals or other stakeholders.

Our audits

01

Full website & technical audits

Get a clear, independent view of your website, its current condition and what needs to happen next.

A full website audit or technical website health check can include quality assurance, testing and a wider situation report covering problems, risks and priorities.

We also carry out website due diligence when buying or selling a business or digital platform, and continuity and dependency audits to identify reliance on developers, agencies, hosting providers, systems and other third parties that could leave your business exposed.

Audits include

Website audit
Website due diligence audit
Website continuity & dependency audit
02

Code audits

Understand the quality, condition and maintainability of the code behind your website or application.

We audit human-written, AI-generated and legacy code to identify technical debt, poor development practices, security or reliability concerns and areas that could make future development difficult or expensive.

Our code audits are platform agnostic, covering everything from PHP, Laravel, WordPress and Magento to other languages, frameworks and platforms, including ecommerce platforms, plugins, extensions, APIs and integrations with third-party services such as payment providers and CRM systems.

03

Expert witness reports

When a web or software project goes wrong, we provide an independent technical review of what was promised, what was delivered and the quality of the work carried out.

This can include assessing whether the code is up to an acceptable standard, comparing a finished or half-finished project against its contract, specification or agreed deliverables, and identifying missing, incomplete or substandard work.

Where required, our findings can be provided as a formal expert witness report for disputes and legal proceedings.

Reports include

Independent development quality review
Contract vs delivery audit
Incomplete project assessment
04

Marketing audits

Find out how effectively your website is being found, how efficiently your marketing budget is being spent and whether the traffic you generate is turning into enquiries or sales.

Our audits cover technical and content SEO, keywords and search visibility, alongside AEO, GEO and visibility within AI-powered search and answer engines. We can review PPC campaigns across platforms including Google Ads and Microsoft Ads, as well as analytics and tracking through tools such as GA4.

Conversion rate optimisation (CRO) and UX reviews look at what visitors do once they reach your website, identifying usability issues, friction and missed opportunities that may be preventing them from converting.

Areas we review

AI search / AEO & GEO audit
Paid search / PPC audit

05

Hosting & infrastructure audits

Make sure you are not paying too much for infrastructure that is slow, unreliable, outdated or unsuitable for where your business is heading.

We assess hosting and server configuration, performance, running costs, scalability and dependencies on third-party services, software and infrastructure. We can identify unnecessary costs, capacity limitations and outdated or end-of-life technology, helping you understand where money can be saved, where risks need addressing and whether your current setup can support future growth.

We can audit

Performance audit
Scalability audit
Running costs audit
Technology lifecycle / end-of-life audit
06

Security audits

Understand how secure your website and infrastructure really are, where you may be exposed and what needs to be fixed.

Our security audits can identify vulnerabilities through technical reviews and penetration testing, as well as assess security requirements for regulatory, contractual or cyber insurance purposes.

If you have already been hacked or compromised, we can investigate what happened, identify the likely cause and provide a clear plan for securing the website and reducing the risk of it happening again.

Security audits cover

Security audit
Infrastructure security audit
Post-hack investigation
07

Compliance & accessibility audits

Understand whether your website, systems and handling of data meet the standards and requirements that apply to your organisation.

We can review digital governance and compliance across areas including PCI DSS, cookies and consent, the collection and storage of sensitive data, and data protection and GDPR, identifying gaps and practical steps to address them.

Our accessibility audits assess websites against recognised standards, including WCAG, helping you understand where users may face barriers and what needs to change.

We can review

Compliance audit
Data protection audit
Accessibility audit

Audits tailored to your requirements

Every business, website and situation is different, so our audits don't have to fit a fixed package.

Choose a single audit, combine areas from across our services, or tell us what you need to understand and we'll shape the review around it. We can investigate and report on specific questions, problems or concerns, providing as much or as little scope as your situation requires.
