Know exactly where your site stands.
An independent review of your code, security, performance, accessibility and SEO — with a prioritised action plan your team can start on immediately.
Why it matters
Clarity before you invest
Whether you are planning a rebuild, inheriting a site or chasing a slow homepage, an audit replaces guesswork with evidence — and tells you what to fix first.
Evidence, not opinions
Findings backed by tooling, metrics and reproducible tests.
Prioritised
Every issue ranked by impact and effort so quick wins come first.
Explained
A walkthrough call for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Overview
A WordPress site audit you can act on
-
01
The challenge
Slow pages, mysterious errors, a plugin list nobody can explain — most teams sense that something is wrong long before they can say what. An audit turns that unease into a ranked list of facts. We combine automated tooling with hands-on review by senior engineers, because scanners find symptoms while people find causes.
-
02
Our approach
The wider numbers show why it matters. WebAIM’s 2026 survey of the top million home pages found detectable WCAG failures on 95.9% of them, the HTTP Archive reports that only 45% of WordPress sites pass Core Web Vitals on mobile, and 91% of new WordPress vulnerabilities are found in plugins. An audit checks exactly those risks on your site: the code, the plugin stack, server response and the experience in real browsers and assistive technology.

03
What you get
You receive a report that rates every finding by severity and effort, explains it in plain language and shows the evidence. A walkthrough call aligns technical and non-technical stakeholders, and the costed roadmap that follows is yours to deliver with us, your own team or anyone else.
Is this you?
A good fit if…

FAQ
Questions, answered
How long does an audit take?
Most audits take one to three weeks depending on the size of the site and the areas in scope.
What access do you need?
Read access to the code repository and a staging copy is ideal; we can also audit from the front end only.
Do we have to hire you to fix the issues?
No. The report is yours to act on with any team. Many clients do choose us to implement the plan.
Can you audit a single area, like performance?
Yes. Audits can be focused on one area or cover everything.
What do you deliver at the end of an audit?
A written report with an executive summary, every finding rated by severity and effort with supporting evidence, a prioritised roadmap and a recorded walkthrough call.
Will the audit affect our live site?
No. We test against staging where possible, use read-only access and schedule any load or scan testing with you in advance.
