Technical SEO
Technical SEO is what keeps your site discoverable, crawlable, and performing at its best. It’s also what separates a good SEO strategy from a great one. At Yoghurt Digital, we handle the complex technical work behind the scenes, so your site can be found, ranked, and trusted. From crawlability and speed to structured data and site architecture, we lay the groundwork for long-term organic growth.
Why Technical SEO Matters
Search engines need to access, understand, and serve your content fast. If they can't, you won't rank, no matter how good your content is.
Done right, technical SEO:
- Makes your site easier to crawl and index
- Improves page speed and Core Web Vitals
- Enhances user experience across devices
- Minimises crawl waste and index bloat
- Future-proofs your site against algorithm updates
We don’t just optimise for bots, we optimise for your business.

Technical SEO FAQs
Yes, technical SEO is essential to ensure that your website is accessible via search, ensuring your content can be discovered by both users and search engines. Without a well-executed technical SEO strategy, expanding your brand's digital presence and visibility will be challenging.
The importance of technical SEO remains constant, as it ensures that your website remains in sync with the latest advancements in technical SEO best practices. This is particularly vital when undertaking a website migration, where potential challenges can arise. Rest assured, our team of technical SEO experts are here to guide you every step of the way.
Your organic performance is a good indicator of whether your website is indexed correctly and optimised for search engines. At Yoghurt Digital, the first step of any technical SEO strategy we deliver is to present a comprehensive technical SEO audit to pinpoint your website’s strengths and areas of improvement.
Undoubtedly, technical SEO is the most intricate aspect of any comprehensive SEO strategy. Mismanagement of technical SEO can have detrimental effects on your website's visibility, resulting in decreased user engagement across multiple channels. Ultimately, this can significantly impact your website's performance and revenue.
Achieving outstanding technical SEO performance can be difficult to nail on your own, but you don’t have to work on it alone. Our SEO agency has had years of experience perfecting various technical SEO techniques to take your website’s organic performance to a new level.
There are several technical SEO ranking factors that come into play, including mobile friendliness, page speed, website security, website accessibility, content accessibility, site architecture, and the list goes on. Admittedly, the scope of technical SEO considerations can be overwhelming, and we know you’ve got many more things on your plate. Rest assured that our SEO experts will ensure all your technical SEO bases are covered.
It depends on the scope of the changes, the size of your site, and how quickly search engines re-crawl and re-index your pages. Some fixes, like resolving critical errors that block crawling, can have an impact in days or weeks. For others, like site speed optimisations or large-scale restructuring, it may take a few months to see improvements in rankings and traffic. At Yoghurt Digital, we give you clear timelines from the outset, track improvements, and keep you updated so you know exactly when progress is happening.
Technical SEO is the foundation that makes strong rankings possible, but it’s not the whole house. Even the most technically sound site won’t perform at its best without high-quality, relevant content and a robust off-page strategy. Think of it as tuning the engine of a car: it needs to run smoothly before you can win the race, but you still need a skilled driver (your optimised website content) and a great pit crew (your strategic link building and digital PR) to get you over the finish line. That’s why our approach combines technical excellence with broader SEO strategies.
