Technical SEO Services
Rank Ray is a technical SEO agency. We find what stops search engines from crawling, rendering and indexing your site, rank those problems by the traffic and revenue they cost you, and give your developers clear tickets to fix them. We then check each release so the fix actually works.
What technical SEO is and why it limits your rankings
Technical SEO is the work that lets search engines reach, understand and trust your pages: how the site is built, how fast it loads, which URLs are indexed and how the pages connect. Content and links cannot make up for pages Google cannot crawl or chooses not to index, so fixing these basics often removes the ceiling on everything else you do in SEO.
It sits underneath all of our search engine optimization services. For stores with large catalogs see our ecommerce SEO services, for very large sites our enterprise SEO service, and for businesses that serve a local area our local SEO services.
Technical problems we find most often
Important pages missing from the index. Hundreds of duplicate or parameter URLs. Redirect chains after a redesign. Pages that are slow on mobile. JavaScript content that never renders for Google. Wrong canonical tags. Broken or missing structured data. Robots rules that block pages by mistake.
We start with an audit that separates the problems that cost you traffic from the ones that only look bad in a tool. Try our free SEO audit tool for a first look, or see our enterprise SEO audit services for larger sites.
Who we work with
In-house SEO and marketing teams that need specialist technical help; developers who want clear specs; ecommerce brands with large catalogs; and SaaS businesses and publishers on JavaScript frameworks. We work on WordPress (see our WordPress SEO services), Shopify (see our Shopify SEO services), Webflow, custom CMS and headless builds.
We support businesses in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and the United Arab Emirates, including multi-language sites. Technical fixes work best next to strong pages and links, so we plan them with your link building and content work.
Technical SEO for AI search: crawler access, llms.txt and clean content
AI search tools and answer engines fetch your pages with their own crawlers. We check which AI crawlers your robots.txt and firewall allow or block, whether key content is available without heavy JavaScript, whether your facts, authors and entities are consistent, and whether an llms.txt file is useful for your site.
Test your setup with our AI visibility audit tool, and read how this fits into our generative engine optimization service. These steps remove technical blockers. They do not guarantee that an AI tool will cite you.

Technical SEO services we provide
Each service below ends in work your developers can ship and we can check. Structured data can be previewed with our schema markup generator.
Technical SEO audit
A full crawl and review of indexation, status codes, canonicals, redirects, sitemaps, robots rules, internal links, mobile usability, speed and structured data, cross-checked against Search Console. You receive a prioritised list sorted by impact and effort, with the affected URLs, the cause, the fix and how to test it.
Crawling, indexing and crawl budget
We check what Google crawls versus what you want indexed, then fix the gap: orphan pages, thin and duplicate pages, parameter and faceted URLs, pagination, noindex mistakes, soft 404s, XML sitemap quality and robots.txt rules.
Site architecture and internal linking
We map click depth, hub pages and link flow, then rebuild navigation, breadcrumbs and in-content links so your key pages are easy to reach and the right pages get authority. Orphan and over-deep pages are flagged with specific links to add.
Core Web Vitals and page speed
We measure Largest Contentful Paint, Interaction to Next Paint and Cumulative Layout Shift on real-user data and lab tests, find the cause per template (images, fonts, scripts, server response, layout shifts) and write the fix for your stack. We test after release, because speed fixes often regress.
JavaScript and rendering SEO
If your site uses React, Next.js, Vue or other frameworks, we check what Google sees after rendering versus what the browser shows: missing content, blocked resources, client-side routing, lazy-loaded text and internal links that are not real links. We recommend server-side rendering, static generation or hybrid fixes that fit your build.
Structured data and schema
We plan and implement the schema types that fit your pages (Organization, Product, Article, FAQ where eligible, LocalBusiness, Service, BreadcrumbList), validate them, and monitor errors in Search Console.
Canonicals, redirects and duplicate content
We find duplicate and near-duplicate URLs, fix canonical tags, clean up redirect chains and loops, and set one clear version of each page so ranking signals are not split.
International SEO and hreflang
For multi-country and multi-language sites we set up hreflang, choose the URL structure (subfolders, subdomains or separate domains), handle regional duplicate content and set canonical rules so the right version shows in each market, including Arabic versions.
Technical SEO for ecommerce
Faceted navigation, variants, out-of-stock pages and large catalogs need their own rules. We improve crawl depth, product page indexing, canonical tags, pagination, internal linking and structured product data.
How a technical SEO engagement runs
Technical SEO only pays off when the fixes ship and stay shipped. Our process is built around that: a clear baseline, tickets your developers can act on, support while they build, and monitoring afterwards.
Crawl and audit
We crawl the site, connect Search Console and analytics, and review server and CMS setup. Output: a baseline and a prioritised issue list.
Prioritised ticket list
Every issue becomes a ticket with the URLs affected, why it matters, the fix, an acceptance test, an impact estimate and an owner. You can load it straight into Jira, Linear or Asana.
Developer support and release checks
We join calls with your developers or agency, answer questions, review pull requests where useful, and test staging and live after each release.
Monitoring and monthly reporting
We watch indexation, crawl errors, Core Web Vitals, rankings and traffic for the pages we changed. Reports show what shipped, what moved and what is next.
One-off audit or ongoing retainer
Choose a one-off audit with a ticket list and walkthrough call, or a retainer with ongoing fixes, release checks and monitoring. Contact us to scope either one for your site.
What we will not promise
We do not promise Core Web Vitals scores, index inclusion or a ranking position. We promise a clear diagnosis, specific fixes and a check that each one worked.
Frequently Asked Questions about Technical SEO
What do technical SEO services include?
Crawl and index audit, site architecture, speed and Core Web Vitals, structured data, JavaScript rendering, international setup and monitoring, with tickets for your developers.
How much do technical SEO services cost?
Technical SEO is $1,200 a month. Three month minimum, then month to month. See all packages and prices, or ask for a quote if your site is larger than usual.
How long does technical SEO take to show results?
Fixes to crawling and indexing can show within weeks once Google recrawls. Speed and structure gains usually appear over 2 to 4 months. Large rebuilds need longer monitoring.
How do I know if I need a technical SEO audit?
Signs include pages missing from Google, falling traffic after a site change, slow mobile pages, many "Crawled - currently not indexed" or duplicate pages in Search Console, or a site built on a JavaScript framework.
What is the difference between technical SEO and on-page SEO?
Technical SEO makes the site crawlable, fast and indexable. On-page SEO shapes each page's content, headings, titles and links. You need both, and technical issues should be fixed first when pages are not indexed.
Do you work with our developers?
Yes. We write tickets with acceptance tests, join calls, review staging and check the live release. We can also work with your agency.
Do you work with Shopify, WordPress, Webflow and custom or headless sites?
Yes, all of them, including React and Next.js builds. Recommendations are specific to your platform.
