Kia Ora Digital runs a detailed SEO audit showing exactly how much room your site has to grow, and what is currently preventing it.
See where you rank and get your custom roadmap. No obligation.
Real brands we have grown with SEO and AI Search, across ecommerce, lead generation and local.
Want to know how the site is really performing, or seen traffic drop without explanation? An audit answers both. We examine technical health, content, links and AI Overview visibility, then return a prioritised list with the likely value of each fix.
A straight assessment of the site's SEO health, covering what is working, what is not, and which of those is worth fixing first.
We go through the technical foundations: crawl errors, page speed, mobile usability, indexation, and the rendering faults that make content invisible to a search engine.
With the current setup understood, we rebuild the strategy from its foundations instead of stacking fixes on top of something that was never right.

We connect audit findings to commercial goals, which is the part most audits omit. A list of problems is not a plan.
Regular reviews track progress and tighten strategy as competitors move. A site well optimised two years ago is frequently no longer competitive today.
Google changes constantly and problems accrue quietly. An audit pins down what shifted, when it shifted, and what it has cost you since.
Google rewards content built for a specific audience. Templated pages compete with each other and generally all lose, which is among the most common issues we find on UK sites.
Stuffing keywords stopped working a long time ago. Google now judges whether the page actually resolves the query, which is both a higher bar and a more stable one.
When a page is slow to load, visitors lose patience and bounce off to another website. That’s a poor user experience. Google notices this when it measures your Core Web Vitals and uses the data to rank your site accordingly. We offer speed optimisation services so you can keep that from happening.
Does it work properly on a phone? That is where most UK searching happens, Google indexes the mobile version, and a desktop-first build gets judged at its weakest.
Have your images been optimised for the web? If they aren’t search-friendly or they load slowly, that can take a real toll on your Core Web Vitals and the overall user experience on your site. This applies to features like sliders and banners too.
Are your URLs short and legible, or endless parameter strings? It affects how the site is crawled and whether anyone clicks it in the results.
How navigable is the site? Dead links, orphan pages and tangled hierarchies all reduce how much of it Google is willing to index.
This means using unethical tactics to build SEO and optimise your website. With link building, it might look like cramming too many internal links across your pages, or paying for links on other websites to manufacture backlinks.
Our team knows how to make pages rank, and is equally willing to tell you when a page is not worth spending on.

Our Process
The audit is not a report that sits in a drawer. It is step one of a plan built to grow your rankings, traffic and enquiries.
We crawl your site and benchmark your visibility on Google and ChatGPT to surface every issue costing you traffic.
We rank every finding by revenue impact so you know exactly which fixes to tackle first.
We resolve technical issues, strengthen key pages and rebuild authority signals in priority order.
We track rankings, traffic and enquiries, then re-audit regularly so your gains keep compounding.
“The traffic to our website increased by a whopping 65%, leading to a significant improvement in our transactions by 15%. Their innovative strategies helped us achieve a 22% increase in organic revenue.”
“Partnering with the team at Kia Ora has been an absolute game-changer for our organic growth. In just last month’s data alone, our non-branded search revenue is up over 41%. They execute a highly tailored strategy that delivers measurable revenue growth.”
“So happy with our results. Our organic web visitors more than doubled in 5 months, with sales coming through pages we run no paid advertising on. Always great to chat to Dan and Ben for extra inspiration.”
“They are metric-focused, which is really important to us as an eCommerce brand. We’ve seen consistent growth in organic traffic and revenue, and their team always ties activity back to measurable results.”
“Kia Ora Digital have been our SEO partner and the results have genuinely exceeded our expectations. From the start they took the time to understand our business and our products, then built a clear, considered strategy to match.”
“From the outset, they took the time to understand our brand, our audience, and our growth goals. Their approach is data-led, transparent, and performance-driven.”
“Dan and Ben helped with our small OSH consultants business here in New Zealand and the sales just keep coming! Well done and I will recommend them to other businesses looking to grow.”
“Partnering with Kia Ora Digital has been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our business.”
“Only 3 months in and they have already exceeded our expectations. Dan knows his stuff. We only wish we had chosen Kia Ora earlier instead of some of the other cowboys in the industry.”
Wondering how much an SEO audit can lift your traffic? The answer is in your data. At Kia Ora, we analyse the SEO KPIs that count to surface opportunities, diagnose problems, and lay out a clear path to better performance.
A strong SEO audit gives you the full picture, from technical fixes and on-page optimisations to keyword gaps and backlink strategy. These insights build your website’s authority over time, position you as a trusted leader in your space, and open the door to stronger visibility and sales growth. On top of that, detailed KPI reporting keeps communication clear with your stakeholders at every step.
Audits are groundwork rather than checklists. Every finding carries an estimate of what fixing it is worth, so you can sequence by return instead of by effort.
At Kia Ora, we specialise in tailored SEO audits for eCommerce businesses. Our aim is to help your store climb higher by uncovering technical issues, content gaps, and missed opportunities that may be holding you back.
With years of experience in the eCommerce space, we understand the specific challenges online retailers face, and how to solve them. You can count on our team for expert insight and clear, actionable recommendations.

Still have questions, or unsure whether an audit is the right starting point?
Technical foundations, on-page content, site architecture, Core Web Vitals, your backlink profile and your visibility in AI Overviews, which now sit above organic results on a large share of UK commercial queries.
Both. On-page covers content, structure and technical health; off-page covers your link profile and citations. Most traffic problems sit in one or the other, and separating them determines what you fix first.
Yes, and they are written for developers rather than marketers. Each item specifies what to change, where, and what it should affect, so it goes straight into a sprint.
We model it rather than guess. Using current rankings, UK search volumes and realistic CTR curves, we estimate what each fix is likely to return, and we say plainly where the estimate is uncertain.
Yes. Many clients implement the audit in-house and bring us back to verify. Others hand us the roadmap. We will tell you honestly which findings genuinely need specialist help.
Two to three weeks for a full audit. Anything faster is an automated crawl report, which finds broken links and explains nothing about why you rank where you do.
Yes. We map which terms you can realistically win against current UK competition, which you already hold, and which are not worth pursuing at your present authority.
Yes. We assess link quality, relevance and velocity, and flag anything manipulative enough to carry risk. Disavowal is only recommended where there is genuine evidence of harm.
Pricing scales with site size and complexity. A 50-page service site and a 40,000-URL ecommerce store are different exercises. We quote before starting and there are no additional charges after.
A prioritised list where every finding carries an estimate of the traffic or revenue at stake and what fixing it involves. Without that ordering it is a crawl export, not an audit.
Two to three weeks. Anything delivered in 48 hours is an automated crawl that finds broken links and explains nothing about why you rank where you do.
Annually for most sites, and immediately after a traffic drop, a migration or a major algorithm update. Continuous monitoring covers the gaps.
Usually. Most drops trace to an algorithm update, a technical change, lost links or a competitor improving. An audit separates them, which matters because the fixes differ entirely.
It should. AI Overviews now sit above organic results on a large share of UK commercial queries, and an audit that ignores citation visibility is measuring half the channel.
Yes. The audit is written to be actioned in-house, with each item specified clearly enough to hand straight to a ticket.
Therapy practices use our audits to find the trust and technical gaps limiting new client enquiries.
Law firms use our audits to surface the technical and content problems holding back high-value instructions.
