Technical Audit

Technical Audit checks the technical health of your site — the issues that can block Google and AI assistants from reading and ranking it — and the agent fixes what your connected platform lets it change, with exact instructions for anything else. Find it under SEO → Technical Audit in the sidebar. The audit checks the top 300 pages from your Google Search Console, ranked by impressions — the pages that carry your traffic.

​

Scores

• Health Score — 0–100 technical health of your site, weighted across SEO, LLM readiness and page speed.
• SEO Optimization Score — meta tags, links, sitemap, canonicals.
• LLM Optimization Score — llms.txt, AI crawlers, structured data: how well AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity) can read and cite your site.
• Page Speed Score — Core Web Vitals from real Chrome users.

Click What we check for the full list of checks: llms.txt, JSON-LD schema, robots.txt, sitemap, SSL certificate, meta title and description, broken links, image optimization, page speed and canonical tags.

​

Run a scan

The audit runs weekly on its own. Click Run Scan to run it anytime — it takes a few minutes, and you can close the page while it works.

​

Read the issues

Issues Detected lists every problem with its severity — Critical, Warning or Notice. Switch between Group by page (each page with its score and issues, plus a row for site-wide checks) and Group by issue (each issue with the number of affected pages).

​

The audit says “No audit yet” or never finishes

The audit picks the pages to check from your Google Search Console, so connect Search Console first — without it, Ryze can only fall back to your homepage and sitemap, and the scores don’t reflect the pages that carry your traffic. If your site is behind bot protection — Cloudflare Bot Fight Mode or a high Security Level, Wordfence, a web application firewall — the crawler is blocked and pages can’t be checked. Lower the protection or allow automated requests to your site, then click Run Scan. The audit also runs weekly on its own. See Crawl errors.

Fix with the agent

Click Fix with agent on a page, an issue or the site-wide row. The agent opens with the task filled in. It first checks what your connected platform lets it change, fixes what it can (for example meta tags, alt text, broken links in content), and gives you exact step-by-step instructions for anything it can’t reach — such as robots.txt on WordPress or llms.txt on Shopify. Without a connected CMS you get instructions only. Important issues also show up in the Needs you list on Home. If an issue is known and you accept it, open its actions menu and click Acknowledge; Reopen brings it back.
