FAQ
What format does this document come in?
A fully formatted Word doc you can convert to PDF when you’re finished.
Do you include background information in the template?
Yes, I found I kept writing the same things over and over. So I wrote boilerplate text for each of the 18 sections and many individual checks.
How easy is it to navigate such a long document?
Very easy. There’s a dynamically generated table of contents in the beginning, with links to each section. Plus, I show you how to create links to other sections of the document for easy referencing. All of these links remain active when you convert to PDF.
Does this document get updated?
Annually (unless there’s a really big update that’s causing mayhem *cough* Google *cough*)
Do you tell me what tools to use for the different checks?
Yes, I include a list of recommended tools in the beginning of the audit and will recommend free tools whenever one is available. I’m a bit of a marketing tools aficionado.
What do you mean by “explainer graphics”?
There are more than 100 images contained in the document, with most of these being graphics that contain step-by-step instructions. Sometimes these images are static and sometimes they are animated gifs. You can view screenshots in the video.
A serious gap has existed, until now, between people who have a good foundation in SEO and the need to properly evaluate priority tasking for maximum results in that work, then present recommendations in a structured and easy to follow documented way. Until now. Annie Cushing has bridged that gap. Her 199-page self-guided audit checklist solves that problem. With it, people who don’t have experience performing audits the way Annie or I do can follow her step-by-step template approach for many situations that require the need for this type of service, at a fraction of the cost.
