/ Technical SEO agency that speaks developer

The technical SEO agency that speaks developer.

Most SEO audits die in a spreadsheet. As a technical SEO agency, we work the way your engineers do: tickets with acceptance criteria, reviews on staging, QA before release, and fixes we ship ourselves when you give us theme or Git access. Senior specialists only, and founder-led.

/ Sound familiar?

The audit was delivered. Nothing shipped.

If you've hired SEO help before, you probably got findings. What you needed was changes in production, and that takes someone who can work with your developers.

A spreadsheet, then silence

The last agency exported 600 rows from a crawler, marked half of them critical and moved on. Your developers couldn't tell which ones mattered or what done looked like.

Tickets nobody could build

Improve page speed and fix canonicals sat in the backlog for months, because they had no scope, no affected templates and no way to test them.

SEO broke in the last release

A new filter component or navigation refactor shipped on Friday. By Monday half the category pages carried a noindex tag, and nobody had looked at staging first.

SEO and engineering don't talk

Your SEO person speaks in rankings, your engineers speak in story points. Requests bounce between them, and the work that matters never makes it into a sprint.

We write work your engineers can pick up, build and test, and we check it before it reaches production.

/ What's included

How our technical SEO agency works with your team.

Five parts of the day-to-day collaboration. Each exists because a recommendation only has value once it is live, and stays live.

Tickets with acceptance criteria

As a technical SEO agency, we don't hand over findings. We write tickets: the problem, the evidence, affected templates, the exact change and acceptance criteria your QA can test against. One issue per ticket, sized for a sprint.

Why it matters: a ticket a developer can estimate gets scheduled, while a vague recommendation waits for a quiet month that never comes.

What you get
  • Tickets in Jira, Linear, Asana or GitHub Issues, in your format
  • Acceptance criteria written as testable conditions
  • Screenshots, URLs and crawl evidence attached to each ticket
  • Effort and impact estimates so product can prioritise
  • Grouped by template, so one fix closes many URLs
  • Developer questions answered in the ticket thread
Shared channelYour developers ask us directly, with no account manager in between.
Change logEvery change we make or request, with date, reason and result.
Release checksStaging crawled before big releases, so regressions never reach Google.
Monthly summaryWhat shipped, what it changed, and what's next in the backlog.

/ How it works

Your first month with our team.

How we plug into your engineering workflow, from first access to the first verified fix in production.

1Days 1 to 3

Access and tooling

Search Console, analytics, your ticket tracker, a staging URL, and repository or theme access if you choose to grant it.

You get: us working inside your tools, not in a parallel system.

2Week 1

Meet your engineers

A call with your tech lead to learn the stack, the release cadence, your definition of done and anything that's off limits.

You get: SEO tickets written in the shape your team already uses.

3Week 2

First tickets in the backlog

The highest-impact issues written up with acceptance criteria, sized with your team and pulled into the next sprint.

You get: the first fixes live within two weeks of kickoff.

4Weeks 3 to 4

Release QA rhythm

We crawl staging before each relevant release, review the diff and recrawl production once it ships.

You get: a repeatable check that keeps every release safe for search.

/ Results

Shipped fixes, measurable growth.

Our technical specialists run the same playbook that produced these numbers across four ecommerce stores over 16 months. Technical fixes came first, with content and links built on top of them.

/ Is this for you?

A good match for teams like yours.

✓A great fit if you are

  • You have in-house or agency developers who need clear SEO requirements
  • You ship in sprints and want SEO work planned inside them
  • You run a JavaScript-heavy or custom stack where rendering needs real checks
  • You've had audits that never shipped and want someone who follows through
  • You want a senior person on the ticket not an account manager relaying messages

✕Probably not a fit if you

  • Want a one-off report to file away. Our SEO audit services may fit better
  • Have no way to deploy changes. We need a path to production, yours or ours
  • Need content or links, not fixes. See our SEO content services instead
  • Expect SEO to override every sprint. We prioritise alongside your product work

/ Before you sign

Questions to ask any technical SEO agency.

Ask these before you sign with anyone, us included. Each answer tells you whether an agency will change your production site or only describe what's wrong with it.

01

Can I see a ticket you wrote?

A good answer is a real, anonymised ticket with evidence, affected templates, the exact change and acceptance criteria. A slide of findings or a crawler export is a warning sign.

02

Who writes our tickets and checks fixes?

Listen for a named senior specialist who stays on your account. If the person in the pitch hands over to a junior after signing, your developers will notice within one sprint.

03

How do you test before a release?

Good agencies crawl staging, compare it with production and check rendered HTML on changed templates. 'We monitor rankings afterwards' means problems are found once Google has already seen them.

04

Will you work in our tools and process?

The right answer is yes: your tracker, your sprint cadence, your review rules. An agency that insists on its own portal adds a translation step your engineers will resent.

05

Can you implement, or only recommend?

Ask which platforms they edit directly and whether they open pull requests. Advice from people who never touch code often ignores how your stack actually works.

06

What happens when a fix causes a problem?

You want a clear answer: changes logged, a rollback plan agreed, and an agency that owns its mistakes. Silence here usually means it has never been thought through.

If an agency can't answer the first question with a real example, the rest rarely matters.

/ Your options

Audit agency, dev shop, or us?

Each option solves part of the problem. Here's the honest picture for teams that need fixes shipped.

SEO agency that audits Web development agency SEO freelancer Perfometrics
What you get A report and recommendations Code changes, SEO is secondary Advice, sometimes small fixes ✓Tickets, fixes and release checks
Talks to your developers Through an account manager Natively, but rarely about SEO Often directly ✓Directly, in your tools
Staging and release QA Rarely Functional QA, not SEO Depends on the person ✓Staging crawled before major releases
Depth of SEO knowledge Broad, often delivered by juniors Limited Varies widely ✓Senior technical specialists
When something breaks Picked up in the next report Queued behind feature work One person, limited hours ✓A team, with the founder reachable

/ Questions

Questions about working with our team.

What does a technical SEO agency do that a general SEO agency doesn't?
It works at the level of code, templates and releases rather than keywords and content. That means rendering checks, crawl control, redirects, structured data and release QA, delivered as work your developers can build. Our technical SEO services page lists the full scope.
How do I choose a technical SEO agency?
Ask to see a real ticket, ask who will write it, and ask how they test before a release. The answers show quickly whether you are hiring people who ship changes or people who send reports. The questions above work for comparing any agency, including us.
Who will actually work on our site?
A senior technical SEO specialist who leads your account from the first audit onward, with Andrej Zafirov, our founder, involved and reachable. No juniors, and no handover after the pitch. If a problem touches analytics or paid search, senior colleagues from across our SEO agency join the same channel.
Do you need access to our repository or CMS?
No, but it speeds things up. Without access, we write tickets and review your team's work on staging. With access, we can open pull requests, edit Shopify themes on a duplicate first, or change WordPress and Webflow directly. Nothing goes live without your team's approval.
Can you work alongside our external development agency?
Yes, and it's common. We write tickets for their backlog, join their planning when useful and review their staging builds. Clear acceptance criteria make the collaboration easy, because both sides agree up front what counts as done. We stay out of their commercial relationship with you.
Which platforms do your technical SEO specialists know?
Our technical SEO specialists work daily with Shopify, WordPress and Webflow, and regularly with React, Next.js, Vue and headless setups. For custom stacks, we learn your routing, rendering and deployment before writing a single ticket, so our requests fit how your system really works.
Is a technical SEO agency or a technical SEO consultant better for us?
If your developers have capacity and want guidance, a technical SEO consultant may be enough. If you need someone writing tickets and checking releases every sprint, the agency setup fits. For years of ongoing care, see our technical SEO company page.
How do we get started?
Send us your website for a free, written audit within 48 hours, or book a 30-minute call. We reply within one business day. If it's a fit, the first week is about access and meeting your tech lead, and the first technical fixes reach production within two weeks of kickoff.
