Services Provided

SafariRank offers a comprehensive suite of technical SEO services designed to boost your website's visibility, performance, and growth. Our expert team takes care of every technical detail, so your business can thrive online.

Technical SEO Audit

Our technical SEO audit is a thorough review of your website's infrastructure. We identify issues that may be holding your site back, such as slow page speed, broken links, crawl errors, and indexability problems.

Crawling, Indexing & Site Structure

A well-structured website is easy for both search engines and users to navigate. We optimize your XML sitemaps, robots.txt files, and internal linking, ensuring Google and other search engines can find and prioritize your most valuable content.

Website Speed & Core Web Vitals

Website speed is a crucial ranking factor. We analyze your site's loading times and Core Web Vitals, then optimize images, code, and server configurations to reduce delays. With a faster site, your visitors stay longer, bounce rates drop, and your SEO rankings climb.

Mobile-Friendliness

With most searches now happening on mobile devices, your website must be fully responsive. We ensure your site adapts perfectly to any screen size, offering a seamless, engaging user experience on smartphones and tablets.

Website Security (HTTPS & SSL)

Website security is essential for both user trust and SEO. We migrate your site to HTTPS, set up SSL certificates, and ensure data is encrypted. Google prioritizes secure websites in its rankings, so this step not only protects your business but also boosts your online visibility.

Structured Data & Schema Markup

We implement structured data and schema markup on your web pages to help search engines understand your content. This makes your site eligible for rich results and enhanced listings in search results—driving higher click-through rates and more qualified traffic.

Metadata Optimization

Effective meta titles, descriptions, and Open Graph tags are key to strong search and social visibility. We craft compelling metadata for every page, increasing your chances of being noticed in search results and improving click-through rates.

Canonicalization & Duplicate Content

Duplicate content can dilute your SEO efforts. We address duplicate pages and implement canonical tags to ensure search engines recognize your preferred URLs. This consolidates link equity and helps maintain strong, focused rankings.

Crawl Error & Broken Link Fixes

Crawl errors and broken links can hurt your rankings and user trust. We identify and fix 404 errors, redirect outdated pages, and repair broken links across your site, ensuring smooth navigation for users and better crawlability for search engines.

Image Optimization

Images play a big role in site speed and accessibility. We compress large files, add descriptive alt text, and use modern image formats like WebP. These improvements reduce load times and make your content accessible to all users.

XML Sitemaps & Robots.txt

Clear communication with search engines is vital. We build and optimize XML sitemaps and robots.txt files, guiding search engines to your most important content while blocking low-value or duplicate pages from being indexed.

International SEO

For businesses targeting multiple countries or languages, we implement hreflang tags and geo-targeting best practices. This ensures your content appears for the right users in each market, boosting your global visibility and search performance.

Server-Side Rendering (SSR) & Static Site Generation (SSG)

Modern web frameworks can greatly improve SEO when used correctly. We leverage server-side rendering (SSR) and static site generation (SSG) to create lightning-fast, crawlable websites. These techniques help search engines access your content quickly and reliably, leading to higher rankings and a superior user experience.
