Run technical SEO audits with Claude — crawlability, indexation, Core Web Vitals, schema, and canonical issues in one workflow.
Why technical SEO matters
Technical SEO with Claude matters because content alone does not rank if search engines cannot crawl, render, and understand your pages. A technical audit catches the blockers — broken redirects, missing canonicals, invalid schema, slow pages — that prevent good content from performing.
Claude runs these checks as a structured workflow, producing a prioritized remediation list instead of a raw report. The skill knows which issues actually impact rankings and which are noise, so you fix what matters first.
Crawlability and indexation
The first check is whether search engines can reach your pages. The skill reviews robots.txt, checks for pages blocked by meta robots, validates sitemap coverage, and flags orphaned pages that no internal link points to.
Indexation issues are silent killers — a page can be published, live, and completely unindexed because of a stray noindex tag or a canonical pointing the wrong way. The skill catches these systematically.
Core Web Vitals
The skill checks the three Core Web Vitals: Largest Contentful Paint, Cumulative Layout Shift, and Interaction to Next Paint. For each failing metric, it identifies the likely cause — render-blocking scripts, large images, layout shifts — and recommends a fix.
Performance is a confirmed ranking factor. A technical seo with claude skill turns vague “make it faster” advice into specific, actionable fixes tied to each metric.
Structured data validation
Structured data helps search engines understand your content and earn rich results. The skill validates your JSON-LD against schema.org, flags missing required properties, and checks for type mismatches that invalidate markup.
Invalid structured data is worse than none — it can trigger manual actions. The skill ensures your markup is both valid and meaningful.
Canonical tag issues
Canonical tags tell search engines which version of a page to index. The skill checks that every canonical is self-referencing (no page should canonicalize to the homepage unless it IS the homepage), consistent across HTTP/HTTPS, and free of chains.
