What and why is SEO audit? And Check List Guideline

What is an SEO Audit?

I have given two examples to understand about the SEO Audit. First example: generally, why do we go to the MBBS doctor? Because, to understand the type of disease and what should we do for curing the disease? And the second example is: if you do not change the mobil oil on your bike or car, then it effects on the engine of your bike or car.

Do you know what is SEO audit and why SEO audit is so important?

From two examples, we understand it clearly that what is actually SEO audit? Next, I just tell you that SEO audit is very important for your old Website and new Website. Your old site is performing well and you do not audit because you think that I have performed well. But, I know that Google gives two types of penalty:

1. Manual Penalty
2. Animal Penalty (Panda, Penguin, Hummingbird).

Anybody does not say that when gives the Manual Penalty? But, in every update, so many Websites get a penalty. Someone due to, content, someone due to aggressive link building. The maintainer of the site can take a strategy by auditing. You may know the previous result that is your investment going to the right way or not?

Why is it so important? 

If I tell you that its importance is that level from which level an MBBS doctor checks the disease of victims and solve it. So, for you, it is important to keep your engine right. If you want to go your business in upward level, then it is very important to do SEO audit.
