HOW TO USE
5
1. Work through each tab left to right: Technical, OnPage, Content, Backlinks, Local, CoreWebVitals, AIVisibility, Logs, Rendering.
6
2. Yellow cells are yours to fill: Status, Rating, Evidence, Recommendation, Priority, Owner, Due date.
7
3. The 'Where to find the data' column tells you exactly which tool and report answers each check.
8
4. Rate each check Pass, Warn or Fail. Set Priority with the Impact x Effort rule below.
9
5. Copy every Fail and Warn into the Schedule tab and assign owners and dates.
10
6. The Dashboard tab totals everything automatically. Health score = Pass / all rated checks.
11
7. See the SampleAudit tab for a filled-in example of what good looks like.
12
8. Losing traffic on an existing page? Start on the ContentDecay tab, not Technical. Diagnose the decline type first: impressions rising while clicks fall is NOT a page problem, so do not rewrite it.
13
9. Fill QueryOpportunities from GSC before you rewrite anything. Queries where you have impressions and zero clicks tell you exactly which headings to add.
14
10. Work PositionBands before commissioning new content. Positions 2 to 15 move in weeks. New pages take months.

16
PRIORITY RULE (Impact x Effort)
17
P1 Critical: high ranking/revenue impact, any effort. Blockers like noindex on money pages, site not crawlable.
18
P2 High: high impact, higher effort, or medium impact with low effort. Title rewrites, CWV template fixes.
19
P3 Medium: helps but will not move rankings alone. Alt text passes, minor duplicates.
20
P4 Low: polish. Do after everything above.
