SEO Foundation Sprint

The four-week SEO base every site should have shipped two years ago.Technical SEO done right. Site speed in the 90s, Core Web Vitals green, schema markup that earns rich results, sitemap discipline, internal linking that compounds, and a content brief framework you can run yourself. No "we will write 200 articles" — just the foundation that makes every future article rank.

Where this fits in the services matrix.

Every service page now names the buyer state, the commercial shape, and the next route. That keeps the catalog navigable instead of feeling like disconnected offers.

The offer is a route, not a loose task list.

This diagram gives every service page a concrete operating model: intake, system design, implementation, proof, and handoff.

SEO Foundation Sprint moves from fit check to scoped work, then into build/proof/handoff so the buyer can understand how the engagement actually runs.

01// what you walk away with

The outcome, not just the output.

  • 01Core Web Vitals green across templates
  • 02Schema markup earning rich results in Search Console
  • 03Crawl-budget cleanup (no junk URLs in the index)
  • 04Internal linking architecture that compounds
  • 05Content brief framework you can hand to a writer
02// scope

Concrete artifacts you keep — and what we leave out.

Working code, written docs, dashboards your team owns. We also list what this engagement deliberately does not cover, so scope is honest before you click.

// deliverables
  • Technical audit (rendering, indexability, redirects, canonicals)
  • Core Web Vitals fix sprint (LCP / INP / CLS)
  • Schema markup library (Article, FAQ, HowTo, Product, BreadcrumbList)
  • Sitemap + robots.txt + canonical strategy
  • Internal linking map with priority pages
  • Search Console + GA4 + Looker Studio dashboard
  • Content brief template + 5 example briefs for your top topics
// not included
  • Content writing (this is foundation; writing is on you or a separate retainer)
  • Off-page SEO / link building (we have ethical opinions; not in this scope)
  • Local SEO (Google Business Profile etc.)

04// questions

Common questions.

01How long until rankings move?
Honest answer: 8–16 weeks for indexed pages to re-rank, longer for new ones. Foundation work compounds — the value shows up in months 3–6.
02Will you write content?
No. We deliver the brief framework + 5 examples. Writing is a separate engagement (Content Care Plus) or you hand off to your team.
03What about programmatic SEO?
Add-on or follow-on engagement. Foundation has to be solid first or programmatic just amplifies whatever is broken.
