Shopify store audit

A Shopify audit that ends in a ranked fix list

For merchants whose store is slower, ranks lower or converts worse than it should, and who want to know why before paying for a fix. We read the theme code, the app stack, the product and checkout pages and the SEO setup, and hand you a prioritised list of what to change and why.

Happy clients

The audit is a fixed price for a written scope, and it starts within three to five business days. An engineer and our designer go through the store together, then write up every finding with a severity, the page it affects, and the change we would make. We walk you through the report on a call, where you can push back on the order.

The fix list is written so your own developer could act on it without a call to us. If you would rather we did the work, the same people who ran the audit quote it as a fixed-price scope.

01What is included

What the audit checks

  1. 01Core Web Vitals and speedWe measure LCP, INP and CLS on the home, collection and product templates over a phone connection, then trace each slow number back to the image, script or app causing it.
  2. 02Theme codeA read through the Liquid, JavaScript and CSS for render-blocking scripts, duplicated libraries, sections that load on every page, and code left behind by past developers.
  3. 03App bloatEvery installed app is listed with what it injects into the storefront and whether anything still uses it. Apps that add scripts to every page for a feature on one are flagged for removal or replacement.
  4. 04Product page and checkoutThe order of price, variants, images, reviews and add-to-cart on the product page, the cart drawer, and each checkout step, checked on a phone for anything that makes a shopper hesitate.
  5. 05Structured data and SEOProduct, breadcrumb and organisation schema validated, plus titles, headings, canonical tags, the sitemap and the redirect map. Broken links and old URLs that 404 go on the list with the page that links to them.
  6. 06A ranked fix listEvery finding gets a severity, the page it affects and the exact change we would make, ordered by expected impact against effort. You can hand the list to any Shopify developer.
03How a project runs

Four steps, and you can see every one of them

  1. 01A 30-minute callWe look through your store before the call and come with questions about what is slowing it down, so the time goes on your store and not on a pitch.
  2. 02A written scope with a fixed priceWhat we will build, what it costs and when it starts, on one page. Most projects start within 3–5 business days of you saying yes.
  3. 03Build in the openA shared Slack channel, a staging store you can click through at any point, an update at least every 48 hours and a call every week.
  4. 04Launch, then stay closeWe launch, watch the first weeks of data and fix what the data says to fix. Most clients keep us on for the next thing.
