Google and search
Run a site check and fix what it finds
Open the site check, read what it flags and fix the items one at a time, starting with the most important.
The site check looks over your site's search settings and lists what could be better. It's a quick way to spot things like a photo without a description or a link that goes nowhere. We can't promise rankings, traffic, calls or sales, but fixing what it flags helps Google understand your pages.
Steps
- Log in to your site editor.
- In the side panel, click SEO/AEO. The site check opens on a page called Site Audit.
- Read the list. Each item has a status:
- High Priority (red): fix these first.
- Medium Priority (orange or yellow): fix when you have time.
- Optimized (green): nothing to do.
- Notice (grey): a suggestion, not a must. You'd see one if you have no blog, for example.
- Click View Details or Fix it on an item. It takes you to the right screen, such as the list of photo descriptions.
- Make the fix, then go back to the list.
- Publish. If you don't see a Publish button, tell us and we'll publish it for you.
Blog items
The check also flags the blog: no blog yet, no posts, posts older than 3 months, or nothing published lately. On those items, Fix It may add a blog or start an AI-written post. Please don't use it. If your plan includes posts, send us the topic and the facts instead. See How your site posts work.
Tips
- Start with red. Fix one item at a time.
- A Notice isn't a problem. Skip it if it doesn't fit your business.
- For help with common fixes, see Set a page's search title and description, Write alt text in plain words and Find and fix broken links.
- Run it again after big edits, such as a new page or a new batch of photos.
- Not sure what an item means? Send us a screenshot and we'll tell you.
- We also check your pages, forms and links every month and send a short note.
