content audit services.

When was the last time you properly reviewed the content on your website? Search behaviour and how people find information have changed rapidly.
Talk to us about your content

Your website already contains a significant investment in content. And the way people search and interact with online content keeps shifting, making it increasingly difficult to see what content is still helping performance and what is starting to hold it back.

Our content audit services, part of our content marketing suite give you a clear view of the content you already have and what to do with it next, taking current search behaviour and AI-driven discovery into account. We assess individual pages against their purpose, audience and organic performance, then turn the findings into prioritised recommendations your team can actually use.

The result is a clearer content estate and a more defensible plan for where you invest your marketing budget next.

01

what is a website content audit?

A content audit is a structured review of the content across your website. It looks at what exists, how well individual pages are doing their job and where changes could improve performance.

A useful website content audit goes further than checking just whether the writing sounds good. It considers why each important page exists and whether it is meeting that purpose.

A service page may need to generate qualified enquiries. An informational article might be responsible for introducing new users to your brand. Other pages may support organic visibility or help customers move towards a decision.

We assess the content within that wider context.

You come away knowing what is worth improving, which content can stay as it is and where a bigger gap needs addressing.

how does a content audit support SEO and other marketing channels?

Content rarely belongs to one channel.

A strong commercial page can support SEO while giving PPC ads a more useful landing destination. Research-led articles can give Organic Social something substantive to distribute. Expert content may also provide useful material for Digital PR activity.

That is why our content auditing services look beyond the wording sitting on an individual URL. We consider how the content fits into the broader customer journey and where other channels depend on it.

If Paid Media is driving qualified users towards a weak page, improving the campaign alone leaves part of the problem untouched. If SEO is creating visibility for a page that fails to communicate the value of the service, rankings only solve part of the commercial challenge.

The audit helps identify those disconnects so subsequent work can be prioritised properly.

what happens after a content audit?

An audit should lead somewhere useful.

Our recommendations explain what we found and what we believe should happen next. That may involve updating an existing page, consolidating competing content or creating something that is currently missing.

We prioritise the work so your team can see where the greatest opportunities sit rather than receiving a large spreadsheet with no clear order of action.

Some businesses use the audit as the starting point for an ongoing content programme. Others take the findings in-house and manage implementation themselves.

Where the audit points towards a broader marketing problem, we can use those findings to inform a Discovery Consultation and assess how content should work alongside the rest of your digital strategy.

how our content audit process works for you.

We always start with the reason for the website content audit.

A business looking to improve lead quality needs different answers from one reviewing years of blog content. We agree the commercial questions first, then shape the analysis around the pages and evidence most likely to answer them.

Our content audit process combines editorial judgement with organic performance data. The final recommendations are prioritised around the changes that have a credible reason to improve performance.

why choose Bamboo Nine as your content audit agency?

Content decisions become much easier when you can see what the rest of your marketing needs from your website.

A content audit can easily become an inventory exercise. Knowing that a website contains 300 pages tells you very little about which ones deserve your next pound of marketing budget.

Our Organic team approaches auditing through the commercial role content is expected to play.

We combine content expertise with insight from SEO and the wider Bamboo Nine team, giving us a broader view of how individual pages contribute to acquisition and conversion.

You get recommendations shaped around your actual website and objectives, with clear reasoning behind the work we think should happen next.

Our multidisciplinary content support includes:

Content audits and SEO

Organic performance data from our SEO team helps show which existing pages have room to grow and where competing content may be limiting visibility.

Content audits and Paid Media

Reviewing landing-page content can reveal where the experience after the click is weakening otherwise effective PPC acquisition activity.

Content audits and Organic Social

An audit can uncover useful existing material that can be repurposed or developed into stronger organic social content.

Content audits and Digital PR

Expertise already sitting across your website can reveal subjects where the business has credible authority worth developing further with PR.

Content audits and data

Performance data helps distinguish an editorial preference from a problem that is genuinely affecting user behaviour or organic results.

Content audits and creative

Some pages need a clearer way to communicate information visually, giving creative teams a more useful brief for future assets.

get more from content you already have.

Producing another page is easy. Knowing whether it deserves to exist takes a little more work.

A content audit gives you an evidence-based starting point for improving the website you already have.

We’ll show you where current content is doing its job, where there is a credible opportunity to improve it and which gaps deserve new investment.

If the problems extend beyond content, we’ll tell you that too. A wider Discovery Consultation can then establish where content sits within the broader marketing priorities of the business.

frequently asked questions.

Question:

What is the difference between a content marketing audit and a content strategy audit?

A content marketing audit focuses on the assets you already have and how effectively they are performing. A content strategy audit takes a wider view of the plan behind that activity, including what you are producing and how it supports business objectives. Depending on the brief, our work can cover both.

Question:

Do you offer an SEO content audit service?

Yes. An SEO content audit service looks specifically at how website content contributes to organic search performance. We can analyse current visibility and opportunities for existing pages, with our SEO specialists contributing where deeper technical or search analysis is needed.

Question:

Can you carry out a B2B content audit?

Yes. A B2B content audit often requires closer attention to longer buying cycles and the information decision-makers need before becoming a lead. We review content in the context of that journey so recommendations reflect how the business actually wins work.

Question:

Can you audit our blog separately from the rest of the website?

Yes. A blog content audit can be carried out as a focused project when a business has accumulated a large archive and wants to understand which articles remain useful. We can identify pages with further potential and areas where existing coverage has become less relevant to the wider strategy.

Question:

How often should a site content audit be carried out?

There is no fixed timetable. Websites publishing frequently will usually benefit from reviewing their content more often than relatively static sites. A major change in services or strategy can also be a sensible point to audit the site before producing more material.

Question:

Do you provide bespoke content audits?

Yes. Our bespoke content audits are scoped around the questions you need answered and the size of the website involved. You may need a complete review or a narrower audit focused on commercially important sections.

Question:

Do I need a content audit consultant or an ongoing content agency?

That depends on what you already have internally. A standalone content audit service works well when your team can implement the recommendations itself. If you need support afterwards, Bamboo Nine can provide ongoing content strategy and production through our Organic team.
