Frequently Asked Questions
What actually IS technical SEO?
It's the behind-the-scenes infrastructure that makes or breaks your rankings. Page speed, crawlability, mobile performance, Core Web Vitals - all the technical stuff search engines care about. Think of it like a house: content is the furniture, but technical SEO is the foundation. Without it, everything collapses.
Why do Wix sites need specialised technical SEO?
Because Wix works differently than WordPress or custom sites. JavaScript rendering, platform-specific URL structures, unique limitations - generic SEO advice doesn't work. I've spent 14 years mastering Wix's quirks. I know every hidden lever.
What are Core Web Vitals and why should I care?
Google's official ranking signals. Three metrics: loading speed (LCP), interactivity (FID), and visual stability (CLS). Pass all three = ranking boost. Fail them = buried in search results. Most Wix sites fail. I optimise them to pass.
How fast will I see results from technical fixes?
Speed improvements are instant - users feel it immediately. Ranking improvements take 4-12 weeks as Google re-crawls and re-evaluates your site. But here's the thing: technical SEO is the foundation. Fix it once, benefit forever.
Will you break my site during optimisation?
No. I've optimised 794+ Wix sites without a single disaster. I test everything, make backups, implement changes carefully. Your site stays live and functional throughout the entire process. Zero downtime.
Is this a one-time fix or ongoing maintenance?
Both. Initial optimisation fixes everything wrong NOW. Monthly monitoring catches new issues BEFORE they hurt rankings. Most clients do the big fix first, then light monthly maintenance. I'll tell you exactly what you need - not what makes me the most money.
My Wix site is slow because of apps and a heavy template. Can you fix that?
This is one of the most common Wix performance problems. Heavy templates loaded with third-party apps, large uncompressed images, and animations can seriously drag down your Core Web Vitals scores. I audit every app and element on your site, remove what's unnecessary, optimise what stays, compress images properly, and configure lazy loading and font subsetting. In most cases, I can dramatically improve load times without changing how your site looks or functions.
