What our website audit for schools includes

Comprehensive website analysis

We run an in-depth scan of your school’s website to find the areas that need improvement.

Think of it as quality assurance for your school website: a page-by-page check that busy teams rarely have time to do by hand.

School website content audit

On a large website, keeping track of every page by hand is hard. We catalog every page and flag problems page by page, including:

  • Spelling
  • Grammar
  • Broken links
  • Readability

SEO and search visibility

We compare how visible your school is on Google with other schools in your area, and suggest ways to improve your search rankings:

  • Search rankings
  • SEO fundamentals
  • Backlinks from other sites

User experience and mobile usability

We check that your pages load quickly, work on mobile devices, are easy to read and function correctly:

  • Mobile usability issues
  • Site download speed
  • Best practices
  • Important issues

Site issues and technical information

We report on the overall structure and reach of your site, including:

  • Page-by-page issues
  • Popularity
  • Technologies used

Signs your school website needs a checkup

A WebScan™ is most useful when you suspect your website is holding enrollment back but can’t pinpoint why.

For a quick self-check first, read 5 signs your school needs a website update and our essential tips for school websites.

  • Inquiries have slowed, and you want to know whether your website is part of the reason.

  • You’re planning a redesign, and need a clear list of what to keep, fix or remove.

  • Your site has grown over the years, with old pages, broken links and outdated content piling up. Our guide to cleaning up website cruft to rank higher in Google explains why that matters.

  • Other schools outrank you on Google, and you want to see where the gap is.

A personal review of your audit results

After the audit, we walk you through the findings in a one-on-one session, in plain, non-technical language.

You leave with practical next steps for fixing issues and making the most of the opportunities we find.

If you want help with the fixes, our team can take them on through SEO services for schools or school website design and development. There’s no obligation to work with us.

Questions about the WebScan™ audit

Something else on your mind? Call us at (949) 276-6063.

Is the WebScan™ school website audit really free?

Yes. WebScan™ is a donation-based service: each month we donate a free analysis and consultation to four schools. There’s no obligation and no further commitment required. You apply, we run the audit, and we walk you through the findings whether or not you decide to work with us afterward.

What does an SEO audit for schools check?

The WebScan™ covers four areas. Content quality: spelling, grammar, broken links and readability, page by page. SEO: your search rankings compared with other schools in your area, SEO fundamentals and backlinks. User experience: mobile usability, site speed and best practices. Site information: page-by-page issues, popularity and the technologies your site uses.

What happens after I apply for a WebScan™?

Apply through the consultation form or call (949) 276-6063. Once your request is in, we run the scan and you’ll hear from us within the next couple of days to book a time to review it. In that one-on-one session we explain the findings in plain, non-technical language and give you practical next steps.

Do we have to hire Kreative Webworks to fix the issues?

No. You can use the findings to guide your own team or your current web provider. If you’d like help, we can take on the work through our SEO and website design services, and, if you also need an ADA review, our website accessibility services. The audit itself carries no obligation.
