upriseUP conducted a full technical audit of the site, immediately finding a number of ‘quick wins’. These included implementing page speed recommendations, optimising meta content, resolving duplicate page titles, duplicate meta descriptions and missing meta descriptions.
Further to ongoing technical checks, a number of larger issues were also found in the audit, which made up the basis of the ongoing SEO strategy. Work to fix these issues included optimising or creating new meta content across the site and improvements to WCRF UK’s backlink profile.
