WordPress Website Audit
A clear check of your website's health, usability and performance
DRA Digital offers a $149 WordPress website audit for Australian small businesses. The audit covers WordPress health, basic security, website speed, mobile usability and basic SEO across up to 10 key public pages. Customers receive a written report with recommendations, normally within 2 business days after the required access and information are provided.
Your website doesn't need to be broken to benefit from a check-up. An audit can identify problems, highlight opportunities or confirm that things are working well.

How does the website audit work?
Purchase
Review the product details and complete secure checkout. We'll ask for your website details and any concerns.
Provide access
Create a separate temporary WordPress administrator account for the review. We'll explain how to provide access securely.
We review
We assess your website and prepare findings and recommendations.
Get your report
Your report is normally emailed within 2 business days after we've received everything needed to complete the review.
Access is used for the agreed audit. You can remove the temporary account once the review is complete. Please don't send your existing administrator password through an ordinary email.
We check our own websites too
We regularly review our own WordPress websites, test improvements and monitor results. That hands-on experience helps us identify worthwhile changes rather than recommending work a website doesn't need.
What if your website needs more help?
An audit helps you understand your options. If you need ongoing care, a particular fix or a larger redesign, DRA Digital offers those services separately.
WordPress Website Audit FAQs
How often should I have my website audited?
There's no fixed schedule that suits every website. A review can be useful after a major redesign, when performance or usability changes, or if your WordPress website hasn't been checked properly for some time. Websites with frequent updates or changes may benefit from more regular reviews.
What if there's nothing wrong with my website?
That's a useful result too. An audit isn't about finding problems that don't exist. We'll identify what's working well, explain anything worth keeping an eye on and suggest improvements only where they're relevant.
Do you need access to my WordPress website?
Yes, for the full audit we'll generally need temporary WordPress administrator access to review settings, updates, plugins and Site Health information that aren't visible to public visitors. We recommend creating a separate temporary account rather than sharing your existing login.
How many pages are included?
The standard $149 audit includes a review of up to 10 key public pages, along with relevant WordPress settings and website-wide checks. If you have a larger website or need a more detailed review, contact us to discuss the scope.
Can you audit a website you didn't build?
Yes. You don't need to be an existing DRA Digital customer. We can review WordPress websites built by other designers or developers, provided you have the necessary authority to arrange access.
Is this a full technical SEO or security audit?
No. This is a WordPress website health and usability audit. It includes basic SEO and security checks, but it isn't a penetration test, a comprehensive cybersecurity assessment or an in-depth technical SEO consultancy project.
Will you make the recommended changes?
The $149 price covers the review and written report, not the work required to implement recommendations. You can make the changes yourself, use your existing developer or ask DRA Digital for a separate quote.
How quickly will I receive the report?
Reports are normally emailed within 2 business days once we've received the required website details and access. If your website is more complex or additional information is needed, we'll let you know.
Can I ask questions about the findings?
Yes. If something in your report isn't clear, you can contact us for clarification. If you need hands-on assistance or additional work beyond the audit, we can discuss that separately.
