WordPress sites vary wildly in complexity. Match your setup to the right audit.

IF →

You have a simple blog or brochure site (under 100 pages, no ecommerce)

Basic WordPress Audit (Starter plan)

IF →

You run WooCommerce or a membership plugin alongside WordPress

WordPress + Ecommerce/Membership Audit

IF →

You run WordPress Multisite or manage 5+ WordPress sites

Multi-Site WordPress Audit (Agency plan)

Each site in a multisite network can have independent SEO issues. CrawlRaven crawls each subsite separately and generates per-site reports for your team.

Your site is slow and you suspect plugin bloat

WordPress Performance Audit (CWV focus)

Start with CrawlRaven's Core Web Vitals analysis to identify which plugins add render-blocking JS. Then audit your theme, caching, and image optimization pipeline.
