You question sounds vague but I’d say one best approach is not always start with an audit .


Tools like screaming frog are exceptionally and you give insight on what’s needed to be worked on .

- make the site mobile friendly and fast (all of the pages should have at least 90 speed scores and should load completely in under 2 seconds, although preferably in under 1 second)

- fix all broken links, 404 pages, and bad / wrong / looping redirects (if you have a big site with 1000s of pages auditing tools like Screaming Frog can help you find the technical issues quickly)

- keep your site (both the UI and the source code) clean and safe (use Security plugins, SSL certificates, etc.)
- make your site clean, fast, user friendly and easy to navigate using breadcrumbs, tags (where appropriate), topical silos, etc...
- use retarded tools that google wants, such as schemas (I never understood schemas, but apparently they're important so use that crap)
- create and submit XML sitemaps to GSC to help the googlebot better crawl and index your site

To stay ahead in SEO, focus on regular site audits, quality content, high-authority backlinks, fast load speeds, and mobile optimization. Stay updated with algorithm changes through trusted SEO resources.

For any site, focus on making it load fast and be easily navigable for visitors. Make sure search engines can properly discover all your important pages. Also, secure your site and ensure it works flawlessly on mobile devices. Good user experience is key.
