When doing an SEO Audit I run through a set of pre-defined questions. Over the past months, I have curated an Excel template to conduct an SEO audit. I use it as a checklist to document my findings and it is the basis to cluster my optimization ideas.
The template has columns for observations, tasks, and an estimated ranking impact. Ready to fill out for your client. See below:

The template has the following sections:
- Tech SEO
- On-page SEO
- Off-page SEO
