Shopify store health audit
A Shopify Store Audit That Tells You What to Fix First
A Shopify store audit should end with a list you can act on, not a score. We read your store the way a shopper and a search engine do, check speed, apps, checkout, tracking and mobile, and rank every finding by what it costs you. From $490, fixed price.
- Speed, apps, SEO basics, checkout and tracking reviewed
- Read on real phones as well as by tools
- Every finding ranked by cost to you
- A written, prioritised fix list you can hand to anyone
Our track record
450+ Shopify Stores Launched Since 2015. Your Audit Gets the Same Care.
Automated audit tools give a score and a long list of warnings, most of which do not matter. A human reading the store finds the few that do. We combine tools with reading, then rank what we find by what it costs you.

Who this is for
Who Needs a Comprehensive Shopify Store Health Audit
Owners usually order an audit when something feels off but the cause is unclear. These are the six situations behind most comprehensive Shopify store health audit requests.
You are a good fit if
- You want an independent view of your store
- You want a fixed price and written scope for a health audit
- You will own the report and next steps
- You can give us collaborator access
Stores whose sales stalled
Traffic is steady and orders are not. An audit finds friction you have stopped seeing.
Owners with a slow store
Pages feel heavy and nobody knows why. We find which apps, images and scripts add the most.
Brands that care about search
Titles, headings, redirects and structure often decay. We check the basics and fix list priorities.
Stores taking over from another agency
You inherited a store and want to know its real condition before you invest.
Merchants who suspect bad tracking
Reports look wrong and ad decisions rest on them. We check events and pixels.
Founders before a big campaign
A sale or launch is coming. An audit finds the leaks before you pour traffic in.
Problems solved
Why Stores Drift Without Anyone Noticing
Stores decay quietly. These six patterns are what an audit usually finds.
Apps and images add weight.
Outcome: Each app and each uncompressed image adds load time, and nobody measures the total.
SEO basics decay.
Outcome: Titles, headings and redirects drift as products and collections change.
Checkout has hidden friction.
Outcome: A missing payment method, an unclear shipping message or an unexpected field loses buyers.
Tracking breaks quietly.
Outcome: A theme change or removed app can break pixels, and reports stay plausible but wrong.
Mobile is neglected.
Outcome: Most visits are on phones, but the store is reviewed on a laptop.
Theme code is messy.
Outcome: Years of edits leave errors, leftover app code and duplicated scripts.
What we can do
What Our Comprehensive Shopify Store Health Audit Covers
Six areas make up the audit. Your package decides how many pages, apps and markets are covered.

SEO basics
We review titles, descriptions, headings, URLs, redirects and structure on key templates and sampled pages.
Checkout and conversion friction
We walk the buying path as a shopper on phone and desktop and list every point of friction.
Tracking accuracy
We compare Shopify analytics, GA4 and ad pixels with test orders and note any that disagree.
Theme and app health
We look for errors, leftover app code, duplicated scripts and risky customisations.
Prioritised fix list
Every finding is ranked by what it likely costs you and what it costs to fix, with a short walkthrough call.
