How spareday helps
Check what the site actually outputs.
WordPress SEO means checking what your site really shows search engines, fixing what conflicts, and building the pages people search for.
WordPress sites often gather a theme, a page builder, an SEO plugin and a caching plugin over the years, each with its own settings. spareday checks what the site outputs as well as what the settings say, then fixes the structure and the pages. Based in Newcastle, spareday works with businesses across Australia.
What to check
Common WordPress issues.
The common problems come from tools added at different times by different people.
- Two plugins writing the same tags
- Titles or structured data written twice, differently.
- Indexing settings left wrong
- Often after a rebuild or a theme change.
- Heavy pages
- Page builder scripts and oversized images on every page.
- Thin archive pages
- Tag and category pages nobody meant to publish.
How it works
Output first, then pages.
An SEO plugin’s checks confirm that fields are filled in. The work also checks the pages themselves.
- Check the real output
- Titles, indexing, sitemap and structured data, as Google sees them.
- Settle the conflicts
- One plugin responsible for each job.
- Speed up heavy pages
- Images resized and unused scripts removed where possible.
- One page per service
- So each service can be found on its own.
- Look at what is there
- Your site, your Google profile and what people search.
- Agree the scope
- What will be done first, and why.
- Do the work
- Written, fixed and checked on a real phone.
- Check and report
- What changed, in plain words.
Before you decide
Be clear about what can be promised.
Nobody controls Google’s results, so we do not promise a position or a number of enquiries. Plugins and themes behave differently, so we check yours rather than assume.
You own the pages and website we build, in your business's name. Ongoing work is agreed in the scope.

A few practical details
Before we get started.
Is our SEO plugin enough?
It outputs the tags you fill in and builds a sitemap. It does not write the pages or decide what they should say.
Should we stop using a page builder?
Not necessarily. It lets you edit your own site. The aim is to reduce what it adds to each page.
Do tag pages matter?
Tag pages with one or two posts are usually thin. Many sites hide them from search.
