Growth engines for ambitious companies
YOUR GROWTH PARTNER.WE BUILD AUTHORITY ENGINES.
What we look at
TEN DIMENSIONS.
NO GUESSWORK.
01BRAND
Is it obvious what you do, who for, and why you and not them?
02HUMAN
Are there real, named people on the site, or just a logo and a form?
03EXPERIENCE
Is it fast, accessible and usable on the phone people actually hold?
04TRUST
Would a stranger believe you before they meet you?
05ATTENTION
Are you publishing anything people can follow, subscribe to or share?
06DISCOVERABILITY
Can search engines and AI find, read and cite what you sell?
07CONVERSION
Does a visit turn into a conversation, or a bounce?
08AUTHORITY
Does anyone outside your own website vouch for you?
09INTELLIGENCE
Is anything automated, self-serve or AI-assisted, or is every step a human?
10FUTURE
Is the machine underneath ready for what you're building next?
What lands in your report
YOUR SCORE.
YOUR FIVE FIXES.
Your Growth Engine Score
One number out of 100, and the ceiling your current setup can reach even if everything else goes right.
Ten dimensions, scored
Every dimension with its own number, so you can see whether the problem is being found, being trusted, or being able to buy.
Every check we ran
What we looked for, what we actually saw on your site, and what it costs you. No black box, no grade without evidence.
Four leaks
Where attention, time, money and energy escape, with the specific behaviour causing each one.
Five fixes, in order
The five that move the number most, ranked, with enough detail that your existing web person could start Monday.
The car
Your score becomes one of twenty cars. It is the fastest way to feel a number, and it is the part people forward to their team.
Eight things most audits skip. ↓
- Metadata uniqueness
Duplicate titles, duplicate descriptions, repeated H1s and near-identical pages, counted across everything we reach.
- Sitemap completeness
Whether the pages we can crawl are the pages you declare, and whether anything listed is redirecting, blocked or noindexed.
- Internal link health
Orphan pages nothing links to, pages with a single incoming link, and links pointing at addresses your own robots file blocks.
- Heading structure
One H1 per page at a usable length, a real H2, and no skipped levels, because headings are how machines read a page.
- Schema coverage
Whether each page type carries the structured data it should, and only the markup that is actually true on the page.
- AI crawler access
Whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, PerplexityBot and the rest are allowed. Blocking them removes you from AI answers silently.
- Image library
Missing alt text, formats that predate WebP, and the files heavy enough to make a phone visitor wait.
- Security policy
Whether a Content-Security-Policy is present at all, and whether it is enforced or only reporting.
When something is too large to read in one pass, we say so and report it instead of scoring it. A number we cannot stand behind is worse than no number.
01 / THE FOUR LEAKS
Attention
Are the right people paying attention?
Where it hides ↓
- Founder invisible on the site
- No blog, podcast or newsletter
- Last post older than a year
- AI can't cite you
- Positioning reads like everyone else
- No press, no reviews, no third-party proof
- Social links dead or missing
02 / THE FOUR LEAKS
Time
What are your best people doing that they should never have to do again?
Where it hides ↓
- Every lead answered by hand
- No booking link, only 'we'll get back to you'
- No client portal
- Forms that ask for everything
- No chat or AI concierge
- Reporting assembled manually
- Same questions answered daily
03 / THE FOUR LEAKS
Money
Where are you already paying for value you're failing to capture?
Where it hides ↓
- Traffic arrives, no capture
- One CTA buried below the fold
- No testimonials or client proof near the ask
- Slow pages losing mobile visitors
- No follow-up sequence
- Contact page is the only conversion path
04 / THE FOUR LEAKS
Energy
What makes your company harder to run than it needs to be?
Where it hides ↓
- Tool sprawl, nothing connected
- Three analytics tags, no dashboard
- Inconsistent titles, metas and schema
- Broken redirects and orphan pages
- Accessibility failures waiting to become complaints
- No roadmap language, no AI-native features
- Technical debt in the foundation
