The Problem

Challenges Faced

Buddypaint’s website had solid foundations but was held back by technical issues that limited full search engine potential, crawl efficiency, and overall performance.

Technical Barriers

Critical errors including 5XX server pages appearing in sitemap, JavaScript/CSS issues flagged, and crawl problems preventing proper access and indexing of key pages.

Site Health & Error Issues

Ahrefs Site Audit showed a Health Score of 98 (Excellent but not perfect), with 2 critical errors, 22 warnings, and 10 notices — including noindex pages, redirect chains (e.g., HTTP to HTTPS, 3XX), and mismatched page/SERP titles.

Performance & Speed Warnings

Multiple slow-loading pages (affecting ~19-20 URLs) flagged as warnings, impacting user experience, Core Web Vitals, and potential rankings due to longer load times.

Internal Linking & Indexing Notices

Weak internal linking (pages with only one dofollow incoming link), noindex follow pages, and minor notices around meta descriptions (too long) and overall crawl budget efficiency.

The Solution

Our Strategy

We implemented a focused, multi-pillar technical SEO overhaul to eliminate errors, resolve warnings, and achieve perfect site health.

01
Technical Audit & Error Resolution
  • Conducted a deep Ahrefs Site Audit to identify and prioritize all issues
  • Fixed critical 5XX errors on pages and removed them from sitemap
  • Addressed noindex follow pages, redirect issues (including HTTP to HTTPS), and mismatched titles
  • Optimized internal linking and eliminated weak single-dofollow link pages
02
Speed & Performance Optimization
  • Tackled slow page warnings (affecting ~19-20 URLs)
  • Improved Core Web Vitals through better resource loading, though specific tools like compression, caching, or CDN may have been applied
  • Reduced load time impacts flagged in audit
03
Content & On-Page Technical Fixes
  • Corrected meta description lengths, updated changed H1/title tags where needed
  • Ensured proper indexing signals and resolved SERP title mismatches for better click-through potential.
04
Ongoing Monitoring & Cleanup
  • Monitored crawl logs and uncrawled links
  • Streamlined site structure for better crawl efficiency and removed lingering notices
