Your Umbraco website is one of your most important digital assets, but is it performing at its absolute best? At Nevitech IT Solutions Ltd, we offer professional Umbraco health checks designed to help you understand the strengths and weaknesses of your current site and uncover issues that could be holding back your success.
Our comprehensive health check process evaluates everything from performance and configuration to SEO effectiveness and security vulnerabilities. Whether you're planning a redesign, experiencing technical issues, or simply want peace of mind about your website's health, we deliver a thorough audit and a clear, prioritised action plan.
Why Umbraco Health Checks Matter
Even the best-built websites need regular audits to stay effective and competitive. Over time, content accumulates, plugins become outdated, updates are missed, and performance gradually degrades. Without occasional professional checkups, these issues can lead to slower page loading times, poor search engine visibility, security vulnerabilities, broken components or user errors, and frustrated users with lost conversions.
Our professional Umbraco health checks give you the insight you need to make informed decisions about your website's future and ensure it continues to serve your business goals effectively.
What's Included in Our Health Check?
We review your site comprehensively from top to bottom, covering three main categories: performance, security, and SEO. We also include detailed configuration and code quality checks to ensure industry best practices are being followed.
Umbraco CMS Health
We examine outdated versions or missing patches, identify use of deprecated features or packages, and assess the structure and usability of document types and data. Our review includes Block Grid and Block List implementation and efficiency, media library usage and organisation, and the overall content editing experience and workflow.
Performance Audit
We measure page loading times and server response metrics, analyse database query efficiency, and review caching setup and use of Examine indexes. Our performance review covers image optimisation and compression, identifies code bloat or unnecessary dependencies, and assesses how your hosting environment impacts speed.
SEO Best Practices
We evaluate on-page structure including H1 tags, meta descriptions, and titles, assess page speed and mobile responsiveness, and review sitemap.xml and robots.txt configuration. Our SEO audit examines canonical URLs and redirects, and checks schema markup and Open Graph tags implementation.
Security Review
We assess HTTPS and SSL configuration, review CMS user roles and permissions, and examine IP restrictions and firewall setup. Our security evaluation includes XSS and CSRF protection mechanisms, password policy and data encryption, and audit trail of logins and content changes.
Hosting and Environment
We review environment configuration including debug mode and custom errors, assess logging and error reporting setup, and evaluate backup strategy and recovery readiness. We also review deployment pipeline configuration if applicable.
Prioritised Recommendations
Following our thorough audit, you'll receive a detailed report outlining a comprehensive summary of findings, specific recommendations for improvement, and a categorised list of issues.
Each item is clearly explained with actionable next steps, making it easy for your internal team or developers to start making improvements right away.
Who Is It For?
Our Umbraco Health Checks are ideal for businesses unsure if their current site is performing optimally, marketing teams struggling with slow sites or poor SEO performance, and agencies needing a second opinion or pre-project review.
They're also perfect for site owners preparing for a redesign or CMS upgrade, and clients taking over an existing website who want to understand its current condition. We work with websites hosted on Umbraco Cloud, Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, and self-hosted VPS environments, tailoring our analysis to your specific configuration and business needs.
A Friendly, Professional Approach
We understand that technical reports can be overwhelming, which is why we focus on delivering clear, jargon-free summaries backed by optional walkthrough sessions. During these sessions, we explain our findings and help you plan the most effective next steps.
Our team includes two Umbraco Certified Masters, backed by over 25 years of software development experience. You're in safe, capable hands, and we're always happy to answer questions, even after the report is delivered.
Optional Fix and Follow-Up Service
Once you've reviewed your health check report, you can choose to handle the fixes internally with our guidance if needed, ask us to implement the fixes for you via ad-hoc support or retainer arrangements, or schedule a follow-up health check to verify improvements have been successful.
We're flexible and happy to work in whatever way suits you best, ensuring you get maximum value from your health check investment.
