Website architecture auditing (aka “site architecture”) is the process of evaluating a website’s categorical hierarchy. A successful audit will display dead internal links (404’s), link loops, miscategorized web pages, broken URL parameters, and more. A proper site architecture evaluation can also be the difference between a great user experience (leading to a sale or conversion) and a horrible user experience (leading to wasted traffic and - over time - lower SEO rankings).
A website’s site architecture will affect many elements including (but not limited to), user experience, SEO ranking equity, conversion rate, bounce rate, and content strategy. The best way to structure a website depends on many factors like, whether or not your site is an eCommerce store, a news website, a blog, a comparison engine page, a restaurant website, a digital services provider, and more. Evaluating your site architecture is a critical component of technical SEO as well as digital product marketing to ensure that users of your site get to where they need to go as quickly and efficiently as possible.
While it is VERY important to optimize for Google’s crawlers, it is even MORE important to keep the customer (or end-user) in mind throughout your site-building process.
Pro tip: When conducting a site migration to a new platform, be SUPER careful not to change your site architecture too much or Google may drop your site from its indexes. The exception here is if your site (or certain “branches” of your site) is not ranking well to begin with, then maybe a change is welcomed to encourage better crawling and a better UX
