Content audit toolkit

Your website’s been on the to-do list long enough. Here’s a toolkit to help you actually tackle it.
Discovery and researchContent strategy

Find out what’s really going on with your website

Many content teams have the same problem: too much content, not enough clarity. Pages that haven’t been touched in years. A redesign looming. Or maybe you’ve started a new job, and inherited a website that you don’t understand yet.

A content audit is how you get the full picture – what’s working, what isn’t, and what to do about it. This toolkit gives you the method, the templates, and the confidence to do it properly.

Used by freelance content strategists, in-house digital teams, nonprofits preparing for website redesigns, and more.

Why buy the toolkit

You’ve been asked to lead a redesign and you’re not sure where to start. You’ve inherited a site nobody has looked at properly in years. You know your content needs work, but you can’t get sign-off without data to back it up. You’ve started audits before and run out of steam halfway through. This toolkit exists for exactly those situations. Here’s what it helps you do.
  • Get a clear picture of what you’ve got
    Build a full content inventory and combine it with data from Google Analytics and Search Console, so you know exactly what’s on your site and how it’s performing.
  • Know what to keep, improve, or delete
    Finish with a clear, prioritised list of actions. No more staring at a spreadsheet wondering what it all means.
  • Guard against burnout
    A dedicated module on keeping momentum means you’re less likely to get halfway through and grind to a halt.
  • Improve your user experience
    Highlight ways to improve the experience your users have on your site through better content.
  • Get buy-in from the people who matter
    The findings report template helps you present results in a way that stakeholders will actually read and act on.
  • Save weeks of setup time
    The templates alone would take most people days to build from scratch. They’re ready to use from the moment you pay.
  • Cut your carbon footprint
    Reveal outdated, unused content that you can delete to cut the carbon footprint of your site.
“This content audit toolkit was exactly what I needed to get started. It breaks down a daunting task into a simple and straightforward method. I use the template regularly, adapting it to fit the needs of the different clients I work for. It’s built my confidence and given me a really excellent base to hone my craft.”
Zosia Poulter Substrakt
“Lauren’s toolkit is one of the best investments a content practitioner can make. It is a methodical, step-by-step guide, which demystifies not just how to do a content audit, but how to do it well. The toolkit helps you to identify your approach and comes packed with indispensable tools and templates.”

Before you buy

This toolkit won’t do the whole audit for you. It’s a method and a collection of time-saving templates, not a full automation. You need to be able to invest time in completing the audit to get value from it.

If you have a very small, simple website this toolkit might be overkill for you.

The toolkit templates have been designed for Google Sheets and Google Slides. I can provide copies for Excel and PowerPoint, and in open document format. These copies have not been optimised, and you may need to edit them in order for them to work as intended.

The toolkit is risk-free. If you’re not happy with it, email me within seven days for a full refund.

After you pay, I will email you a link to the toolkit and templates.

When you buy the toolkit, you are buying a licence to use it and create your own version of the templates for your content audit(s). This license is for you alone.

You cannot sell, sub-license, distribute, copy, translate, transfer, or otherwise make the toolkit available to any other person. But you can upgrade to team access for an extra £20 per person – email me to get set up.

The toolkit provides general information about content audits. It is not specific advice for your business and unique situation. I am not liable for any loss or damages you incur in connection with the toolkit.
