      <description>&lt;p&gt;I made a small B2B SEO audit prototype based on my client work — would love critique.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’ve been doing B2B SEO/CRO work across SaaS, GPS/IoT, manufacturing/export, energy storage, and lead-gen websites.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The pattern I kept seeing:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Most small B2B teams don’t really lack SEO data.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They often already have keyword lists, blog posts, product pages, Search Console data, audit reports, competitor examples, and AI-generated content ideas.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But they still get stuck on one question:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“What should we fix first?”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So I started turning my own audit workflow into a small free prototype.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Prototype:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.b2bseokit.com/b2b-seo-audit" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://www.b2bseokit.com/b2b-seo-audit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Right now it asks for:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;website type&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;main SEO goal&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;current SEO stage&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Then it generates:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;priority focus&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;recommended checks&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;what to fix first&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;internal linking suggestions&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;conversion path suggestions&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;AI search / GEO readiness checks&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It’s still early and rule-based. It does not crawl your site or pretend to do a full technical audit.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The goal is simpler:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Can this help a small B2B team figure out what to fix first before creating more content or hiring an SEO agency?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Would love critique on:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Does the output feel specific enough, or still too generic?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What would you expect from a useful B2B SEO audit tool?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Are there any B2B SEO/CRO checks you think are missing?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Would this be useful as a starting point before hiring an agency or planning content?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

      <title>I Built a Free B2B SEO Audit Generator for Teams Who Don’t Need Another Dashboard</title>

      <link>https://dev.to/yy_sun_ba8668fd39553f681b/i-built-a-free-b2b-seo-audit-generator-for-teams-who-dont-need-another-dashboard-4hm9</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/yy_sun_ba8668fd39553f681b/i-built-a-free-b2b-seo-audit-generator-for-teams-who-dont-need-another-dashboard-4hm9</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;I’ve been doing B2B SEO/CRO work for 7+ years, mostly with companies that don’t have huge marketing teams.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some of the projects I’ve worked on include B2B SaaS, GPS/IoT products, energy storage products, manufacturing/export websites, and local service lead-gen websites.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The pattern I keep seeing is this:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Most small B2B teams don’t really lack SEO data.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They often already have some mix of keyword lists, blog posts, product or service pages, Search Console data, audit reports, competitor examples, and AI-generated content ideas.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But they still get stuck on the same question:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“What should we fix first?”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That part is messy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’ve seen sites where blog traffic was growing, but the blog posts didn’t link to product or solution pages.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’ve seen product pages with decent potential, but no buying-intent keyword mapping.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’ve seen B2B pages with technical specs, certifications, or use cases buried too deep for buyers — and probably for AI search systems too.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A lot of SEO tools are good at showing data.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But for lean B2B teams, another dashboard is not always what they need.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They need a simple workflow that says:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;fix these product pages first&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;connect these blog posts to commercial pages&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;improve these CTAs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;add these trust signals&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;make these pages clearer for search and AI visibility&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;track leads from these landing pages&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So I started turning my own audit workflow into a small free prototype.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Prototype:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.b2bseokit.com/b2b-seo-audit" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://www.b2bseokit.com/b2b-seo-audit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Right now it asks for:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;website type&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;main SEO goal&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;current SEO stage&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Then it generates:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;priority focus&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;recommended checks&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;what to fix first&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;internal linking suggestions&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;conversion path suggestions&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;AI search / GEO readiness checks&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It’s still early and rule-based. It does not crawl your site or pretend to do a full technical audit.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The goal is simpler:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Can this help a small B2B team figure out what to fix first before creating more content or hiring an SEO agency?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’m especially trying to make it useful for B2B SaaS, manufacturers/exporters, service businesses, agencies/consultants, and B2B ecommerce teams.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Would love feedback on whether the output feels specific enough, or still too generic.&lt;/p&gt;
