About the Forensic SEO Investigation Service

This isn’t a typical audit. This is an investigation. I treat your site like a crime scene - reviewing data, logs, SERPs, and history to piece together what’s gone wrong. Then, I deliver clear, actionable steps to put it right.

You’ll get:

  • A full written report with evidence, analysis, and conclusions

  • A step-by-step plan to fix the issue

  • Optional follow-up to check recovery progress

Something’s not right.

Traffic’s dropped.
Leads are down.

A page that used to bring in business is now buried on page five of Google.

You've looked at Search Console, asked your web dev, maybe even tried ChatGPT… but nothing adds up.

That’s where I come in.

This isn’t your standard SEO audit.

It’s a forensic investigation—a deep dive into what’s happened, why it’s happened, and what to do about it.

What I Do.

This isn’t about running an audit tool and handing you a PDF. It’s about real diagnosis and a proper plan.

Typical problems I investigate:

  • Sudden ranking drops

  • Pages being deindexed or not crawled

  • Site migrations that kill traffic

  • Technical issues blocking visibility

  • Duplicate or thin content

  • Falling click-through rates

  • Internal linking mistakes

  • Poor rendering or JavaScript SEO

  • Content changes that backfire

  • Spammy backlinks or toxic link profiles

If it’s hurting your SEO and no one can explain why, I’ll get to the bottom of it.

Meet Graham McCormack

My name is Graham McCormack and I’ve been helping people fix issues with their website performance for nearly 20 years. In that time I've worked with all sizes of website worldwide. I'm based in Wirral, UK.

While others throw generic advice at you, I dig deep. Think Sherlock Holmes with a sitemap.

I’ve worked with local businesses, eCommerce sites, and large brands, and one thing’s always true: when something breaks in SEO, you feel it in traffic, rankings, and revenue. My job? To figure out why it’s broken and tell you exactly how to fix it.

I'm not here to sugarcoat. I’m here to find the truth behind your SEO problem, whether it’s a botched migration, plummeting rankings, indexing issues, or just that niggling drop in leads nobody can explain. I’ve seen it all - and I know how to get results.

What You Get.

You’ll get a full report written in plain English. No fluff. No generic advice.

Here’s what’s included:

  • A clear explanation of what’s gone wrong

  • Evidence and examples so you can see for yourself

  • A step-by-step fix-it plan

  • A breakdown of priorities—what’s urgent and what can wait

  • A video walkthrough if needed, so you’re not left guessing

If you want support implementing the fixes or want me to check things after they’re done, that’s an option too.

Who Needs This Service.

This is for you if:

  • Your site’s performance has dipped and no one knows why

  • You've migrated or rebuilt your site and lost traffic

  • You’re an agency or SEO stuck on a tricky client issue

  • You want an expert to sense-check your own diagnosis

  • You need a clear action plan, not another template audit

This service is all about answers—not vague suggestions.

Who are these services for?

This service is for anyone who’s staring at a ranking drop, traffic dip, or indexing mess and wants answers without the usual SEO waffle.

You’ve got a business to run, not time to wade through jargon. You just want to know what’s gone wrong and how to sort it. I’ll give you straight answers, not fluff.

You’ve done your checks and tried a few things, but the problem hasn’t gone away. You need an experienced SEO to dig deeper and help you fix it properly.

When your client’s site hits a wall and your usual approach isn’t working, I can step in behind the scenes. I’ll investigate the issue and provide a report you can use under your brand or mine.

If you’re stuck, stressed, or just want a second opinion that actually makes sense, this service is for you.

What It Costs.

Every case is different, so I don’t list fixed prices for complex issues. But for context:
Straightforward investigations start from £500 +vat

Larger, more complex investigations (like migrations or multiple domains) will cost more

You’ll always know the cost before I start. No surprises.
Please note I am UK based so prices are shown in GBP (£)
I operate in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia & New Zealand
