    New company, we need to think about WordPress SEO before developing the WordPress site.

    SEO audit of the main competitor and their SEO keywords. We are in a very relevant SEO strategy for the client. SEO copywriting, yes, because writing aimlessly cannot guide Google bots. It must be optimized as much as possible for search engines.

    WordPress SEO must be considered from the creation of the WordPress site. A good WordPress structure, good internal SEO linking, optimized SEO copywriting, and technical SEO optimization allow for improved natural referencing on Google. A WordPress site without an SEO strategy loses a lot of visibility on search engines.

    We analyze SEO keywords, competitor SEO performance, WordPress structure, and WordPress optimization to create a high-performance WordPress site. WordPress SEO also involves site speed, SEO tags, SEO content, SEO-optimized images, and a clean user experience for Google.

    Today, developing a WordPress site without considering natural SEO referencing is a mistake. Each WordPress page must be SEO optimized for Google with relevant SEO copywriting, consistent SEO keywords, and a clear WordPress structure for search engines.

Reviewed on 3/13/2026

I contacted Nicolas on Malt to resolve an SSL issue on my company Xternalis's WordPress site, and the experience was excellent. After payment, he intervened in less than 15 minutes and immediately fixed the SSL certificate problem that was blocking secure access to the site. Beyond technical troubleshooting, Nicolas took the time to give me a mini-training on natural referencing (SEO) and AI/GEO-related referencing, which greatly helped me better understand current referencing challenges. We also identified several areas for improvement on my site: - Slow WordPress site - Potential security vulnerabilities - Outdated PHP version Following this quick audit, we will soon work together on a complete site redesign to improve performance, security, and natural referencing. I recommend Nicolas without hesitation for: - WordPress troubleshooting - SSL / security issues - SEO optimization - Technical and performance audits A highly responsive, competent, and pedagogical freelancer. An excellent experience.
