An SEO questionnaire covers contact details, goals, priority pages, constraints, access needed for the work, and how progress will be judged.
Search results slip, the site has a hundred moving parts, and “SEO” can start to feel like reports with no clear changes behind them. This SEO questionnaire collects the facts an SEO provider needs up front so the work can start with the same picture of the goal, the pages that matter, and the rules that can’t be broken.
The form opens with a short note about what happens after submission, then moves into Project details so the answers land in a practical order. Zilla Slab headings over Inter body text keep the page feeling like a work plan, not a pitch, and the indigo palette stays restrained while the questions get specific about priorities, access, and what “progress” means. The client spells out the primary goal, names the priority pages and desired outputs, shares constraints, and answers how milestones will be judged, so nobody has to guess what gets changed first or what counts as movement.
