Whether the site explains what you do and where you serve clearly enough.
Website MOT for businesses across Scotland
Website MOT for businesses across Scotland
The free check assesses visible signals on your submitted homepage only. It does not crawl your site or test every device. The £99 automated full audit reviews sampled public pages; implementation is separate and optional.
Use a website MOT to organise checks when your business or website changes. Review the offer, real service coverage and customer journey. GrowthCheck’s free report checks visible homepage signals and suggests a priority action.
A maintenance routine for your Scotland website
What should I check after changing my website?
Revisit the menu, main service links and contact route after a redesign or content update. Confirm that older bookmarks still reach useful pages. Test enquiries with your team’s permission; GrowthCheck does not submit forms on your behalf.
Does a website MOT replace maintenance?
No. The free report highlights visible homepage signals. It does not update software, verify backups or monitor the website continuously. Keep those responsibilities with your website maintainer.
Next: check your homepage free, read the search visibility guide or review your enquiry journey. The £99 full audit includes a private report and prioritised fixes.
The problem
Scottish SME websites often try to cover too much, too lightly.
A consultancy in Edinburgh, a trades business in Fife, a salon in Aberdeen or a cafe in Inverness may all face the same basic challenge: the site needs to reassure quickly and support local intent without overcomplicating the message.
That often breaks down in ordinary ways. Service pages stay too broad. Trust details are easy to miss. Mobile visitors have to hunt for the next step. The business seems real, but not immediately convincing.
What GrowthCheck is
A commercial website review built for small business owners rather than digital teams.
GrowthCheck starts with an automated homepage check. The £99 full audit adds supported evidence and prioritised recommendations.
It gives Scottish businesses a clearer picture of what the website is doing well, where it looks thin or awkward, and what should be fixed first.

Explore the £99 automated full audit.
The GrowthCheck Full Website Audit costs £99 one-off and includes a private report with prioritised recommendations. Implementation is separate and optional.
Next step
If the website feels adequate but not especially effective, that is usually the right moment to review it.
Start with the free check if you want a quick first signal, or go straight to the full GrowthCheck request if you already know you want a deeper report.
