An 11-year SEO vet on where Claude + Python works (and fails) in technical audits

A technical SEO practitioner with 11+ years of experience shares how LLMs fit into audit workflows.

Where it works: grouping thousands of URLs by template/intent from crawl exports; comparing pre/post-migration crawls; drafting schema markup for manual validation; spotting patterns in log files and Search Console exports.

Where it fails: prioritization — it ranks fixes by what sounds important, not what moves traffic; anything needing real rendering context; large datasets pasted directly — Python does the heavy lifting and the LLM reads only summarized output.

His rule: the LLM handles repetitive analysis, he handles decisions, and every output gets checked against source data.
