Templates
Six templates generate everything. Titles, headings, canonicals, schema and internal linking are all template decisions, and each fix multiplies.

On a five-page site you fix a page. On a five-thousand-page site you fix a template, and then you fix the process that allowed the template to be wrong.
Short answer
Enterprise SEO deals with sites large enough that individual pages stop being the unit of work. The problems are templates applied thousands of times, crawl budget spent on the wrong URLs, several teams publishing without a shared standard, and migrations where a single mistake is repeated across the whole site.
Four details. A real reply the same day, from me.
01 The premise
Below a few hundred pages, SEO is a series of individual decisions. Above a few thousand, that model collapses. Nobody can review five thousand title tags, and nobody needs to — those titles come from a template, and there are probably six templates in total. Fix six things and you have fixed five thousand.
The second change is that the site has many authors. Marketing publishes, product publishes, HR publishes, and a regional team publishes in a different CMS entirely. Every one of them can create a page with a missing title, a duplicate URL or an H1 that is an image. At this scale, quality has to be enforced by the publishing system rather than requested in a document nobody reads.
The third is that mistakes replicate. A wrong canonical rule on a five-page site is a five-page problem. The same rule in a template is a five-thousand-page problem that appears overnight, and it is usually discovered by a traffic drop several weeks later rather than by anyone noticing the change.
02 Focus areas
Almost none of this is writing content. At this size the leverage is elsewhere.
Six templates generate everything. Titles, headings, canonicals, schema and internal linking are all template decisions, and each fix multiplies.
Parameters, filters, sessions and pagination generating URLs by the hundred thousand. On a large site, what Google does not reach is as important as what it finds.
Rules enforced at publish time rather than audited afterwards. Missing meta or a broken heading order should block publication.
On a large site this is a structural asset. Which pages receive links from where decides what ranks, and it is usually accidental.
Training the people who publish, because they will create far more pages than any consultant ever will.
The single highest-risk event a large site experiences. Planned, mapped and validated rather than hoped through.
03 Migrations
Most catastrophic enterprise traffic losses trace back to a migration. All of these are avoidable.
Free scoping call
On most large sites the indexed count and the intended count are very different numbers. That gap is usually the biggest single opportunity, and it takes one crawl to measure.

Straight answers, including the ones that cost me work. If yours is not here, ask it — I reply the same day.
Scale and ownership. Pages come from templates, so fixes multiply; sites have many authors, so quality has to be enforced by the system; and mistakes replicate instantly across thousands of URLs. The work shifts from optimising pages to optimising templates and processes.
By moving requirements into the publishing workflow rather than into a document. Required fields, validation before publish, and templates that produce correct markup by default. Training helps, but a guideline that depends on people remembering will fail at scale.
It is how much of your site a search engine will crawl in a given period. Below a few thousand URLs it rarely matters. Above that — especially with filters or parameters generating URLs — it matters a great deal, because crawling wasted on junk is crawling not spent on your commercial pages.
Redirects. Specifically, not mapping every old URL to a specific new one before launch. It is unglamorous work that takes real time on a large site, and skipping it is behind most of the dramatic traffic losses you read about.
For strategy, diagnosis, template work, migration planning and training — yes, and you get senior attention rather than a junior. For large-scale content production across many markets simultaneously, no, and I will tell you that at the first meeting rather than after signing.
Segmented, never as one number. Traffic and conversions by template and by section, because a site this size always has areas growing while others decline. A single aggregate line hides everything worth knowing.
