Search engine optimization

People are already searching for what you sell. SEO is the work of making sure they find you: a site search engines can read, content that answers the question, and accurate business details wherever they appear.

What it covers

Four kinds of work, one plan.

Which of these matters most depends on your site and your market. The audit tells us where to spend the effort.

  • 01 / Technical

    Technical SEO

    Making sure search engines can crawl, understand and index every page that matters.

    • Crawling, indexing and sitemap fixes
    • Page speed and Core Web Vitals
    • Structured data and canonical tags
    • Redirects and broken links
  • 02 / On-page

    On-page SEO and content

    Matching each page to what people search for and giving them a complete answer.

    • Keyword and search intent research
    • Titles, descriptions and headings
    • Content planning and improvement
    • Internal linking
  • 03 / Local

    Local SEO

    Showing up in the map results and “near me” searches in the areas you serve.

    • Google Business Profile setup and upkeep
    • Consistent name, address and phone everywhere
    • Review requests and responses
    • Location and service-area pages
  • 04 / Authority

    Links and reputation

    Earning mentions and links from relevant, reputable sites, because search engines read them as trust.

    • Content worth citing
    • Industry and local directory listings
    • Partner and supplier mentions
    • Never paid link schemes

How an engagement runs

Audit first. Then the highest-impact work, in order.

  1. Audit

    We review your site, your search data and your competitors to find what is holding you back.

  2. Roadmap

    You get a prioritized plan: what to fix, why it matters and what to expect from each item.

  3. Implement

    We make the changes directly or work alongside your developer, starting at the top of the list.

  4. Measure

    Each month you see what changed, what moved and what we are doing next.

Straight talk

What we will not promise you.

Guaranteed rankings.

Search engines decide where pages rank, and nobody outside them controls that. Anyone guaranteeing a position is guessing or bending the rules.

Overnight results.

Technical fixes can show up within weeks. Content and authority usually take months. We tell you which is which at the start.

Shortcuts.

No bought links, no keyword stuffing, no copied content. Tactics that break search engine guidelines put your whole site at risk.

Reporting

Numbers that mean something.

A report should tell you whether the work is paying off. Ours covers what happened, what it means and what comes next.

  • Enquiries from searchForm submissions, calls and bookings that started with an organic visit.
  • Search visibilityImpressions, clicks and average position from Google Search Console.
  • The pages doing the workWhich pages bring visitors in and which ones need attention.
  • Site healthIndexing status, Core Web Vitals and any errors that appeared.
  • Local presenceBusiness profile views, direction requests and review activity, where relevant.
  • Work completed and plannedWhat we did this month and what is next on the roadmap.

FAQ

SEO questions.

How long does SEO take to work?

It varies with your starting point and your competition. Fixing technical problems can produce movement within weeks. Building content and authority in a competitive market is typically a matter of months. Your roadmap sets expectations for each piece of work.

Do I need SEO if I already run ads?

Ads stop the moment you stop paying. Organic visibility keeps working, and the improvements that help SEO, such as faster pages and clearer content, usually make ad traffic convert better too. Many businesses use both.

Is local SEO different from regular SEO?

It adds a layer. Local results depend heavily on your Google Business Profile, your reviews and how consistent your business details are across the web. Our local SEO basics guide covers the essentials.

Does SEO help with AI search results?

Yes. AI assistants that search the web find and read the same pages a search engine does, so a healthy, well-structured site is the starting point for both. Our AI search optimization service covers the additional work.

Can you work with our existing website and developer?

Yes. We can implement changes ourselves if we have access, or hand your developer a clear, prioritized list and check the work once it is done.

Is there a long-term contract?

Terms are set out in your proposal. SEO needs time to show results, so we will be upfront about a sensible minimum period, but you always own your accounts, content and data.
