Keyword strategy Track record of rankings

Your customers are searching, but are they finding you?

Most businesses we work with come to us because their site isn't showing up on Google, they're losing leads to competitors who rank higher, or they've been burned by SEO agencies who promised the world and delivered nothing. They know SEO matters but don't know where to start.

Problems you may already be facing

  • Your business doesn't appear on the first page of Google
  • Competitors with worse offers are outranking you
  • You're spending on paid ads to make up for poor organic visibility
  • You've been let down by an SEO agency before
  • You don't know what's actually working or being done

Every part of SEO, handled properly

A complete SEO programme covering keyword research, on-page work, technical fixes, content and ongoing tracking.

Keyword research

We find the exact terms your customers are searching for, including local intent, long-tail phrases, and the high-value keywords your competitors are missing.

On-page SEO

Title tags, meta descriptions, headings, internal links, image alt text and schema markup — every page properly optimised so Google understands what you do.

Technical SEO

Site speed, crawlability, mobile usability, structured data, broken links and redirects. The technical foundations that let everything else actually work.

Local citations

Consistent business listings across Google, Bing, Apple Maps, Yell, and dozens of local directories — so search engines trust you and customers find you everywhere.

Content strategy

Service pages, location pages, blog posts and landing pages built around real search intent — content that ranks and converts, not filler that nobody reads.

Tracking & reporting

Monthly reports showing rankings, traffic, leads and what we've worked on. No fluff metrics — just the numbers that matter to your business.

From audit to first-page rankings

A clear, structured process — no jargon, no smoke and mirrors. See the full breakdown.

SEO audit

We audit your current site, rankings, backlinks and competitors so we know exactly what needs fixing and where the opportunities are.

Keyword strategy

We map out the keywords worth ranking for — local terms, service terms, long-tail — and prioritise based on commercial value.

Optimise & build

On-page work, technical fixes, content creation, citations and links. Every month moves the site closer to first-page rankings.

Track & refine

Monthly reports, regular reviews, and ongoing refinement based on what's working. SEO is a long game and we play it properly.

SEO FAQ

How long does SEO take to work?

Most clients start seeing meaningful ranking changes within 3 months, with strong results between 6 and 12 months. SEO is a long game — anyone promising overnight rankings is misleading you. We focus on building lasting visibility, not quick wins that disappear.

How much does SEO cost?

Pro SEO packages start from £395/month with website build included. Pricing depends on your industry, competition and goals. You'll get a fixed monthly fee in writing before any work starts. Get in touch for a free, no-obligation quote.

Do I need a new website for SEO?

Not always. We start with an audit. If your current site has serious technical issues we'll recommend a rebuild — see our web design service. Otherwise we work with what you've got and improve it.

Will I be locked into a long contract?

No. All our SEO retainers are month-to-month with no long-term commitment. You can pause or cancel any time. We'd rather you stay because we're delivering results than because you're stuck.

Do you guarantee page one rankings?

No reputable SEO agency can guarantee page one — anyone who does is lying. What we guarantee is honest reporting, transparent work, and a strategy built around real ranking opportunities for your business.

What's the difference between SEO and Local SEO?

Standard SEO targets organic search results nationally or by topic. Local SEO focuses on geographic visibility — appearing in the Google Map Pack, optimising your Google Business Profile, and ranking for "near me" searches. Most local businesses need both.
