Marketing — SEO & Search
Be the Answer When Your Customers Go Looking
Search traffic is the best kind there is: people actively looking for what you sell, arriving at the exact moment they want it. Earning that traffic takes technical rigour, genuinely useful content and patience — and it compounds, month after month, in a way paid ads never will.
The Work
What Proper SEO Actually Involves
No dark arts, no 'guaranteed page one' nonsense. Sustainable rankings come from doing a lot of unglamorous things well, consistently.
Technical SEO
Crawlability, indexation, page speed, structured data, internal linking — the foundations that decide whether your content gets a fair hearing.
On-Page Optimisation
Titles, headings, content structure and intent-matching, page by page, mapped to the searches that actually convert for your business.
Content Strategy
A publishing plan built from keyword and competitor research — content people search for, written well enough to deserve the ranking.
Local SEO
Google Business Profile optimisation, local landing pages, citations and reviews — for businesses whose customers are within driving distance.
Digital PR & Links
Earned coverage and links from sites that matter, through genuinely useful content and outreach — never bought links that put your domain at risk.
Reporting You Can Read
Monthly reports in plain English: what moved, why, what we're doing next. Rankings, traffic, and most importantly, enquiries and revenue.

The Road In
What the First Six Months Look Like
SEO has a reputation for vagueness, so here's the actual shape of an engagement — what happens, when, and what you should expect to see.
-
Month 1
Audit & technical fixes
The full health check, then the unglamorous repairs: crawl issues, speed, structured data, internal links. Often the fastest wins of the whole engagement.
-
Months 2–3
Content engine starts
Keyword and competitor research becomes an editorial plan; the first content ships. Rankings begin to twitch on lower-competition terms.
-
Months 4–6
Authority building
Digital PR and link earning compound the content work. The harder, more valuable terms start moving — and so do enquiries.
-
Ongoing
Compounding
This is where SEO beats paid: the work already done keeps earning. Each month's report shows traffic, rankings and, most importantly, revenue.
Proof
Results, in Their Words
Eighteen months in, organic search is our biggest channel — ahead of paid, ahead of referrals. The monthly reports are the only marketing emails I actually read.
They told us not to spend on two things we'd already budgeted for. That honesty bought a client for life.
From invisible to page one for the terms that matter in our region. The phone hasn't stopped.
Where We Start
Every Engagement Begins With an Audit
Before we'll take a penny of retainer, we audit. Technical health, content gaps, competitor positions, backlink profile — the lot, distilled into a prioritised plan with honest effort estimates.
Sometimes the audit shows SEO isn't your best next pound — that your site converts so poorly that doubling traffic would barely move sales, and CRO should come first. We'd rather tell you that on day one than discover it together six months into a retainer.
Anyone guaranteeing you a Google ranking is selling something other than SEO.
Questions
SEO, Answered
Technical fixes can show movement in weeks; meaningful traffic growth usually takes four to six months; the compounding effect that makes SEO such good value shows over twelve to eighteen. We'll set expectations per keyword battleground — some hills take longer to climb than others.
Retainers scale with ambition and competition. A local service business needs a very different engine from a national e-commerce brand. After the audit you'll have a fixed monthly figure and a clear list of what it buys.
Strictly. Shortcuts that violate guidelines do work — briefly — and then sites get penalised and businesses get hurt. Nothing we do will ever put your domain at risk, which is also why our results survive algorithm updates.
Happily — that's one of our most common arrangements. We typically handle technical SEO and strategy while in-house teams own content production, with shared dashboards so everyone sees the same numbers.
