5. Technical SEO

Search engines need to be able to crawl and index your site; whilst they will do this automatically for sites they find or are submitted to them, a number of things can be undertaken to help them. We use a number of tools (as well as our own SEO platform) that help us assess a website’s performance, and from this, we can make recommendations to improve it. These may look like small tweaks, but they add up to have a big impact on how successful the site is.

Backlinks are important when it comes to search engine optimisation. When creating your link strategy, you need to focus on getting a mix of different links. These should include some from low-authority sites, some from high-authority sites, some from relevant blogs, some from directories, some from forums, and some from social media.

8. Monthly Reports

We regularly report on our progress and show you how our efforts are paying off. We’ll show you where your keywords rank and how well your website is performing. Because our SEO platform generates specific improvements tailored for your site each month, we can also show you exactly what we have done each month so you can see where your money has gone.

SEO takes time to learn and it’s easy when searching online to find people that offer SEO services at crazy low prices. The reality a lot of the time is that the techniques they use can do more harm than good and can take a serious amount of time to undo. There is no way of cheating the system and getting fast results for a low cost and we know this. The only viable alternative to SEO is to pay for Pay per Click ads instead.

It is an important ranking factor with search engines such as Google that your website loads fast.

We do this because page speed is an important ranking factor and therefore optimising for speed is as important as getting the content right.

Frequently asked questions

What is SEO?

SEO stands for “search engine optimisation.” As the name suggests, SEO is the collection of strategies and techniques that improve the visibility and discovery of your website or web page in search engines (e.g., Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.).

How does SEO work?

Search engines work hard to deliver the best possible results to users. This means providing not only high-quality results, but also results that are relevant to the searcher.

What are SEO Packages?

Our SEO packages have been built to offer SMEs with any size budget an SEO service that will enable them to rank higher in organic search results like Google.

What is Local SEO?
SEO can be broken down into several sub-categories, one of which is “local SEO.” As the name suggests, local SEO strategies and techniques aim to improve your website’s local ranking in search engines.
This typically means enhancing the relevance of your website’s content to users in a specific geographic area.
What is Technical SEO?

Technical SEO involves improving the technical aspects of a website to enhance its ranking in search engines. Technical optimisation of a website generally focuses on three key areas: making the site faster, easier for search engines to crawl, and more understandable in terms of content. By improving these factors, you can give your site a better chance of ranking well in search engine results pages.  Technical SEO is part of on-page SEO, which is concerned with optimising website content to achieve higher rankings. 

How much does SEO cost?

It really depends on your business and its goals. However, our done-for-you measured SEO services start at £150+vat per month, this will definitely get you better results over time but is more suited to smaller businesses targeting a local market.

We offer bespoke packages that are tailored to our customer's goals, this could involve a higher upfront cost to give your site a quicker initial boost and then continuous improvement from there.

How long does SEO take?

Once initiated, SEO is a continuous process that requires maintenance and constant refinement. That being said, the initial setup of an SEO campaign can take anywhere from several weeks to several months. This depends on how often search engines like Google crawl your website and update the results. If your site has been penalised it can take up to a year for them to work through the changes.

Does SEO work?

Yes. Without a doubt, SEO works to improve your website’s visibility in search engines. This is because a large part of SEO is ensuring that your website follows Google's best practice guidelines and optimising your content to capture more of your potential customers.

Do I need SEO for my website?

The easy answer is yes! We have yet to find a website that wouldn't benefit from SEO. However, before we take on any new customer, we run a comprehensive audit on your site and only recommend what we believe will work for you. We want all of our customers to be happy with our service! 

Do you carry out SEO work in-house?

Yes, we have a small team of SEO experts that are experienced in optimising websites for search, they receive regular training to keep their skills up to date.

Do you guarantee results?

As we have no control over the search engine algorithms, we cannot guarantee any customer a top spot in the search engine results pages. Any company that says they can is lying! That said we have yet to come across a website that can't be improved over time.

Will I lose any of the gains made from SEO if I stop?

If you stop doing SEO, your website will likely lose any ranking improvements it has made over time, in the same way as it takes a time to gain the results initially. However, it is possible to regain lost ground by starting SEO again. 

How long do I need to carry out SEO?

SEO is an ongoing process that needs to be carried out on a regular basis in order to be effective. There is no set amount of time that you need to carry out SEO for, as it will depend on your goals and the current state of your website. However, it is generally recommended that you carry out some SEO on a monthly basis in order to see the best results.
