How Our SEO Process Works
Keyword Research & Strategy
We find the exact phrases your customers type into Google – 'emergency plumber near me', 'patio paving experts' – and build a strategy around commercial intent, local competition, and seasonal trends.
On-Page Optimisation
We optimise every element of your site – titles, meta tags, headings, schema markup, internal links, image alt text, and URL structures – so Google understands exactly what you do and where.
Local SEO & GBP
We dominate the 'near me' searches with Google Business Profile optimisation, local directory citations, and location-specific landing pages for every area you serve.
Technical SEO
Speed improvements, mobile optimisation, Core Web Vitals, crawl error fixes, structured data, XML sitemaps – all the behind-the-scenes work that makes a real difference to rankings.
Content Creation
2-4 optimised articles per month covering topics your customers actually search for. Each piece attracts visitors and converts them into leads.
Link Building
Quality backlinks from trade directories, local business listings, industry publications, and community partnerships – boosting your authority and rankings.

Google Business Profile Optimisation
Your GBP is the digital front door to your local presence. It appears in the "map pack" – the top 3 local results that dominate the search page.
We ensure your profile has accurate categories, optimised photos, regular Google Posts, and a strategy for collecting 5-star reviews.
One plumber in Essex went from 12 GBP calls/month to 87 within 4 months of our optimisation.
SEO vs PPC – Which Is Right?
PPC delivers quick results but costs per click. SEO takes longer but provides sustainable, free traffic once you're ranking. Many successful trade businesses use both.
We'll help you decide the right balance based on your budget, timeline, and goals.
