Search Optimisation 'SEO'
Getting the position you deserve on search engines can be challenging. From assessing the competition, to knowing what to change to rank higher, can seem more than a little daunting. Having already invested in developing your website, we highly recommend that you plan your SEO strategy so you get the best from it. We’re not, however, one of the many companies that will charge you a fortune, promise you a number one position on Google, then promptly disappear when it doesn’t materialise. We take a more practical approach: assess how things are, and where your site could be. Define what needs to be done then discuss if you wish to do it yourself or for us to implement it for you. Finally, we monitor what effect the changes have had.

SEO strategy and implementation
Different problems require different solutions. Sometimes the changes required may be purely technical and can be resolved quickly by our developers. Other sites simply need a few changes to content. Using links and increasing the quality and number of links to the site is also a large part of SEO and this usually means producing content that other sites want to link to. We can help by working with you to produce and publicise content. Some of these changes may be work you can do yourself, however, we’re always here if you feel your time would be better spent elsewhere.
We will always produce a work plan to suit your budget and targets. This often takes the form of an initial phase of work to optimize and make technical changes to the site, followed by monthly monitoring and update work in response to results. Ongoing work always includes a report to show what has been done and what results have been achieved. The cost of this work starts from just a few hundred pounds per year, depending on targets set and sector competition.
