Why use an SEO agency?
Search engine optimisation requires a very diverse set of skills requiring different analytical, technical and creative talents to get the very best results. There are several parts to a successful campaign:
Integral to your project
Optimising your website for search engines should be an integral part of your project, from the very start and concept phase through to every time you post something to the website.
Although many aspects of SEO are very technical, understanding the basics and especially the points relevant to entering content into a CMS are straight forward and can make a huge difference.
We work with you to achieve the best results, it takes time, but with an agreed strategy and ongoing optimisation process in place, you will soon start seeing results.
SEO audit
When we first start to work together we dig into your website, audience and competitors.
Once we know what your current position is we can deliver a set of prioritised tasks that can be broken into a phased programme of work. This lays the foundation to support your content and rankings.
SEO performance reviews
SEO is an ongoing process where strategies need to be defined, changes made and results monitored.
We can review progress periodically and provide analysis on the key performance indicators.
Technical SEO implementation
When we take over a website our audit often reveals technical issues that means the website is not configured as well as it should be. Some will be easy to fix some may require a lot more work that can be evaluated and phased base on priorities.
Making sure the website is setup just as search engines like it (yep there are guidelines) will make their job of indexing the content that much easier.
SEO content strategy
Search is all about content and delivering the very best results. Once you have a solid technical platform and have done the keyword research it will come down to creating better content than the competitors.
Ask yourself: why should your webpage out rank the current top page? What can you add to make it better and more complete? We can help you determine what new content you might need and how to improve your existing pages.
