The 3 Pillars of SEO Success

Most agencies focus on keywords alone. We optimize technical performance, local presence, and content—all three.

Local SEO Domination

Capture 'near me' searches and own the Google Maps Local Pack. We optimize your Google Business Profile, build local citations, and dominate Liverpool, Manchester, and Southport rankings.

Technical SEO Audits

We fix the invisible errors killing your rankings: Core Web Vitals, schema markup, crawl budget, mobile usability, and canonical tags. Fast sites rank higher—period.

Revenue Tracking

Technical Foundation: The Invisible Advantage

Most agencies focus on "content" while ignoring the foundation. If Googlebot can't crawl your site efficiently, no amount of blogging will save you. We fix the technical issues first.

Why Rankings Get Stuck

JavaScript Bloat

Heavy WordPress themes and plugins hide your content from search engines. Google's crawler sees blank pages. We implement Server-Side Rendering (SSR) with Next.js to ensure instant indexing—your content is visible to Google from millisecond one.

Crawl Budget Waste

If you have 1,000 low-quality pages (tag archives, category pages, duplicate content), Google stops looking for the good ones. We audit your site architecture, prune wasteful pages, and consolidate content so Google's crawler focuses on pages that actually drive revenue.

Core Web Vitals Failures

Google directly penalizes slow sites. If your Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) is over 2.5s, you're losing rankings to faster competitors. We optimize images, eliminate render-blocking resources, and achieve sub-1s load times consistently.

Missing Structured Data

Without Schema.org markup, Google doesn't understand what your content IS. A restaurant without Recipe or Menu schema won't appear in rich results. A law firm without LocalBusiness schema won't dominate the Map Pack. We inject proper JSON-LD on every page.

Code-First Strategy

Technical SEO is the foundation of your SEO house. Keywords and content are the paint on your walls. If your foundation is broken (slow site, poor mobile UX, missing schema), no amount of beautiful paint will save you. We fix the foundation first, then scale your content.

Dominate Local Search Results

76% of local mobile searches result in a visit within 24 hours. If you're not in the Local Pack, you're invisible.

What is the Local Pack?

When someone searches "solicitor near me" or "best restaurant Liverpool," Google shows a map with 3 businesses—the "Local Pack." These get 75% of clicks. Position 4+ gets scraps.

We specialize in getting Liverpool, Manchester, and Southport businesses into the Local Pack through:

  • Google Business Profile optimization (photos, posts, reviews)
  • Local citations (Chamber of Commerce, industry directories)
  • Review generation strategy (50+ reviews in 90 days)
  • Location-specific content (Liverpool City Centre, Manchester Deansgate, etc.)

Real Results: Liverpool Law Firm

A Liverpool employment law firm was ranking #8 (invisible) for "employment solicitor Liverpool." After 90 days of Local SEO optimization, they claimed the #1 Local Pack position. Result: +412% organic traffic, +87% phone calls. Read the full case study in our SEO Liverpool guide.

Common Questions

Straight answers to your SEO concerns. No jargon, no BS.

How long does it take to see SEO results?
SEO is a compound effect, not a quick fix. Technical improvements (site speed, schema markup) can improve rankings within 2-4 weeks. Content strategy and backlink building take 8-12 weeks to show impact. Significant revenue growth typically kicks in around months 3-6. We build long-term assets that compound over time—think 'snowball rolling downhill' rather than 'overnight success.' Most agencies promise instant results because they're chasing your money, not your growth.
Do you guarantee #1 rankings on Google?
No ethical agency can guarantee a specific ranking because Google's algorithm changes daily (literally—they make 3,000+ updates per year). Anyone who guarantees #1 rankings is lying to you. What we DO guarantee: a data-driven process, transparent reporting, measurable improvements in traffic and leads, and ROI tracking. We've taken Liverpool businesses from page 4 to the Local Pack in 90 days. We've helped Manchester firms beat national competitors. But we never promise specific positions—we promise results.
Why is my competitor ranking higher than me?
It's usually a combination of three factors: (1) Authority—they have more high-quality backlinks from trusted sites; (2) Technical Performance—their site loads faster, has better Core Web Vitals, and cleaner code; (3) Content Quality—they answer the user's question better, with more depth and relevant internal links. We run a 'Competitor Gap Analysis' during discovery to find exactly where they're beating you, then we build a strategy to surpass them. Sometimes it's as simple as fixing your site speed. Other times it requires a 6-month content and backlink campaign.
Do I need a new website for SEO to work?
Not always. We can optimize most existing sites with technical fixes, content improvements, and backlink building. However, if your current site is built on a slow platform (Wix, old WordPress theme, or outdated custom code) that fundamentally hurts your Core Web Vitals and mobile usability, we might recommend migrating to Next.js. Slow sites (3+ seconds) lose 53% of visitors AND get penalized by Google. If your site scores below 50 on Lighthouse, a rebuild will deliver faster ROI than trying to fix a broken foundation.
What is 'Technical SEO' and why does it matter?
Technical SEO is the foundation of your house. It's everything Google's bots need to crawl, understand, and rank your site: site speed (Core Web Vitals), mobile usability, structured data (schema markup), XML sitemaps, robots.txt configuration, canonical tags, and internal linking architecture. Think of it this way: keywords are the paint on your walls. Technical SEO is the concrete foundation. If your foundation is broken, no amount of beautiful paint will save you. 80% of sites we audit have critical technical issues that kill rankings before content even matters.
How do you track SEO ROI?
We don't just track rankings—we track revenue. Our dashboard shows: (1) Organic traffic growth (month-over-month), (2) Keyword rankings (with search volume and competition data), (3) Conversion rates (leads, calls, form submissions), (4) Revenue attribution (which keywords drive sales), and (5) Local Pack visibility (for location-based searches). Every month you get a plain-English report showing exactly how SEO is affecting your bottom line. If organic traffic is up 200% but conversions are flat, we pivot strategy. Results matter, not vanity metrics.
What's the difference between Local SEO and regular SEO?
Local SEO targets 'near me' searches and Google Maps rankings—critical for businesses serving specific geographic areas (Liverpool, Manchester, Southport, etc.). It involves optimizing your Google Business Profile, building local citations (Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, local directories), earning reviews, and creating location-specific content. Regular SEO targets national or international keywords without geographic intent. Most North West businesses need BOTH: local SEO to capture 'solicitor Liverpool' searches, and broader SEO for 'employment law advice UK.' We specialize in dominating local markets first, then expanding.
Can you fix a Google penalty or manual action?
Yes. If your site has been penalized (manual action) or hit by an algorithm update (Penguin, Panda, Core Update), we audit your backlink profile, identify toxic links, submit disavow files, fix thin content, and request reconsideration. Recovery typically takes 4-8 weeks for manual actions, and 3-6 months for algorithm recoveries. Prevention is easier than cure—we audit client sites monthly to catch issues before they become penalties. If you've been hit by a 'helpful content update' (your traffic tanked overnight), we can diagnose and fix it.
