How long does SEO take to work?
It depends on your competition, your site's current condition and how much needs fixing. Technical fixes can show up in search within weeks. Ranking gains for competitive terms usually build over several months. We agree milestones in the scope so you know what to expect.
Can you guarantee first-page or number-one rankings?
No, and be wary of anyone who does. Search engines decide rankings, and they change. We commit to the work we will do and the measures we will report on, such as visibility, clicks and enquiries.
What is the difference between SEO and Google Ads?
Google Ads places paid results above and around organic ones, and stops when the budget stops. SEO earns organic visibility that builds over time. Many businesses use both: ads for fast demand, SEO for lasting traffic. We plan them together so they do not compete.
How much does SEO cost?
It depends on the size of the site, the markets, how competitive the terms are and how much content is needed. After an audit we send a written scope with a price.
Do you work with my platform (WordPress, Shopify, custom)?
Yes. We work with WordPress, Shopify and WooCommerce, and with custom-built sites. The audit identifies what your platform allows and what would need development.
Do you do local SEO for businesses with more than one location?
Yes. Each real location needs its own accurate profile and a useful page. We do not create pages for places where you have no presence.
How do you handle SEO for several countries?
We decide whether each market needs its own pages, then set up structure, language and country signals so search engines show the right page to the right person. We only create market pages that offer something genuinely different.
What is AI search optimisation, and does it work?
It means making your content clear, accurate and citable so AI assistants and answer features can use it. Nobody can promise placement in AI answers. We work on the fundamentals that help: clear content, structured data, trusted mentions and crawlable pages, and we track what we can measure.
How will I know if it is working?
You get regular reports in plain language covering visibility, clicks, enquiries or sales, and what we are doing next. Reports are based on Google Search Console and your analytics setup.
What do you need from me to start?
Access to your website and Google Search Console and analytics if you have them, a list of your main services and markets, and a short call about your goals.
