Your Expert SEO Consultancy Partner in the UK
SEO consultancy is strategic advice backed by evidence. Rather than selling a fixed bundle of tasks, a consultant studies your website, your competitors and your customers' searches, then tells you plainly which changes are worth making and in what order. We provide that advice, and we can also carry out the work.

- A prioritised roadmap with expected effort and impact for each recommendation.
- Ongoing guidance for your in-house team, developers or agency.

Specialist areas
Most consultancy projects lean towards one of three areas:
Local businesses
Trades, clinics, solicitors, restaurants and other firms that depend on nearby customers. See local SEO.
Online retailers
Shops that need category and product pages to rank. See e-commerce SEO.
Complex or large websites
Sites where technical issues limit growth. See technical SEO.
Consultant or agency?
Some businesses want a hands-on adviser; others want a team that does everything. We explain the trade-offs in SEO consultant vs SEO agency and offer a checklist in how to choose the right SEO agency or consultant.

Yes. We work with businesses across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, mostly remotely.
