SEO & local search

Get the basics right.
Build from there.

Help search engines understand your business and help the right customers find useful answers. Practical SEO for businesses serving Sevenoaks and the wider Kent area.

MORE THAN ADDING A FEW KEYWORDS

Useful pages.
Clear local relevance.

01

An honest starting point

Understand the website you have.

Review crawlable pages, titles, internal links, mobile usability and available search data. Identify the work that matters most, rather than turning every possible tweak into an urgent problem.

02

Service content

Answer the questions customers ask.

Describe the actual services you offer, what a job involves and how people can enquire. Location content should reflect genuine service coverage and useful local details, not the same paragraph with a different town inserted.

03

Technical foundations

Make the site understandable.

Check canonical URLs, page headings, sitemap entries, indexability and appropriate structured data. Review redirects after a migration and improve avoidable image or script weight.

04

Local search presence

Keep your details consistent.

Guidance on business information, services, photographs and review requests. Google Business Profile support is offered where your business is eligible; no invented addresses, review purchases or guaranteed map positions.

OPTIONAL ONGOING SUPPORT

A steady programme.
Not a magic switch.

From £180 per month

Ongoing SEO is separate from basic search setup in a website build. A starting support plan focuses on a small, agreed set of priorities rather than trying to change everything at once.

  • A prioritised action list and agreed monthly work
  • Review of available Search Console data
  • Targeted on-page improvements or local profile guidance
  • A plain-English summary of work and next steps

Page production, detailed copywriting, digital PR and major development are separately scoped. Deliverables, review frequency and cancellation notice are agreed in writing before work starts.

Discuss your search visibility

MEASURE WHAT MATTERS

Enquiries are the goal.
Rankings are one signal.

Where tracking is available and appropriate, we look at relevant searches, visits to service pages and completed enquiries, not just a screenshot of one keyword.

Search visibility depends on competition, location, content, reputation and factors outside any studio’s control. Technical improvements can be made at launch; sustained search growth needs time and ongoing attention. Specific positions, traffic levels and rich results cannot be guaranteed.

Google explains the fundamentals in its SEO Starter Guide and local ranking guidance.
