SEO

SEO that starts at the design stage

A good-looking site is not enough. It also has to be found - and that depends on decisions made long before the first line of copy.

SEO is not a service you can sensibly bolt on after launch. It shapes the URL structure, how content is divided, the headings, the speed and the way people move around the site. That is why I plan it together with the design.

I do not sell guarantees of first place, because nobody honest can give one. What I do show is exactly what I am doing, what follows from it and how to verify it in Google Search Console.

  • /Local businesses

    When customers search for a service together with a town name and you want to appear ahead of the competitor around the corner.

  • /Sites with no traffic

    The site exists, it looks decent, and still nobody arrives. The problem usually sits in the structure and the content, not the visuals.

  • /Online stores

    Where every product page could be its own entry point from Google, and usually is not.

01/Scope

What the project includes

  • Technical audit

    Indexing, redirects, 404 errors, duplicate content, sitemap and robots.

  • Keyword and intent plan

    Which phrases belong to which page, so they stop competing against each other.

  • Core Web Vitals

    Real loading speed and layout stability, measured on a phone rather than only on a fast connection.

  • Structured data

    Schema for the business, services, reviews, FAQ and articles - the basis for rich results.

  • Local SEO

    Consistent business details, Google Business Profile and local pages written for a specific market.

  • Content and guides

    Articles that answer the questions customers actually ask, not text written for a crawler.

  • Internal linking

    Sensible connections between pages so the most important ones accumulate authority.

  • Monitoring

    Search Console, checks on errors, redirects and positions - with a report you can actually read.

An honest answer

"How long does it take to reach the first page?"

It depends on how competitive the phrase is. Local, specific queries can surprise you within weeks - one of my projects entered the results for an industry phrase in six weeks. National, heavily contested phrases are months of work and require adding content continuously. If somebody promises you the top spot in a fortnight, they are selling a fairy tale.

What does it cost?

Implementation SEO is part of the website project. Ongoing SEO is a separate monthly arrangement - its scope is agreed after the audit, so you do not pay for work your site does not need.

03/FAQ

Questions I hear most often

  • Yes. I work from Google Search Console and analytics data. The report shows what changed in visibility and visits, without hiding behind metrics that mean nothing.

  • Yes, but we start with an audit. Sometimes it turns out to be cheaper and faster to rebuild the site than to fight the limits of an old solution for years.

  • No, because nobody can honestly guarantee that. What I guarantee is a specific scope of work and evidence of its effect in the data.

  • It is work aimed at queries that include a place name and at visibility in Google Maps. It covers the business profile, consistent contact details and pages written for a specific market.
