What you actually get

Six families of work, and every plan is a mix of them. None of it is mysterious once it is written in English.

Technical fixes

Crawling, indexing, speed and structured data. The unglamorous half, done first, because content on a broken site is content nobody reads.

Pages that answer

Keyword research turned into a written brief per page, then pages written against that brief and checked against it before they go live.

Local presence

The map pack, the Google Business Profile, the citations and the review flow. Where a London trade business earns most of its enquiries, and where an SEO consultant London businesses can actually use spends the time.

Links earned

Digital PR and outreach done in the open, with every placement shown to you and every cost stated, including what the software behind it costs us.

AI answers

Whether assistants quote you when somebody asks them instead of searching. This one is its own plan rather than a line inside a tier: it can be added to any SEO plan from £195 a month, and it is never described as included at no extra charge.

Measurement

Search Console read in short windows, because a long window hides a decline, and a written plan every month with a target in it.

Social media, alongside SEO

Social posts extracted from the same content research, so the reading is not paid for twice, with an always-on paid social campaign inside every tier. Taking it alongside an SEO plan costs less than taking it on its own; how much less depends on the scope, and we will put the figure in writing before you decide.

Could you hire someone, or outsource it?

A hire costs a salary before pension, software and cover. An outsourced freelancer is cheaper by the hour, and the brief, the judgement and the joining up all stay with you. A plan is one figure, and everything on it comes included.

A junior marketing hire

£30,201

  • Salary, before everything below it
  • Pension on top, about £719 a year at the statutory minimum
  • One skill set, learning on your time
  • Holiday, sickness and notice periods
  • Recruitment fees and ramp-up time

Average UK marketing executive salary, from 6,200 reported salaries. Indeed, August 2026. Pension at the statutory 3% employer minimum on qualifying earnings, The Pensions Regulator, 2026 to 2027.

An outsourced freelancer

$15 to $35 an hour

about £11 to £26 an hour in sterling

  • Genuinely cheaper by the hour
  • You write the brief, and you check the work

An SEO audit service, free and written

Where you stand, what is holding you back, and what a sensible month of work looks like. In writing, within a working day, and no call required.

The process

How a London SEO consultant works

  1. The research, and the ads live

    Week one

    What your buyers actually type, checked rather than guessed, and the same research builds your Google Ads.

  2. The fixes

    Month one

    Crawling, indexing, speed and structured data. The unglamorous half, and it comes first.

  3. The pages

    Months two and three

    A written brief per page, then pages written to it and checked against it before they ship.

  4. The compounding

    From month three

    Search Console read in short windows, because a long one hides a decline. What moved, and what changes next.

This is not for you if

  • You cannot wait three to nine months for organic results. The ads inside your plan can work sooner, but if paid enquiries alone are what you need, buy paid search on its own and put the difference into the ad budget.
  • You want a number one ranking guaranteed in writing. Nobody can give you that, and an agency that does is selling you a sentence rather than a service.
  • Your customers do not search for what you sell. Some trades genuinely run on referral and repeat work, and paying us monthly to chase demand that is not there is money you should keep.

Plain English for the jargon

Plain English over industry speak, always. These are the technical terms this page could not avoid.

Crawling
A search engine reading your pages. If it cannot read them, nothing else on this page matters.
Indexing
Being stored in the search engine's list of pages it might show. Crawled is not the same as indexed.
The local pack
The map and the three businesses shown above the ordinary results for a local search.
Backlink
A link to your site from somebody else's. Earned ones help, and bought ones are a liability we do not sell.
Search Console
Google's free report on how your site appears in search. Your account and your data, and we work inside yours rather than a copy of it.
Generative engine optimisation
Work aimed at being quoted by assistants rather than ranked by a search engine. Its own plan here, not a bolt-on.

Straight answers

Still not answered? There is a person at the other end

How long before anything happens?

Your Google Ads campaign goes live in week one, so enquiries are possible from the first month. They will be paid ones. Organic search takes three to nine months to judge fairly, and where in that range you land is decided by how competitive your market is, not by how hard we work. Anyone quoting you a date is guessing.

Why does an SEO plan run Google Ads?

Because organic results take months and your business does not get to pause while they arrive. Ads run from week one of every plan, competitive market or not, so there is a route to enquiries while the slower work compounds. Both are built off the same keyword research, which is why it is one plan and not two.

Can you get me to number one?

No, and nobody can promise it. An agency that puts a ranking in writing is selling you a sentence rather than a service. What we can do is show you what moved each month and what we changed to move it: a written plan with a target in it, and Search Console read in short windows, because a long window hides a decline rather than showing you one.

If I pay monthly, what do I get monthly?

A written plan with a target in it, the work itself, and a statement of what moved. The work is a mix of the six families above: technical fixes, pages written to a brief, local presence, links earned, and the measurement that reads Search Console in short windows. Your Google Ads campaign is managed inside the same month. Read the month; if it does not make sense, the reporting has failed rather than you.

Will you actually learn my business?

Yes, and it is the cheapest part of the work. A brief written without it produces pages that rank for terms nobody buying from you would ever type. Search work for a dentist and search work for a plumber run the same process pointed at different words, and the words are the part that has to be learned.

Does it matter how far away you are?

Not strictly. The work happens inside your Search Console rather than in a room, and a good remote arrangement beats a poor local one. If an SEO company near me is what you searched for, what being close actually buys you is somebody who knows the London market you are competing in, and a studio in Walthamstow you can sit in when a month needs talking through.

Am I tied into a contract?

No. Plans renew monthly, across this whole business. There is no minimum term, no notice period and nothing to sign: a month you have paid for is delivered in full, and a month you have not is simply never started. Tell us and there is no further invoice. The written audit comes before any of that and costs nothing, so you can read what we would do before you buy a month of it.

Is a one-off cheaper than a retainer?

Over six months, sometimes. A one-off fixes what is broken today and nothing keeps pace afterwards, so the arithmetic depends on whether anyone else in your market is still working. Organic results take three to nine months to judge fairly, and the compounding starts from about month three, which a one-off never reaches. A monthly plan is not a commitment either way: it renews one month at a time and stops when you say so.

What this usually sits next to

Most engagements here turn out to be more than one of the six. These are the three that come up alongside this one most often, and why.

  • Web design & development

    Rankings move faster on a site that is fast, crawlable and structured for it, and often that is the same job.

  • GEO

    The same pages get read by AI answers, and what wins there is not quite what wins in the ten blue links.

  • PPC advertising

    Ads cover the terms search work has not reached yet, and the query data from one informs the other.

  • Or take it as one plan

    This is one of six services, and most months it is not the only one running. Our digital marketing plans bundle the matching tier of each, at 16% under buying them apart, on the same no-notice terms.
