Our Services
What Does A Bristol SEO Company Actually Do?
Every business is different, which is why I tailor my approach and services to what your specific situation needs. Here’s how I help Bristol businesses capture more demand and get more local customers choosing them over competitors.
Before I dive into any work, I need to understand where you stand. I’ll conduct a full audit of your current online presence, including your website, competitors, and local search performance. You’ll get a clear roadmap showing exactly what’s holding you back and my step-by-step plan to fix it. No confusing technical reports – just honest insights about what needs to change.
On-Page SEO
Your website pages need to speak Google’s language whilst connecting with Bristol customers. I optimise your content, headlines, and page structure so search engines understand exactly what you offer and who you serve. Not only does my content rank in Google, it also turns clicks into customers like clockwork.
Technical SEO
This is the behind-the-scenes techy stuff that makes or breaks your rankings. I fix crawling issues, speed up your site, and ensure Google can easily find and index your pages. Technical SEO is often the “invisible” stuff that happens in the code of your site. Yet, it’s incredibly important if you want to rank higher on Google.
Off-Page SEO
Off-page SEO helps build your reputation and authority in Bristol’s business community. I help you earn quality backlinks and citations from local directories, industry sites, and other relevant sites. It’s about becoming the go-to name in your field, not just another option.
Local SEO & GBP
Local SEO and Google Maps are an essential component in local markets. I optimise your Google Business Profile, manage your local citations, and manage your reviews to ensure you show up when people search for services in your area. More importantly, I help you get a great position in the “map pack” – those three businesses that appear at the top of local searches.
SEO Coaching & Consulting
Maybe you want to learn the ropes yourself, or you have a team that needs guidance. I offer hands-on coaching sessions where I walk you through exactly what to do, when to do it, and how to measure success. Once I’m done, your team will be complete SEO pros.
No Long-Term Contracts
One-Time SEO Projects So You're Not "Tied In" To Lengthy Contracts
Unlike other SEO agencies that lock you into endless monthly retainers, I work differently. I believe in focused, intensive campaigns that deliver results quickly rather than dragging things out indefinitely.
Every project is a 4-6 month sprint with a clear beginning and end. I dive deep, implement everything your business needs, and get you ranking higher.
Most Bristol businesses find that one or two sprints are enough to get them where they need to be on Google. After that, many choose to focus on other areas of their business, knowing their website is creating a steady stream of free customers.
Web Design and Development
Get a Free New Website With Every SEO Campaign! (Just Cover Hosting)
Don’t have a website yet? Or perhaps you’ve got an old one that’s not pulling its weight? I’ll build you a professional, SEO-optimised website as part of your campaign – completely free. It’s designed specifically for Bristol businesses and comes perfectly optimised for search engines out of the box.
This is part of my process because I find the websites built for business just aren’t up to scratch. They focus more on fancy designs and “branding”. When it comes to actually creating customers, they usually fall short.
How it Works
This is What to Expect From a Professional SEO Company in Bristol
I believe in complete transparency from day one. Here’s exactly what happens when you work with me, so there’s no surprises. By following this process, I help your Bristol business get found on Google.
1. Discover
I’ll audit your current online presence, understand your business goals, and create a tailored strategy that targets the right Bristol customers. You’ll know exactly what we’re going to do and why before I start any work.
2. Build
I’ll fix your website (or build you a new one completely free), sort out all the technical issues, and optimise everything for local search. From your Google Business Profile to your on-page content, I’ll make sure you’re perfectly optimised to attract Bristol customers.
3. Grow
You’ll get regular updates in whatever format works best for you. Some clients prefer detailed monthly reports, whereas others are fine with a quick email or phone call. At the end of each sprint, I’ll review results and check where we are.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Does SEO Cost?
It depends on what you need and how much time i’ll spend on the website. Usually, I’ll need to do an audit to determine what you need. I do suggest you just give me a call so we can talk about the sticky topic of price. I’m always honest and won’t try to upsell you to you the moon on something you don’t need. Also, I offer different forms of payment, such as commission or revenue-share.
Does SEO Work for Any Business?
Whereas most SEOs would say yes, I’m actually going to say no. SEO works exceptionally well for local service-based businesses 99% of the time. However, highly technical niche industries can sometimes lack the audience online to make SEO worth it, simply because there aren’t enough people searching for your services. Additionally, SEO might be worth it for the 2 years or so, but once you’ve established yourself at the top of Google, it doesn’t make sense to continue investing the same amount each month. In this case, a smaller “maintenance” service is more appropriate.
Does SEO Require Continuous Work or is it a One-Time Project?
You can do both to be honest. However, you do need to make continuous tweaks and changes to your site to maintain a top position, it’s just majority of the heavy-lifting happens in the first few months of a campaign. In my opinion, it’s better to start with a short-term project and front-load the work, followed by a smaller continuous fee each month to tweak, update, and maintain results.
How Are You Going to get my Website to the Number One Spot on Google?
We’ll start off we a strategy session where I learn more about your business and understand your current website. If you don’t have one, I can build one for you.
After this, I’ll put together the keywords we’ll target and begin optimising the website across all areas of SEO, including on-page, technical, and off-page in the form of business citations.
It’s worth noting I don’t offer backlinks as a solo service because it’s not a viable strategy for business owners these days, especially in a local environment like Bristol. Content and on-page SEO is the way to go.
Will You Work With my Competitors?
Bristol is a small city and I understand the conflict of interest I have if I work with two competitors. If that situation happens (it hasn’t yet), i’ll be transparent and make sure you both know what’s going on. I will only work with up 3 people within the same industry in Bristol.
If Something Urgent Comes Up, How Quickly Can I Reach You?
I’m always available on my phone and I’m on-call throughout the day if you need me. You can also send me an email, but phone call is the best method of communication. I can answer any questions or concerns you might have.
How Long Does SEO Take?
It can take around 4-6 months to see significant shifts in your online performance. That’s why I only will work with a Bristol business for a minimum of 4-6 months. SEO isn’t a sprint, it’s a marathon. You can’t expect to see results instantly. Think of it more as a long-term investment.
Do You Offer Discounts for New Businesses or Charities?
Yes, I do! I have a limited number of pro-bono spots for charities and businesses-in-need each quarter. Additionally, if you’re a new business with no digital presence at all, I can offer a discounted fee or even work on a revenue-share model to help get your business off the a flying start.
Is SEO still relevant in 2025?
Yes, and it’s more relevant than ever. AI and algorithm changes have made SEO more sophisticated, not less important. With AI Overviews, AI Mode, and AI chatbots entering the scene, SEO and GEO are now at the forefront of business owners’ minds, making it essential that websites are optimised in the right way. My SEO services focus on the SEO strategies and tactics that actually move the needle.
