SEO Consultant UK: Hiring Me
This website contains a vast amount of SEO help and guidance based on SEO intelligence gleaned from years of hands-on SEO practicing, research and intelligence. Whilst you can read all of our guides and try to implement SEO best practices yourself on your own website it can be hard for a person inexperienced in SEO to see the wood for the trees and often you will miss glaring SEO failings. When you add to this fact the highly dynamic nature of SEO, an everchanging and fast-moving discipline, it is not surprising many people seek out ‘SEO consultancy‘ as their preferred way forward to search engine success. So here are a few helpful FAQ’s about SEO consultancy services:
What does an SEO consultant do?
An SEO consultant will provide an expert SEO service to client businesses, which covers: researching and selecting keywords (studying search volume and keyword difficulty), technical website optimisation, conversion optimisation, visitor tracking & reporting, content development and building backlinks.
How does SEO consultancy work?
Our consulting approach to search engine optimisation is to first conduct a review and analysis of your website to establish strengths, weaknesses and opportunities, this SEO audit will, amongst other things, look at:
Keyword strategy
Domain and site configuration and speed
On-site optimisation
Content quality and optimisation
Backlinks and domain authority
Having established the above, and discussed my findings with you, I work with you to:
Rank your website for relevant, profitable keywords.
Build the online authority of your website and brand.
Increase the number of people visiting your website.
How much does SEO cost?
White-hat, honest SEO that is effective and adheres to Google Webmaster Guidelines cannot be done cheaply. Our minimum rate is £500/month and in most cases more than this depending on the competitiveness of the industry, the size of the website / business and the level of link building help required.

UK SEO Consultancy that delivers real results.
Most of my clients are familiar with SEO and arrive here because their current SEO agency or SEO consultant is failing to deliver the results they need. I give honest and realistic feedback on your ambitions so you know what to expect. I understand that your website needs to rank high page 1 in Google’s organic SERPs to make a fundamental difference to your business. I am not just an ‘SEO Consultant’ but a hands-on website technician who can make the technical SEO changes required on your site as well as advise on what changes are needed for Google prominence.
A Technical SEO Consultant
Search engine optimisation has evolved and requires much more than a good website with some nice content. Many websites fail to reach their ranking potential because of technical weaknesses and oversights. Mainstream internet marketing and SEO agencies often focus more on ‘online PR’ and neglect the technical accuracy and quality of the site’s code and structure. Many agencies don’t have the depth of technical expertise to do this. This is where a technical SEO consultant distinguishes himself. Sometimes a generic online marketing agency can work in unison with a technical SEO consultant and this can work well. If only one of these is an option then the technical SEO approach is in our opinion normally the most effective. Google’s ranking algorithm takes into account mobile performance, speed, semantic search, user location, user behaviour (e.g. CTR and bounce rate), Schema and an array of other ranking factors that are in constant flux in terms of their relative weighting and importance. In 2021 SEO and Google ranking will evolve again and ‘Page Experience’ is going to be a more significant ranking factor. This will take into account ‘Core web vitals’ (as seen in Google Search Console), security (https) and mobile performance.
