Direct senior delivery, evidence led priorities, plain English reporting, and a clear next step each month.

If you want evidence-led decisions that compound over time, this is the right model.
SEO engagements typically start from around £300 per month.
The exact investment depends on the level of competition, the technical condition of the site, and how aggressively you want to grow.

SEO Services FAQs
Click question to expand
What is SEO and how does it help Exeter businesses?
SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is the process of improving your website's visibility in search engines like Google. For Exeter businesses, it means showing up when local customers search for your products or services by helping drive traffic, enquiries, and sales.
Why does my Exeter business need SEO?
Most people start their search online. Without SEO, your competitors will appear higher in search results, meaning you miss out on potential business. SEO helps ensure your Exeter company is found by the right people at the right time.
How long do SEO results take for Devon businesses?
Typically, noticeable improvements can be seen within 3 to 6 months. It depends on factors like your competition, site age, and how much existing optimisation work has been done. SEO is a long-term investment, but the returns grow over time.
What does an Exeter SEO service package include?
My SEO packages include a full site audit, keyword research, on-page optimisation, technical SEO fixes, local listing enhancements, content strategy, and monthly performance reports. Everything is tailored to your specific goals and industry.
Can an Exeter SEO expert guarantee first page Google rankings?
No ethical SEO agency can guarantee first-page results—Google's algorithms are complex and constantly evolving. What I can guarantee is a proven, best-practice approach that improves your visibility and gives you a competitive edge over time.
Does my Exeter business need ongoing SEO support?
Yes. SEO is not a one-off job, it requires continuous monitoring, updating, and adapting. Search engines favour fresh, relevant content and ongoing activity. Monthly optimisation ensures you stay ahead of the competition.
How is SEO success measured for Exeter companies?
I track keyword rankings, organic traffic, local listing visibility, click-through rates, and conversion metrics. You'll receive regular reports showing how your site is performing and where improvements are being made.
What is Local SEO and how does it benefit Devon businesses like mine?
Local SEO focuses on getting your business found in specific locations, like Exeter or East Devon. I optimise your Google Business Profile, local keywords, and location-based pages—ideal for trades, services, and any business that targets a regional audience. You can find out more about it in my Local SEO article
Does your Exeter SEO service follow Google's best practices?
Absolutely. I only use ethical, white-hat SEO techniques that comply with Google's Webmaster Guidelines. No shortcuts or spammy tactics—just high-quality, sustainable SEO that builds trust with search engines and users.
Can SEO support my new website launch in Devon?
Yes, and it should. I make sure your site is structured correctly from the start, indexed quickly, and optimised for the keywords your Devon audience is searching for. SEO at launch sets the foundation for long-term success.
Do you offer SEO beyond Devon and across the UK?
