§ SEO / Services catalogue

Six services, one operating system for organic growth.

Every engagement begins with the same diagnostic pass. Scope then tightens around the services below, each priced against your domain's current ranking surface and commercial priorities.

01

Technical SEO

Technical SEO fixes the invisible layer Google depends on to crawl, render, and index your pages. A site that renders slowly or buries content behind JavaScript loses rankings regardless of content quality.

In scope

Crawl and indexation audit

Identify orphan pages, index bloat, parameter traps, and crawl-budget waste. Typical output: a prioritised defect log with estimated traffic recovery per fix.

Core Web Vitals and rendering

Diagnose LCP, INP, and CLS regressions through real-user data and lab testing. Common fixes include third-party script deferral, image format migration, and hydration strategy changes.

Site architecture

Map URL hierarchy, internal link graph, and topical clusters. Restructure so link equity flows toward commercial pages and topical authority consolidates around head-term entities.

Structured data

Implement JSON-LD for Organization, Product, Article, FAQ, LocalBusiness, and Breadcrumb schemas. Validate in Rich Results Test and monitor enhancement reports in GSC.

International and hreflang

Audit multi-region deployments, fix hreflang reciprocity errors, and resolve canonicalisation conflicts across ccTLDs, subdomains, and subfolders.

Migration and recovery

Plan pre-launch crawl parity checks, redirect maps, and post-launch monitoring. Recover traffic losses from botched migrations, algorithm updates, and manual actions.

Expected outcomes

  • Reduced crawl waste and faster indexation of new URLs
  • Higher proportion of pages generating impressions in GSC
  • Improved Core Web Vitals thresholds for mobile and desktop
  • Correct structured-data coverage across eligible templates
02

Content Strategy

Content strategy defines what to publish, in what order, and at what depth to capture commercial and informational demand without cannibalising yourself.

In scope

Topical map creation

Build a complete topical map for your niche — central entity, supporting entities, and every query variant with measurable search demand. Each node receives a role: hub, cluster, or supplementary.

Search intent classification

Classify queries as informational, navigational, commercial, or transactional. Match each query to a page template, word count, and SERP feature target.

Editorial calendar

Sequence content by cluster strength, not by calendar convenience. Publish hub pages before clusters; publish comparison pages before standalone reviews.

Brief templates

Provide writers with heading vectors, required entities, Q&A pairings, and mandatory context terms. Briefs remove guesswork and keep articles semantically consistent.

Content refresh audit

Identify decaying pages in GSC, diagnose cause (intent drift, ranking cannibalisation, or outdated facts), and prioritise rewrites by recoverable traffic.

Expected outcomes

  • Predictable capture of informational and commercial queries within each cluster
  • Elimination of internal keyword cannibalisation
  • Shorter time-to-rank for new pages through cluster authority
  • Lower editorial cost per published article via standardised briefs
03

Semantic SEO

Semantic SEO treats every page as an entity-attribute-value graph. Pages win rankings when heading structure, paragraph order, and entity coverage match how Google represents the topic internally.

In scope

Heading vector design

Draft H1 and H2 hierarchy so each heading covers a distinct attribute of the central entity. No two headings answer the same question; no heading links to a competing page.

Question-answer pairing

Open each section with a direct answer to the heading. Boolean questions receive yes/no before expansion. Delayed answers get flagged and rewritten.

Entity coverage scoring

Measure required entity density per page against SERP competitors. Add missing attribute pairs (price, dimensions, compatibility) until coverage exceeds the ranking threshold.

Discourse integration

Verify anchor segments between paragraphs, mutual words across sections, and contextual flow from first heading to last. Remove topic jumps that dilute the central entity.

Macro and micro context alignment

Confirm title and H1 reflect the macro context and every paragraph reinforces it. Strip preamble and rhetorical filler that weakens ranking signals.

Expected outcomes

  • Entry into featured snippets and People Also Ask boxes
  • Higher click-through rates from improved heading relevance
  • Sustained ranking through algorithm updates that target content quality
  • Clear separation between pages targeting adjacent queries
05

Local SEO

Local SEO captures demand that carries geographic intent — "near me", "in [city]", and service-plus-location queries. Ranking depends on Google Business Profile signals, NAP consistency, and local entity mentions.

In scope

Google Business Profile optimisation

Complete every profile field, categorise primary and secondary services correctly, and publish weekly Posts. GBP signals directly influence local-pack and Maps rankings.

Citation and directory audit

Audit your NAP across 30+ UK citation sources. Fix inconsistencies, claim unclaimed listings, and remove duplicates that split citation equity.

Review generation workflow

Build an automated review-request sequence triggered on invoice close or service delivery. Reply to every review within 24 hours.

Localised landing pages

Create service-plus-city pages with unique local proof, reviews, and project photos. Boilerplate city pages get ignored; real local content captures the local pack.

Local link acquisition

Secure links from chambers of commerce, BIDs, local sponsorships, and regional press. Local links carry outsized weight for local-pack rankings versus national links.

Expected outcomes

  • Appearance in the local pack for core service-plus-location queries
  • Higher call and direction-request volume from GBP insights
  • Star-rating average above 4.7 with consistent review cadence
  • Map pack visibility in a 5-mile radius around primary service address
06

E-commerce SEO

E-commerce SEO scales across thousands of category, product, and filter URLs. Template quality, faceted navigation rules, and product schema determine organic revenue more than hand-crafted copy ever will.

In scope

Category page templates

Design category templates that rank for head terms — unique intro content, ordered product grids, FAQ modules, and internal links to complementary categories.

Product page optimisation

Write unique product descriptions at scale, implement Product schema with reviews and aggregate ratings, and capture long-tail variant queries through attribute pages.

Faceted navigation rules

Decide which facet combinations deserve indexation, which require canonicalisation, and which should robots-noindex. Wrong rules bloat the index and waste crawl budget.

Merchandising and internal linking

Map complementary categories, cross-sell bundles, and collection pages. Internal links drive link equity toward high-margin commercial URLs, not legacy category dead ends.

Programmatic SEO

Identify repeating query patterns ("[brand] vs [brand]", "[product] for [use case]") and generate landing pages from your structured data. Every new page must pass the thin-content threshold.

Expected outcomes

  • Organic revenue growth across category and product-level URLs
  • Indexed ratio above 80% for commercial pages
  • Product rich results in SERPs with star ratings and price
  • Clean index free of parameter bloat and thin facet pages

§ Common questions

Questions clients ask before engaging.

How long before I see SEO results?

SEO timelines depend on domain age, existing authority, and competition. New domains typically see first rankings within 4 to 6 months; established sites show movement within 6 to 10 weeks of technical fixes. Semantic rewrites produce faster gains than link building in most verticals.

Do you guarantee rankings?

No legitimate consultant guarantees rankings. Google controls the algorithm and ranking factors shift without notice. I guarantee the methodology, the deliverables, and the reporting transparency — and commit to measurable milestones in each engagement.

What does an engagement cost?

Engagements run from £850 per day for discrete audits to fixed-scope retainers from £2,500 monthly. Scope and commercial value drive pricing, not hours. Every proposal includes expected traffic impact and payback timeline.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes. Agencies hire me for technical audits, semantic content strategy, and migration plans they deliver under their own brand. White-label engagements carry a standard NDA and defined deliverable scope.

Which industries have you worked in?

Recent engagements span education, legal, local services, B2B SaaS, finance, and e-commerce. Methodology transfers across industries; industry-specific nuance comes from the topical map and SERP competitor analysis conducted in week one.

Shortlist the services that fit, then book a call.

One 30-minute call confirms scope, agrees milestones, and issues the proposal. No sales choreography, no retainer trap.
