Built for AI search

We optimise you to be cited and recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews — not just ranked on page one. It's where your buyers now search first.

Outrank your competitors

Every engagement starts with a Research Pack: a full audit, keyword and AI-visibility baseline, and a prioritised roadmap. You see exactly how you stack up — and the plan to get ahead — before you commit.

Turn visitors into enquiries

We report on the traffic and enquiries the work brings in, not vanity rankings. You'll always know what it returned.

If buyers can't find you, they find a competitor instead

Your best customers are searching right now - for what you do, in your area, often ready to buy. If you're not on the first page, or not in the answer an AI engine reads back to them, that enquiry goes to whoever is.

Most small business websites were never built to be found. The structure doesn't match how people search, the pages don't answer the questions buyers ask, and the technical foundations quietly hold everything back. None of it shows up as a bill - it shows up as a quiet inbox.

Search has changed. Buyers now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews before they click anything - and those engines recommend a handful of businesses by name. We build you into those answers, and track whether you're in them. That's the part most agencies still aren't doing.

What's included in our SEO & AEO

Built around enquiries and AI visibility - not vanity rankings.

Keyword and AEO research

Validated UK data from search and AI, mapped to what your buyers actually search when they're ready to buy.

On-page SEO and AEO

Titles, structure, schema and answer-ready content built around how people and AI engines read your site.

Technical SEO

Speed, Core Web Vitals, indexing and the foundations Google and AI crawlers reward.

AI visibility tracking

We track whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews are citing you - and your competitors - so you can see your share of the AI answer, not guess at it.

Local SEO

Google Business Profile, local pages and the signals that win work in your area.

Monthly reporting and review

A plain-English report tied to enquiries and AI visibility, plus a strategy review - what we did, what it returned, what's next.

Built for 2026 search. We optimise for Google and for the AI engines (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini) - structured, quotable answers and clean schema so you're the source they cite.

Book a discovery call and we'll scope it together

30 minutes. We'll dig into the business, the buyer and what you actually need this to do.

Who we do SEO for

Three patterns turn up most often when service businesses brief us on SEO. If one sounds like you, this is the right place to start.

You're established but invisible

A real business that too few people find online.

  • You do great work but the enquiries don't match
  • Competitors outrank you for the terms that matter
  • You want more of the right leads, not just traffic

Your rankings are slipping

You used to show up - now you're watching it slide.

  • Positions dropping and no clear reason why
  • Traffic and enquiries falling with them
  • You need someone to diagnose it and reverse it

You're missing from AI search

Buyers ask AI and your name never comes up.

  • Competitors are being cited and you're not
  • You want to show up in ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews
  • And know whether it's working, in plain English

How we get you found

Five stages, starting with the research - you see the plan before you commit to the work.

01

Audit and research

Every engagement starts here. We benchmark where you stand across search and AI, pull validated UK keyword data, and map the gap between where you are and where the enquiries are.

What we do
  • Technical + AI-search-readiness audit
  • Keyword and buyer-intent research
  • AI visibility baseline - who's being cited today
  • Competitor and entity analysis
Deliverable
A full audit and a prioritised roadmap, walked through with you.

Why service businesses choose us for SEO

  • We chase enquiries, not vanity rankings

    Every target maps to a search that wins you work.

  • Built for AI search

    Optimised to be cited by the AI engines, not just ranked by Google.

  • Research-led

    Validated UK data before we touch a page.

  • Plain-English reporting

    You'll always know what we did and what it returned.

  • No lock-in

    Month-to-month. We keep your business by earning it.

Most small business SEO in the UK runs as a monthly retainer, and ours starts from £POA/month depending on your market, your goals and how competitive your terms are. A local service business in a quiet niche costs less than a national business fighting for high-value terms. We quote after a short audit so the figure reflects real work, not a guess. It's month-to-month, because the results should keep you, not the paperwork. If a one-off fix makes more sense than an ongoing retainer, we'll tell you that too.
