SEO Advice & Consultancy

Let’s demystify SEO once and for all!

SEO is not a magic trick.

It’s about adding value to your industry and putting your customer at the centre of what you do.

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO for short) is a term that’s often thrown around as if there’s some magic trick or special formula.

This is simply not true.

SEO is about answering questions, providing something of value that’s relevant to your industry and understanding your audience.

Yet, when you start looking for information on SEO, you’ll find lots of jargon about keywords and backlinks.

Whilst these do remain important elements of your overall search engine strategy, there’s very little advice on search intent, building overall authority and technical best practices.

I focus on search engines because they give long-term results when compared to other forms of digital marketing, such as paid advertising or social media.

If you have a blog, business or website and you want to improve its search engine performance, I can help!

Frequently Asked WordPress Support Questions

Who I Work With

Local, National & Global Businesses
Almost all businesses (including startups) are going to need some sort of online presence. People are searching for your product or service, you need to be easy to find in order to compete. I can work with you to remain competitive online and give valuable content to your audience.

Charities & Non-Profit Organisations
Most charities and non-profit organisations need help to stay ahead in the world of ‘Digital by Default’. Cuts to funding and demands on services make it challenging for charities to keep afloat digitally. I can oversee the digital aspects of your organisation so you can focus on delivering excellent services.

Bloggers & Individuals
So many people have side hustles alongside their regular jobs. This might be blogging, or even selling handmade items on Etsy, eBay or Amazon. I can help turn your hobby or side hustle into a profitable business!

Where are you based?

I mostly work from my home office in South Wales, or from co-working spaces across Caerphilly, Cardiff and Pontypridd. However, due to the nature of my work – I can work from anywhere! I’ve worked from Cairo, Chiang Mai, Lisbon and just about anywhere with WiFi!

Can you share the URLs of your passive income websites?

With the greatest respect, no. I can’t share the URLs, nor the keywords that I rely on to pay my bills and feed myself.

Unfortunately, there’s a lot of competition in the affiliate marketing world. The general rule is that if you’ve struck gold with a keyword, it’s best practice to keep it to yourself.

However, I am launching a case study website to demonstrate to my readers how these sites get launched and how they grow.

Active, long-term clients are told the URLs of my successful sites to help them learn and replicate the strategies I have used.

Does SEO work for local businesses?

Absolutely yes! SEO is an excellent organic marketing technique for small and local businesses.
Neighbourhood-level and even street-level Google searches are increasing, so it really is time for local businesses to make the most of this free traffic that Google sends you!

What SEO tools do you use?

I use a variety of free and paid-for website and SEO analytical tools.

These may include (but not limited to):
Google Analytics
Google Search Console
SEMRush
Ahrefs
Screaming Frog
Moz
Page Speed Insights
Google Search Results Page
Keywords Everywhere
Google Keyword Planner
Keysearch
BuiltWith
Chrome Developer Tools

Many of these tools you can use yourself and some of these are even free. I’m completely transparent with my process and how I use these tools.

However, I’m able to give valuable insight in the results given by these tools, explain what it all means and which areas to focus on.

What fees do you charge?

Fees and estimates depend on the scale and the volume of the website’s content.

Ad hoc SEO support & consultancy is between £75 – £125 per hour depending on the size of your website.

SEO monthly packages for a website with under 500 pages start at £750.

20% UK VAT is applicable to all fees.

Please get in touch for a chat about your budget.

I need help with my website RIGHT NOW!

Stay calm and get in touch. Please don’t panic, there’s almost nothing in WordPress that can’t be fixed or restored!

If you don’t have a maintenance package, or your package doesn’t include support time, please do get in touch anyway as I may still be able to help without you.

What My Clients Say

A year ago, I had my original website redesigned by another developer, but it never fully reached my expectations. Sarah worked to improve the SEO performance, redesigned the contact information portal, and finessed the design throughout the site. I have seen a marked improvement in the referrals within a few weeks of the updates. And the contact portal works flawlessly now.

Sarah is a pleasure to work with and she even provided additional information above and beyond what she originally was contracted for. If I could give a 10-star review I would. I highly recommend Sarah.

Stewart

Creative Audio Works

Sarah was incredibly helpful in setting up a new website. She was very knowledgeable, fast and professional throughout. She even made a bespoke video so I would be able to manage the back-end of the website myself in future. Can’t thank her enough.

Ruth

Ruth Garnault Consultancy

I highly recommend Sarah! She is a wealth of knowledge around website creation. She understood exactly what we needed and worked with our budget to create an amazing site. She is patient and supportive and I can’t thank her enough for the hours she put into helping develop our business. Thank you!
