The SEO Process

The SEO Blueprint for Small Business Growth

Running a business is hard enough without guessing at SEO. I use a proven Research > Refine > Results system to build a data-driven strategy that turns your website into your best salesperson.

Your new SEO Journey is waiting for you!

Why not find out your current SEO score before you begin

Research. Refine. Results.

This isn’t a random list of tactics. It is a continuous cycle designed to find your customers, fix your site, and grow your revenue

Let’s break down what each phase means

PHASE ONE

RESEARCH

THE BLUEPRINT

We stop guessing. Before we touch a single thing on your website, I find out exactly why you aren’t ranking. I audit your site, spy on your competitors, and map out the exact keywords your customers are using to find you.

WHAT YOU GET

• Discovery Call & Strategy Session
• Full SEO Audit (Technical & Content)
• Initial baseline SEO report
• Competitor Analysis Report
• In-depth keyword research
• SEO Strategy

At this stage you’ll get an initial proposal of the Research Phase including costs.

PHASE TWO

REFINE

THE TOOLS

I repair the technical errors holding you back and optimise your content to target buyers, not just browsers. This is the implementation phase where we turn the strategy into action.

WHAT YOU GET

• Technical SEO fixes
• On-page optimisations
• Content improvements

Following the findings in Phase One, you will receive a secondary proposal including costs for this phase.

PHASE THREE

RESULTS

THE DIRECTION

SEO isn’t a one-off job. I monitor your rankings, report on the wins in plain English, and constantly tweak the strategy to keep you climbing the search results. We use the data to find new opportunities every quarter.

WHAT YOU GET

• Clear, easy-to-read SEO reports
• Recommended Actions
• New opportunities for growth
