Posted on Google Hannah MaddenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The google expert was the only agency I could find that specialised in building websites that not only look good but are built with marketing in mind. I researched numerous web developers who built amazing looking websites but none of them focus on SEO, rankings or building leads. For this reason I chose James and his team and the results I have achieved have proven it was the best decision I could have made. Great communication, fast turnaround and competitive pricing, I would highly recommend James services to any business owner.

Working with The Digital Marketing Guru has to merit a 5 start rating, the type Of business I have although well established requires a constant stream of new clients in a saturated market, so even though I had a good website no body was looking at it! I engaged the services of James and within a few months my website rankings were elevated and also generated more relevant clients Providing great communication and understanding of my business plus affordable pricing I can’t recommend enough Thank you JulietPosted on Google Amy RamsdenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Lead Generators...
Whilst any SEOs can build high-quality links, or offer technical fixes that are said to be ‘box tickers’ in optimisation, few are able to commercially attack search engines and AI in a way that generates you actual leads on mass.

We also choose to work with a select number of businesses. This way, we can focus on getting your optimisation where it needs to be, in both where it can be found, and how it can convert when you get your relevant traffic.

SEO FAQs
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all SEO or box-ticking monthly packages. We work as an extension of your marketing team, taking time to understand your business, customers, competitors and commercial goals before building a bespoke SEO strategy around them.
You’ll work with the same experienced team throughout, with a relationship-led approach focused on generating meaningful rankings, enquiries and revenue, not simply completing an agency checklist.
Yes, of course! Although SEO is much more than that. You can rank for more than one keyword, rank in AI, rank you localy… it all depends on budget, competition, website quality and drive to out perform everyone else, of which we have in abundance!
This can depend on your personal goals, your budget, the market you are in and your current state of affairs. Upon initial conversations we will do a fact find so that we can work out what the best strategies may work for you based on the above mentions.
If you are looking for a quick fix to bring in business, then SEO is not the right strategy for you, if you are looking for a more sustainable, longer-term, higher-quality marketing, then yes, SEO could work for you. Get in touch to learn more
Not necessarily.
We’ll first assess your existing website from an SEO, technical, content and conversion perspective. If it provides a strong enough foundation, we can work with what you already have.
If the website itself is preventing you from ranking or converting visitors into enquiries, we’ll explain what needs improving.
Because we work across both SEO and web design, our recommendations aren’t restricted by one service, we can look at the entire customer journey and recommend what will actually benefit the business.
Yes we can.
Search is evolving through platforms such as Google’s AI results and AI assistants, so our approach now considers how search engines and AI systems understand your business, expertise, content and wider online authority.
We incorporate this into the wider SEO strategy rather than treating AI optimisation as a separate box-ticking exercise, helping strengthen your visibility wherever your customers increasingly search for information and recommendations.
Absolutely.
We regularly work alongside developers, internal marketing teams and other specialist partners.
Our approach is to become an extension of your existing marketing team, so if you already have trusted developers we can identify the SEO requirements, explain what needs implementing and work directly with them to get it done correctly.
There’s no need to replace good existing relationships simply because you’ve brought us in for SEO.
This may depend on a few factors, your competition, your budget, your cooperation, how good your website is to start off with, to name a few variables. Generally speaking, SEO is a medium to long-term marketing strategy, although it takes longer than other strategies to reap better value for money. If you require a fast turnaround strategy then it would be useful for us to have an initial chat, so that we can work out what’s best for your ambitions and needs. For example, a local SEO Altrincham campaign could be pretty quick, but a national campaign would be more of a long-term thing.
If you are more comfortable doing this then go ahead, if it works for you!
Generally speaking, SEOs who go in house aren’t as efficient as those who work in agencies, as they pay grade is generally lower.
Plus the trouble of employing people and paying insurance and tax and having potential fall out risks seems daunting in this day and age as employees gain more and more power.Â
We try and combat this issue by providing a relationhsip based approach so we feel an extention of your team, even though we are technically an outsourced service, with this you can get the best of both offerings with your SEO goals!
It all depends what works best for your company and situation.
