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. Hannah

James is genuinely one of the best people I know when it comes to digital marketing. He knows how to get results and isn’t about shortcuts or empty promises. He takes the time to understand your goals and builds a strategy that actually makes sense. If you want someone who knows digital marketing inside out, James is a safe bet.

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 Juliet

Why a better website pays for itself

Same traffic. Same ad spend. Three times the enquiries.

Most web developers build a website and hand it over. It might look great, but it was never designed to sell. I build websites from a commercial point of view, because your website has one job: to turn visitors into enquiries.

A typical website

100 people visit

2pick up the phone or enquire
The other 98 leave, often to a competitor.
A website built to convert

The same 100 people visit

6pick up the phone or enquire
Three times the leads, without spending a penny more on traffic.
Spend £500 on Google Ads to bring 100 people to your site, and your cost per enquiry is:
Typical website£250
Built to convert£83
A clear offer, instantlyVisitors know what you do and why to choose you within seconds.
Trust signals everywhereReviews, case studies and accreditations where people look for them.
Easy to contactClick-to-call, WhatsApp and short forms that work on mobile.
Fast loadingSlow sites lose visitors before they even see your offer.
Built for GoogleSEO from day one, so the right people find you in the first place.
Every lead trackedCalls and forms measured, so you know exactly what is working.

Illustrative example. Real conversion rates vary by industry, offer and traffic source.

That means your website is built with your wider marketing goals in mind, creating a platform that’s ready to grow alongside your business.

Launching your website is just the beginning.

Every business is different. That’s why we start by understanding your goals, customers and opportunities before recommending the right marketing strategy. Our process is designed to remove guesswork, focus your budget and deliver measurable growth.

Lead Generators...

Whilst many designers and developers create attractive, functional websites, we focus on building websites that generate leads and grow businesses.
