Transparent optimisation

Give before you take SEO

Sustainable search visibility starts with clean markup, honest content, and first-party measurement. We show you how to register, audit, and improve your site before we ever pitch retainers.

Evidence-led audits

We start with log analysis, Core Web Vitals, and schema validation so every recommendation is tied to measurable impact.

On-page clarity

Accessible markup, descriptive headings, and purposeful internal links help users and crawlers at the same time.

Analytics you own

Matomo or GA4 are deployed with full configuration notes so you can operate legally within the UK and EU/EEA.

1. Register your property

Submit your site to the major search consoles before changing code. Ownership verification puts crawl, performance, and coverage data at your fingertips.

  • Verify domain property in Google Search Console using DNS (preferred) or HTML file.
  • Submit to Bing Webmaster Tools and Yandex (where applicable) for wider coverage.
  • Generate XML sitemaps and reference them in `robots.txt`.

2. Fix core technical issues

Focus on crawl efficiency, speed, and structured data. These fundamentals underpin every campaign.

  • Ensure each template has a single, descriptive `<h1>` and meaningful metadata (title, description).
  • Implement Open Graph and Twitter Cards so shares look intentional.
  • Audit Core Web Vitals (LCP, FID, CLS) and set performance budgets per template.
  • Add schema.org JSON-LD for products, FAQs, articles, or services as appropriate.

3. Build a content engine

Search intent matters. Align articles, landing pages, and support content with the questions customers actually ask.

  • Use Google Trends and Search Console queries to identify real demand.
  • Structure answer-led content (intro, solution, evidence, CTA).
  • Link internally using descriptive anchor text to reinforce topic clusters.
  • Monitor conversions (not just visits) to prove value to stakeholders.

Start your own optimisation loop

Enter your domain and jump straight to Google Search Console. We prefill the URL so you can verify ownership and start collecting crawl data immediately.

Tip: add both the root domain and key subdomains (e.g. `https://app.example.com`). Submit updated sitemaps after every major release.
