Our SEO service for Trades businesses
01 Keyword Research
We use Semrush to find the exact search terms your customers type into Google in your local area. We focus on terms with real demand and a realistic chance of ranking, so the work we do shows up in the searches that actually bring in enquiries.
02 Website Build
A brand-new website is included as standard. No templates, no shortcuts. We build it from scratch on Wix Studio around your business and your customers. Fast loading, mobile-friendly, with clear ways for visitors to call, message, or book you.
03 GBP Optimisation
Your Google Business Profile is the listing in Google Maps and the local '3 pack' at the top of search results. For most trades businesses, it's the single biggest source of phone calls. We set it up properly, optimise it, and keep it updated.
04 Local SEO
Every page on your website has one job, to rank for a specific local search term. Service pages, location pages, and monthly blog posts each target different searches in your area, so you appear wherever your customers are looking on Google.
05 Link Building
We build links from other reputable websites pointing back to yours every month. Google treats those links as votes of confidence, so the more good sites that link to you, the higher you rank. We don't buy cheap links, we earn them properly.
06 Reporting
Plain English monthly reports showing what we did, your current rankings, and where the enquiries are coming from. Google Search Console screenshots, no confusing charts. You also get a WhatsApp group with both founders to ask questions any time.

Frequently asked questions about SEO in Cheshire
What's the difference between Local SEO and National SEO?
Local SEO targets people searching with a location in their query ("driveway installer Crewe", "builder near Knutsford") or people searching from a specific place. National SEO targets people searching without a location ("conservatory roof replacement cost"). Most trades businesses need local SEO. Some, like specialists who'll travel anywhere in the UK, need both. We'll build whichever your business actually needs.
What does a Cheshire SEO agency actually do?
Three things, broadly:
1. Build you a website (if you need one) that's properly set up for Google to rank.
2. Get that website ranking for the search terms your customers use in your area.
3. Keep improving it every month through new content, technical fixes, and links from other reputable websites.
Do you only work with Cheshire businesses?
No. We're based in Congleton, Cheshire, but we work with trades businesses right across the UK. Current clients are in Northamptonshire, the Midlands, Surrey, London, and elsewhere. The approach is the same no matter where you are.
