Let's Start Simple - SEO Shropshire

What even is SEO?

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation. But strip away the fancy name and it’s actually quite simple: it’s everything you do to help Google understand what your business does, where you are, and why you’re the best option for someone searching nearby.

When someone in Shrewsbury types “plumber near me” or “best bakery in Church Stretton” into Google, something decides whose website appears at the top. That something is SEO. If you’re not near the top, you’re probably not getting the call – most people never scroll past the first few results.

Good SEO isn’t about tricks or gaming the system. It’s about making your website genuinely easy for Google (and real people) to find, understand, and trust.

The Honest Truth

Why most local business websites don't rank on Google

I see the same problems come up again and again with websites that aren’t ranking. Usually it’s one (or more) of these:

  • The site loads slowly: Google penalises slow websites and so do users, who leave before the page finishes loading.
  • Nobody has told Google what the business does or where it operates: the content is too thin or too vague to rank for anything specific.
  • The Google Business Profile hasn’t been set up, or it’s been left half-finished with no photos, reviews, or proper categories.
  • The website isn’t mobile-friendly: over 70% of local searches happen on a phone, and Google knows it.
  • There’s no local signal: the site doesn’t mention towns, areas, or service regions clearly enough for Google to know who to show it to.

SEO Shropshire: What I Actually Do

Shropshire SEO Services that cover everything your business needs

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to SEO. Different businesses need different things. Here’s what I offer and, more importantly, what each one actually means for you.

on page SEO

Content, Keywords & Structure

I make sure every page on your site is clearly written and structured so Google knows exactly what you offer. That means the right words in the right places;- page titles, headings, descriptions and text content,  all working together to get you found for the searches that matter.

Local SEO

Google Business & Map Rankings

Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing people see. I set it up properly, optimise it fully, and make sure you’re appearing in the local map results for your area,  not buried on page 2 where nobody looks.

monthly management

Ongoing SEO that keeps you climbing

SEO isn’t a one-time job. Google updates its algorithm regularly, competitors change, and your business grows. Monthly management means I keep an eye on everything, constantly tracking rankings, spotting opportunities, and making improvements so you don’t slip back.

SEO Shropshire: Is this for you?

Who I work with

New Businesses Starting From Scratch

If you’re just getting started, building SEO in from day one is the smartest thing you can do. It’s far easier to rank a new site that’s been properly set up than to fix a poorly-built one years later. I’ll make sure your foundations are solid before you go live.

Got A Website But Not Ranking?

This is the most common situation I see. You’ve got a website – maybe it even looks good, but it’s not showing up on Google and enquiries are slow. I’ll find out exactly why and fix it. Sometimes the changes needed are surprisingly small.

Local Businesses Wanting More Online Visibility

You might be doing okay already, but you know there’s more business out there if only more people could find you. Whether it’s ranking in more towns, targeting more search terms, or just strengthening what you’ve got, there’s usually room to grow.
