On-page SEO

I structure your site so your local areas are correctly targeted across pages. It’s not as simple as adding “Manchester” into your text — it requires proper strategy and execution. Don’t have dedicated pages? No problem, I’ll handle it.

Citations and directories

Supporting your local pages is crucial for building trust and ranking credibility. I use a wide network of high-quality citations and directories to strengthen your visibility and authority.
