What the work involves
I work alone. That is a deliberate choice, not a limitation. When you contact me, I respond. When we agree on an approach, I carry it out. There is no account manager between you and the person doing the work, no handover between a salesperson and a developer, no junior handed your project after the kickoff call. Every decision is mine to own.
All my work is handled remotely, and in practice that means faster responses and no time lost to unnecessary meetings. I have worked with clients across the UK remotely for over 10 years. The experience for a Birmingham client is no different to that of a client in Telford or anywhere else. You get direct access to the person doing the work, and that is consistently more straightforward than working through agency layers regardless of where those agencies are based.
Common questions
The first layer is technical, and most businesses don't know there's a problem until I look. A site can appear perfectly functional while quietly underperforming in search: pages that load too slowly to hold attention, content that search engines can't read properly, or basic signals about your business that are either missing or contradicting each other across the site. On a new build, I take care of all of this from the start. On an existing site, I audit first and fix in order of what's causing the most damage.
On-page SEO is the content layer. It involves writing page titles that accurately describe what each page is about, structuring headings in a logical order, and making sure the content on each page answers the questions your customers are actually searching for rather than the ones you assume they're searching for. For a Birmingham business, it also means including local signals in the right places: service area references, content specific to the area, and consistent business information across every page. The aim is not to repeat "Birmingham" as many times as possible. It is to build a coherent, accurate picture of what your business does and who it serves.
Google Business Profile is where local search rankings are often decided. The map results that appear above organic listings for service searches are driven primarily by your GBP listing and the local signals connected to it. Setting it up properly means verifying the listing, selecting the right business categories, completing every section including services and opening hours, adding photos, and keeping information current. Citation building, getting your business listed accurately on relevant directories and local sites, strengthens those local signals further. In a competitive market like Birmingham, this layer of work is where many businesses fall behind.
