Frequently asked questions
We perform a mix of digital marketing services—SEO, content, digital strategy, and some project management to bring it all together. Keep it simple - we get your website found, we bring more organic traffic to your website, and we lend some credibility to your online presence.
It depends. I know, I know, that’s not the answer you were looking for but the fact is that costs really do depend on what you need and the scope of the project. We generally build custom packages – small business, big brands, something in the middle – there’s always a way to work within your budget. Want an actual number? Shoot us a line and we’ll provide a free quote.
Short answer? No. In fact, if anyone promises you the #1 spot then they’re probably just trying to sell you something, rather than being upfront with you. What we can say is that we will always use the most ethical and up-to-date methods to improve your visibility and organic traffic. And we do it really well.
SEO takes time. That’s the unfortunate truth. It’s more of an investment than a flick of a switch. In general most people start to see movement from 3–6 months, but it really does depend on your industry, your competition, and where you’re starting from.
Pretty much, yes. We’ve worked with everyone from one-man operations and small local businesses to larger, international clients. eCommerce, healthcare, finance – we’ve probably had a play at all of those at some point or another. The great thing about every business is that they’re all unique in their own way. That’s what makes it interesting.
You’d think I’d have this answer memorized by now, but it really depends on who you ask. But in a nutshell, it’s how we work behind the scenes. We work with data, not gut instincts, and we customize our plans around you, rather than trying to force every client into the same cookie-cutter framework. The team members have worked in the SEO space for an average of 20 years, and we have a pretty good idea about what works—and what doesn’t. And lastly, we believe in transparency. It’s that simple.
Technical SEO is the stuff of your website that no one is typically conscious of, but that underpins everything and makes your site work. It’s the architecture, page speed, and coding that allows search engines to crawl your site and understand your content. Think of it as a foundation. Build a good one, and everything else you do for SEO stands a much better chance of working well. Build a bad one, and your site will struggle to perform, even with the best content and strategy.
You look at your numbers. Data isn’t feelings, and to track our clients’ progress, we monitor traffic, keyword rankings, movement, conversions, and other standard metrics through our tools such as Google Analytics and Search Console. If those reports aren’t trending in a positive direction over time, your current strategy may need to be revisited.
Yes, you will receive a monthly report that will include: traffic information, keyword rankings, any changes made, improvements made, and any new additions to your SEO plan. No fluffy, high-level summary.
Yes. If you’d like to chat about your goals, struggles, frustrations, or anything in between, we are more than happy to set up a call to discuss. No commitment, no pressure, just a conversation to see if we are the right fit.
Our content process begins with the usual – research, brainstorming and a lot of SEO. We write for two audiences: real humans and search engines. The ideal outcome is a combination of both: great content that readers will want to engage with and also has a chance of ranking.
We fix it. We troubleshoot. We reassess. We find a solution together. We are not that type of agency where we sign a contract and disappear for the next 12 months. At EcoSEO, if there is a problem, we will work with you to resolve it.
Yes, we do, in fact, local SEO is one of our favourite niches. We help local businesses rank in their target regions, so whether that’s optimising for Google My Business, local keywords, directory listings, etc. We do it. It’s also incredibly helpful if you are a business that relies on local customers.
Yep, this is a regular occurrence that we help many with. We will look at your site and determine exactly what caused this issue and build a recovery plan. We then develop a recovery strategy to bring your rankings back from this penalty.
SEO is our core business however we are aware a good website is the first step to having good SEO. As such, we work closely with a team of experts that provide website design and development that help you achieve your business goals. The strategy is simple…your website should look great, load quickly, and be easily crawled.
We prefer to keep things simple and flexible. We offer month-to-month terms as well as longer term agreements if you are happy to commit and it suits your business requirements.
To be honest, we have worked with most. We have been heavily involved in eCommerce, healthcare, real estate and finance but some of our favourite have been the smaller, and unusual, industries. The secret is the strategies we help with are never one-size-fits-all.
Google love to change things and will sometimes do it overnight. This can have an impact on SEO. The only way to combat this is to read, test and keep a sharp eye on it. We have numerous strategies in place so when an algorithm update is noticed by us (usually before it hits) we know you are not blindsided by it and can make adjustments to your strategy as and when.
We use tools such as SEMrush, Ahrefs, Google Analytics and Moz. We find these help in determining what is happening on your website and in your industry. They are no silver bullet however they are extremely helpful in providing the information you need to make educated decisions.
Easy, visit our contact us page or give us a call and we will set up a time to have a free consultation where we discuss your business goals and get you a plan that makes sense for you.
