SEO, speed and accessibility
Practical work that helps people and search engines understand and use the site. No guarantees, because nobody can give them.
Search visibility is mostly unglamorous. Pages that exist for the things people actually type, a site fast enough not to be abandoned, a structure Google can crawl, and content that answers the question rather than circling it.
Speed and accessibility are part of the same job. A site that is hard for a screen reader is usually hard for a search engine, and a page that takes six seconds on a phone loses visitors before any of the clever work matters.
We will not promise a position on Google, because anybody who does is either guessing or lying. What we can do is remove the reasons a page is not being found and show you the difference in your own Search Console.
How the work runs
- Measure first. Speed, indexed pages, accessibility and current visibility, recorded before anything is touched so the effect can be judged.
- Fix what blocks. Pages that cannot be indexed, redirects that chain, images many times larger than needed. The unglamorous causes first.
- Improve what exists. Titles, descriptions, headings and internal links on the pages that already have a chance of ranking.
- Submit and watch. Sitemap submitted, priority pages requested, and results checked rather than assumed.

Where we have done this
Real client sites, not mock-ups. Open any of them and judge for yourself.
Common questions
The things people ask before they commit, answered plainly.
- Can you guarantee page one?
- No, and neither can anyone else. Google decides. What is controllable is whether your pages can be found, understood and loaded quickly, and that is what we work on.
- How long before it makes a difference?
- Technical fixes can show within days once pages are recrawled. Content and authority take months. Anyone promising fast results on competitive terms is selling something.
- Is accessibility a legal requirement?
- For public sector bodies in the UK, yes. For private businesses the Equality Act creates a duty to make reasonable adjustments, and the practical position is that an inaccessible site excludes customers and performs worse in search.
- Do you do ongoing SEO?
- The care plans include technical checks and crawl submissions. Sustained content-led SEO is a bigger commitment and quoted separately, because doing it badly is worse than not doing it.
