The results have exceeded our expectations.

The whole process was straightforward and they took the pains away from managing the project. Matt and his team took the creative lead and used the information we provided to create a great website.

Their attention to detail was absolutely fantastic.

So many website designers create a website that looks great, but does not initiate the customer to create action. AkW really understood this process and realise that an effective website needs to create an enquiry or a sale.

SEO basics

SEO dictionary - everything you want to know

We take the unknown of SEO services with a transparent strategy that will efficiently improve your rankings.

Here’s a little SEO dictionary that you can always come back to:

Organic traffic is determined by the number of visitors that land on the web page through search engines without the usage of paid advertising.

It’s the most important indicator of an SEO strategy. According to Ahrefs.com, 90.63% (847,833,932!) of web pages get no organic search traffic from Google at all. Hence, SEO focuses on growing organic traffic to your website by optimising and creating a high-quality, relevant content as well as consistent updates and improvements of the overall website.

Keywords are words, sentences or questions that people type into search engine bars to look for the information, product or service.

There is a very low chance that potential customers know your domain or your company’s name. Instead, prospects use phrases that describe their needs. Hence, determining the most powerful keyword (researched the most times per month) relevant to your business and properly optimising the website to be recognised and valued for that term by algorithms is a part of SEO strategy.

Analysing keywords, its’ difficulty in ranking and creating original, non-repetitive content with the right amount of keyword density (read: avoiding keyword stuffing) is a part of SEO strategy.

The typical goal of our clients is to show up on the first page of google search results, as 96% of online shoppers never go as far as the 2nd page.

PPC stands for pay per click and is an online advertising method where the advertiser pays a fee each time someone clicks the ad.

Google Ads is the most popular platform where you can create and condition ads for your website and bid the price per click. Google ads targets keywords that your potential clients type in, so it’s crucial to conduct the research and optimise your advertising for the most relevant phrases. Google Ads will appear above the organic search results with the AD symbol next to the title of the ad.

Search results are a listing of pages (links) created and displayed by a search engine that are relevant to the query typed in the search bar.

There are two types of search results - organic and sponsored (advertisement).

To determine which page is the most relevant to the query (keyword), search engines use boots and algorithms that crawl through web pages, read their coded content and rank them accordingly. The most informative, related and user-friendly web pages are ranked on top of search results.

The average web user never goes past the top 5 listings on a search result, and more than 90% of online searchers never reach the second page of Google. Hence, the goal of SEO is to work on showcasing your website as valuable and relevant to increase visibility in search results.

SEO FAQs

What is SEO?

SEO stands for search engine optimization and is the most effective marketing process that increases awareness of your brand on search engines like Google, Bing, and DuckDuckGo.

In simple terms, SEO represents the digital marketing processes (both internal and external) of improving and optimising the webpage so that you increase its visibility in search engines when prospective clients look for a product or service related to your business.

Google uses over 200 ranking factors to assign the position of a webpage within results pages. To determine which page is the most relevant to the query (keyword), search engines use boots and algorithms that crawl through web pages, read their coded content and rank them accordingly. The most informative, related and user-friendly web pages are ranked on top of search rsults.

There are many different methods that can help improve your search presence, all of which depend on your goals, current rankings, competition and keywords difficulty.

Our SEO agency implements strategic practices on your website and creates long-form, informational content that is optimised for desired keywords but also, easily adaptable by humans. Hence, we boost the exposure of your website to highly motivated prospects (read: people that already search for your services or products on search engines).

How much does SEO cost?

Our SEO packages start at £500/month and can exceed £2,500/month, depending on your competition, situation and the work we need to put in to assist you in optimising your pages for success. During our onboarding, we will overview your goals, current ranking and other factors to help us choose the most effective plan suitable for your business. Our month-to-month payment plans have a flexible cancellation policy. To review our plans, click HERE.

How long does it take to see results from SEO?

SEO processes and the creation of long-form, keyword-optimised require both technical and creative skills as well as time. Additionally, it can take up to 28 days for search engines ONLY to recognise and index improvements and changes performed by us on your web pages.

Moving up the ladder and competing with businesses that have been implementing SEO strategies for a long time doesn’t happen overnight.

On top of your competition, there are thousands of ranking factors, like the authority of the domain, keywords, optimised content and many more. In most scenarios, it takes anywhere from 3-6 months to start seeing results from SEO. Though for competitive industries like legal, investments or the building industry, it can take between 6-12 months to start outranking your industry rivals.

To estimate how quickly you could expect the results from our Search Engine Optimization services, we start with the audit of your current website and your competition.

Should I invest in SEO?

Yes! The most important task of SEO is to increase the visibility of your website which represents your business and showcases the products/services you offer. In other words, the higher you rank on search engines, the more traffic and potential customers see you!

Around 95% of online consumers look no further than the first page of search results. Hence, if your website listing doesn’t appear in those first 10 positions, the website won’t bring you any organic traffic. If your goal is to grow your business (and if you look up SEO, you certainly do), it is crucial to set a goal and work towards the top.

Will my website include SEO?

All our websites include on-page technical SEO, meaning we will make sure all the components on your website will be visible and readable for search engines like Google or Bing. We can also help in creating long-form written content for your new platform so it has a better kick-start. Keep in mind that it won’t assure a position on the first page of search results. In more aggressive industries you may need to invest in a monthly SEO strategy to get there.

Can you get me to #1 on Google?

We’ll work hard to get you to the best possible position, and we have past clients that we assisted in getting to the top #3 positions on Google for related keywords. From our experience, optimising your website for the right keywords and getting to the first 3-5 listings is already enough to bring you a stream of organic traffic and a healthy ROI. People tend to shop around and choose the most compelling offer even online.

Ranking on top of Google for competitive keywords is possible but requires much more time and resources. If the #1 position is possible for the right terms within your budget, then we’ll give it everything to get you there.Contact us, to get insights into your current situation.

What results can I expect from working with akW?

We’re obsessed with SEO and meaningful content creation and strive to bring measurable and transparent results to every client. We provide monthly SEO reports and quarterly strategy overviews, so you can have insights into progress and an outline of the completed work.

During our onboarding, we’ll go through our SEO processes, predictions and results you expected from us. SEO takes time and is usually a long-term game, hence our focus is on bringing clear and transparent solutions tailored to your goals and needs.

Will my results drop if I stop investing in SEO?

That hugely depends on your business and competition. If your business is niched-down and you only work locally, a basic optimisation and descriptive, optimised content may be enough to assure a stable stream of organic traffic and enquiries/orders for years.

On the other hand, if your SEO campaign is national or international and your competition is fearless, your position may be either quickly over ranked or gradually drop in search results. For most businesses, SEO is a constant, yet well-paid-off investment.

Do you offer PPC services?

Yes, we do offer Google Ads services, but we highly advise using them as a part of online marketing, rather than relying on your traffic on a PPC strategy.

Will I receive reporting from you?

Yes, every freaking month! We provide monthly SEO reports and quarterly strategy overview meetings outlining progress and work completed on our end. On top of that, at the beginning of our collaboration, we will conduct and share an audit of your platform and its rankings so you can later compare the results.

Does your website design service include SEO?

Our website and e-commerce design solutions do include on-page fundamental SEO, meaning we will make sure all the components on your website will be visible and readable for search engines like Google or Bing. Hence, if you designed your website with us and want to re-invest in it with our SEO services, the set-up jumpstart fee doesn't apply to you (unless someone seriously messed up with our initial settings).

We have a limited budget, will you still work with us?

We work with a range of clients - from start-ups to established businesses. Although our packages start from £500/month + the initial set-up fee, the price is not set in stone. We love to get inspired and work with like-minded business owners and sole traders. The easiest way to find out if we’ll work with you is to share your vision and inform us about your budget! If we won’t be able to help, we’ll be more than happy to advise you on the best ways to increase your online traffic within the total spend.

How do I get started?
