SEO Marketing Services

One of the things that many people don't like about digital marketing is the number of acronyms the industry uses. SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation, or to put it another way, methods used to help your website and pages on your website appear higher in the search results across Google, Bing and other search engines. It is also about getting your site found for additional search queries that are relevant to your business and about amplifying all of the above so that your content is being found more often and that other websites link to your content to add authority to your website and business.

Paid Media and Paid Social Media

We offer a range of options in the paid media space across Google, Bing, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and other social media platforms. 

Paid media is about finding the right audience at the right times in the right locations to enable the highest possible chance of converting the consumer onsite. We can help with implementation of tracking tags on site to make sure that you are tracking your customer end-to-end, where possible. 

The team have extensive knowledge of all paid media activities and have managed single client budgets of £700,000 per annum, although we are happy to take on clients of all sizes and budgets. 

Branding

If you're looking to set up a business, a re-brand or refresh of your current branding then we can help create a brand that identifies with your customer while making sure it stands out for your competitors. Branding is everything in business and it helps defines who you are as a business but also who you are to your consumers. The wrong brand can be a disaster while the right branding can bring in a steady stream of new customers and helps you communicate your message with more clarity across all digital channels.
