SEO FAQs

Everything you need to know about rankings, traffic and long-term search growth.

Search engine optimisation is a long-term investment. Here we answer the most common questions around pricing, timeframes, local SEO, reporting and measurable return.

Do you only work with local businesses?

While this page focuses on our local area, we work with businesses across the UK. The approach remains the same, with adjustments made for each location and level of competition.

What’s the difference between local SEO services and packages?

Local SEO services describe the overall approach and methods we use. Packages define how much optimisation is delivered each month and how the work is structured.

Are there any hidden costs?

No. Pricing is transparent and fixed per package, plus VAT. SEO packages run on a monthly basis and continue until you choose to pause or cancel. There are no surprise fees or unclear deliverables.

What happens if I need more advanced SEO or optimisation?

When projects move beyond package-based SEO, such as large-scale optimisation, CRO, or advanced experimentation, work continues through our parent brand, Ascensor.

This ensures more complex requirements receive the depth, time, and specialist resource they need without stretching the SEO packages beyond their intended scope.

Can I upgrade or downgrade my package?

Yes. Packages are flexible and can be adjusted as your priorities change. If you need to scale up or reduce activity, your account manager will help move you to the most appropriate tier.

How does reporting work?

You’ll receive a clear monthly performance report showing progress against agreed priorities, including visibility, traffic trends, and the work completed.

This is reviewed during a monthly account call, where we discuss results, refine focus, and plan the next month’s activity.

What’s included in each SEO package?

Each package includes ongoing optimisation for a set number of pages, focused on local search intent, along with technical checks, performance tracking, and clear monthly reporting.

Higher tiers increase the number of pages we actively optimise each month, allowing for broader coverage across services or locations.

Web design FAQs

Find answers to common questions about our digital services and packages. Get clarity on pricing, process, timelines and what’s included in your build.

These FAQs explain how our Webflow builds work, what’s included in each package, and how we ensure your site supports real business growth.

Is SEO included in the website build?

On-page SEO best practice is included as standard, including clean structure, fast load times, and mobile optimisation.

Ongoing SEO work is delivered separately through our monthly SEO packages.

Are these websites custom or based on templates?

All websites are custom-built in Webflow, using flexible sections rather than off-the-shelf templates.


This gives you speed without sacrificing design quality or scalability.

Can we edit the website ourselves after launch?

Yes. Every site is built with an easy-to-use Webflow CMS, allowing you to update pages, blog posts, case studies, and content without relying on developers.

What do you need from us to get started?

We’ll need your brand assets, core messaging, and any existing content you’d like to reuse.

If content isn’t ready, we can help structure and refine it so the project keeps moving.

How long does a Webflow website take to build?

Most Webflow websites are launched within 5 to 10 working days, depending on the package and content readiness.

Our process is designed to move quickly without cutting corners, using proven layouts and a clear approval flow.

Digital growth & service FAQs

Answers on strategy, performance tracking and ongoing optimisation.

Beyond SEO and web design, we support businesses with structured digital growth strategies. These FAQs cover analytics, conversion optimisation, reporting and ongoing campaign management.

Will you write ad copy and create new ads?

Yes. We write and test ad copy continuously, using structured experiments so decisions are data-led.

We also align ads with landing page messaging to keep intent and conversion paths clear.

Can you help improve the landing page too?

Yes. PPC performance is heavily influenced by the landing page experience.

We’ll recommend improvements to structure, messaging, and conversion elements, and can support with CRO work where needed.

How do you report on PPC performance?

You’ll receive clear weekly and monthly reporting focused on the metrics that matter: leads or sales, cost per lead, conversion rate, and spend efficiency.

We translate performance into actions, so you always know what we’re changing and why.

How do you choose keywords and targeting?

We prioritise commercial intent. That means focusing on searches and audiences that indicate someone is ready to enquire or buy.

We also build negative keyword lists to reduce wasted spend and protect performance over time.

Do you manage Microsoft Ads and paid social too?

Yes. We can manage Microsoft Ads alongside Google Ads when it makes commercial sense (for example, if your audience is B2B).

If you also need paid social, we’ll align targeting and messaging so channels support each other rather than competing.

Do you work with existing Google Ads accounts?

Yes. We can take over an existing account, audit what’s working, and restructure where needed.

If the account is holding back performance, we’ll recommend a rebuild so reporting and optimisation are clean and reliable.

How quickly can PPC generate results?

PPC can start driving clicks immediately after launch. Meaningful optimisation typically needs a few weeks of data.

We focus on early wins first, then refine targeting and messaging as performance trends become clearer.

How much should we spend on PPC?

Your ad spend depends on your market, target locations, and how quickly you want to generate volume.

We’ll recommend a starting budget based on expected click costs and conversion rates, then adjust once we have real data.

We manage strategy, account structure, keyword and audience targeting, ad copy, bid and budget controls, and ongoing optimisation.

That includes search term reviews, negative keywords, ad tests, and landing page feedback to steadily improve cost per lead and conversion rate.
