SEO for Christchurch Businesses

Being Found by People Who Are Ready to Buy

When someone in Christchurch searches for what you do, most of them only look at the first few results. SEO is the work of making sure your business is one of them: a website Google can understand, a complete Google Business Profile, and reviews and details that match everywhere you appear online.

We do this for small businesses in plain English. You see what we found, what we changed and what is worth doing next, with no jargon and no long contracts.

What We Do

• Technical check of your site: speed, mobile layout, broken links, page titles, descriptions, headings and structured data
• Local SEO: a complete, accurate Google Business Profile and consistent business details across the web
• Service and area pages written for the searches your customers actually use, such as your trade and suburb
• Reviews: a simple way to ask happy customers for Google reviews and how to reply to them
• Tracking with Google Search Console and Google Analytics, so you can see which searches bring people to your site
• A short written summary of what was found, what we fixed and what to do next

What to Expect

SEO is slow and honest work. A new page can take weeks to be indexed and months to build up, and where you rank depends on competition, reviews and how long your site has been live. Anyone who guarantees a number one position cannot back it up, so we do not promise one.

What we can promise is that nothing technical is holding your site back, that your details are right everywhere Google looks, and that you will know what is working because we show you the numbers.

Pricing

SEO work varies a lot between a five page site and a business with several services and areas, so we quote it after a free assessment, in writing, before any work starts. The basic SEO foundations are already included in every website we build from $2,000 +GST. If your site is already built, we can review it and quote only for the work it needs.

Who It Suits

Local businesses that rely on being found online, such as trades, clinics, cleaners and professional services. It works best alongside a website that is fast and clear, which is why we often look at both together.

Common Questions

SEO means making it easier for Google to find your business and show it to people searching for what you do. For a local business that includes your website, your Google Business Profile and your reviews.

Can you get my business to number one on Google?

No one can honestly guarantee that. We make sure your site and listings are set up properly and show you which searches bring people in, but rankings depend on competition, reviews and how long your site has been live.

How long does SEO take to work?

Usually weeks for Google to pick up changes and a few months to see steady results. Local searches can move faster than broad ones.

We quote after a free assessment, because it depends on your site and the services and areas you want to be found for. The basic SEO foundations are already included in every website we build.

Yes. We are based in Canterbury and work with businesses across New Zealand, remotely where that makes sense.
