SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation, which is the process of improving the quantity and quality of traffic to your website from natural search results by ranking a website or piece of content higher on Google. The key difference between SEO and Google Ads is that you are visible in a non-paid area instead of having to bid for clicks to your website. Consumers are more likely to trust links that aren’t ads whilst natural search results are seen as the most trusted area to deliver the most relevant answers to their search.
Great question that we are asked on a regular basis due to other companies within our industry unfortunately holding clients to ransom should they ever want to up and leave.
I’m glad to say that you will own the website, and should we ever do the unthinkable and let any of our clients down we would be more than happy to send the files over on an email for you to upload to another server.
To date this hasn’t happened to us and that is the way we wish to keep it however, the website is yours, you paid for it after all.
We believe no-one knows your business better than you.
That’s why we prefer it when you provide the words and pictures for your site.
However, we do a number of things to make this easier for you…
We have access to thousands of stock images, videos, and animations at very reasonable fees, usually just a few pounds each.
We’ll send you links for you to search and choose them.
If you need bespoke copywriting, photography, animation, video, or graphics just ask and we’ll arrange an estimate.
Our responsive website bundles start from just £595.
Take a look at our website packages and learn more about the likely investment required.
Our guide gives indications of what our clients typically spend, those clients being established SME businesses with a solid amount of content.
We can get you started for less, it all depends on your aims for the website.
Sometimes a simple, single page website will be the best way to get online quickly with a limited budget however this is not recommended should you wish the new site to rank highly on Google.
Our team aim to have all brochure websites online with 15 working days with many online sooner.
Much will depend on the client as some will be very responsive and others less so.
E-Commerce projects along with custom designs will vary in timescales which are provided during the discovery stage.
Your website can be built either using a WordPress premium theme if you are looking for something cost effective to get you online or we can develop something completely bespoke and unique to you.
Much will depend on the type of services you offer and the type of clients you are looking to attract.
We were recently hired to create a website for a luxury clinic and a brochure website using a theme simply wouldn’t have been able to set the type of high-end tone our client was after whereas our local roofers or electricians for example are perfectly happy with a brochure and let their images do a lot of the talking.
The simple answer is yes, we do offer custom build websites and even work with recruitment companies who simply require something a little more specialist.
Our team of SEO gurus have been delivering SEO to local businesses across the UK since 2005, and we have developed a fantastic reputation.
We have a real passion and desire to help others succeed online and we are often seen as a safe pair of hands due to our ethical process, cost effectiveness and proven track record.
Other SEO agencies are not owner-operated and are driven by different values.
AWG are independently owned which opens up direct access to our team and ensures that our DNA remains strong within every single account.
Whether you are a client paying entry level fee’s or our highest investors you will all be treated the same.
SEO should be seen as a long-term strategy however, we appreciate that companies can’t continue to invest good sums of money forever, without getting some tangible results and return on investment.
We work on the basis that we will show you clear signs of progression with search results each month for your investment.
How quickly or not this will take will be based on many things like if your website has any history or unknown to Google, whether you have any current ranking or authority within Google and how competitive the keywords and locations are for example.
Sometimes we have clients that see results within weeks whereas others can take months. The first 6 months is always going to start off slow however, the investments you make now will pay dividends in the future.
A basic explanation of this is that backlinks are links from higher authority websites back to yours.
Backlinks are important as they contribute to the website’s authority and how Google scores your website.
Generally we see websites that have strong authority (On the basis it has good content and technically sound) have a much better chance of ranking highly within Google and will see increased traffic via the organic search results.
The key thing though is that the backlinks you have must be from websites that are high in quality, relevant to your industry and have high authority themselves.
Always focus on quality backlinks not quantity.
When you decide to instruct us as your SEO partner, we’ll have an initial meeting with you to fully understand your business, key objectives, targets, current marketing and more.
Our team will prioritise becoming familiar with your industry and customers through researching the market, competitors and keywords.
Once we’ve agreed on a monthly strategy we can get started straight away and report back to you within one month with what work has been done and progress made for months one investment.
Having worked for some great agencies before we formed Ask Web Guru it was obvious to me that the best digital agencies were simply out of reach for local businesses due to the huge price tags (many not entertaining any budget under £1,500 per month) and the ones that businesses could afford were unethical and simply just sold sizzle, rarely delivering.
Being small shouldn’t mean having to settle for second best so we try to ensure that our service delivers the best results possible whilst not breaking the bank.
On average our clients invest £500 per month however, we have clients investing less and others more.
Before we can propose a fee, first we need to learn more about your business, what you are looking to achieve and more.
Please have a meeting with us and whether you join us or not you’ll have more knowledge about your current SEO status than before.
