SEO: how I work, and what it actually delivers

Just started your business? Click here

SEO explained without jargon: what makes a search find you, the two families of words, the rhythm, the measurement in Search Console — and what can honestly be promised. On quote, never without a site.

About this service

SEO is the work that makes someone typing their need find you, without paying for ads. It cannot be bought on its own: with no site, there is nothing to rank. That is why it comes after the site on the offer card, behind a big "+". Here is how I work, what I measure, and why I never promise a position.

What's included

What decides a ranking

Three things: what your page says, how your pages hold together, and how often Google comes back to read you. A page that answers one precise question, linked to its sisters, on a site the robot visits often, climbs. A page that aims at four topics at once wins none — measured on my own site.

The two families of words

The trade words ("plasterer Vaud", "office cleaning Seville") and the real-problem words ("damp patch on my ceiling", "garage cleaning"). Two different people type them, and they are two different sales. We write a page for each, never a block of links.

Rhythm, and country

Google discovers, evaluates, then places. In two cases observed in August 2026, indexing took 24 to 48 hours; that result does not guarantee the same timing for your website. Useful, distinct and well-linked pages help discovery; the number published guarantees neither crawling nor rankings. And each country gets its own page, in its own words: Google has to understand where you work.

Measured, every month

Everything is read in Search Console: queries, impressions, clicks, position, day by day. You receive those figures every month, including the ones that do not flatter, and the case studies publish theirs with the date. That is the only proof worth having — not a colourful report.

Basic SEO — £39 a month, the base

Your business name, your home page, your service in general. No argument: people find you when they look for you, and your Google profile is clean. It is the level of a serious presence, and it stays at £39 a month.

Local SEO — £199 a month

We stay on the base of your services: one page per service, written with the words your customers type ("office cleaning Seville", "plasterer Vaud"). That is how they find you. Follow-up every three or four days, audio or video calls, we improve your posts together.

Ultra SEO — on quote, from £299 a month

We go all in: several detailed pages, articles, your customers' real problems, the country and the town, day-by-day follow-up in Search Console. It is the level of the cases published here: a plasterer first for cracks, a cleaning company on page one in Seville. Priced after a conversation, in stages.

Proven in pictures, not promises

Every level is read in Google Search Console: queries, impressions, clicks, position, day by day. The screenshots below come from our account, dated, with the property name — that is what Google sees, not what we claim.

What I do not promise

A position. Nobody can guarantee one, and anyone who does is lying. What I show: indexing observed within 24-48 hours (August 2026), with no guaranteed deadline, measured speed, and dated cases — a restaurant on page one the day after going live in Piraeus, a plasterer first for cracks in French-speaking Switzerland, a cleaning company on the first page in Seville on a very contested market.

The proof, in pictures

Frequently asked questions

Why isn't SEO included in the site price?

Because it does not cost the same for a village hairdresser and a cleaning company in Seville. The site has a fixed price; SEO is priced after a conversation about your market, with a 6-month minimum.

How long before I see a result?

In two cases observed in August 2026, indexing took 24 to 48 hours; that result does not guarantee the same timing for your website. The first queries within days to weeks depending on the market: one day in Piraeus, several months in Seville. We look day by day, query by query, not at a three-month average.

Why do some agencies talk about three to six months?

Often because the starting site is slow, poorly linked, or the work is done in quarterly batches. An ultra-fast site, published at a steady rhythm and properly linked, does not wait three months to be read.

Do I need a blog?

Not necessarily. The plasterer in French-speaking Switzerland is first for cracks with intent pages and not a single article. A blog earns its place when it answers real questions and sends readers to your services; otherwise it is dead weight.
