FAQ
SEO agency FAQs
How do I choose an SEO agency in Leicester?
SEO agency choice comes down to five things: published prices, contract terms, who does the work, proof with real numbers and clear reporting. Ask every agency the same questions.
What does an SEO agency do each month?
SEO agency work each month covers technical checks, new or improved pages, Business Profile work, links and a report with a call.
How many clients does each account lead handle?
SEO account leads at our agency handle a small number of clients, so your monthly call and report get proper time.
Do you outsource the work?
SEO work for your account is done by our own team. We do not pass it to unnamed third parties.
What happens if results stall?
SEO results that stall get reviewed on the monthly call, with a written plan for what changes next. You can also leave with 30 days notice.
Do you work with other Leicester businesses in my sector?
SEO clients in the same sector and the same town are discussed before we start, so you never compete with another client for the same searches.
Can we see the work you do each month?
SEO work is logged in a shared plan and listed in your monthly report, so you can see every page changed, link earned and fix made.
