Independent SEO Consultant
Expert SEO Services

I am a fully independent SEO consultant in Newcastle upon Tyne.

However, I have also held positions as an IT Director, Operations Director, CIO and Managing Director over my career. Because of this, I can bring my knowledge and technical skill to your business to deliver guidance, growth and profitability for both e-commerce and service focused operations through SEO and CRO services.

You don’t need to engage me for long contract SEO or e-commerce strategy projects. If you’re making a critical business decision such as the selection of an e-commerce platform, I can independently advise you and leave you to make your choice, or continue to work on a retained service basis. However, if you’re an SME needing SEO, whether one-off, short or long-term, I can help you. From keyword research to content strategy, local SEO and technical SEO, my services cover everything a business requires. Finally, my solutions are tailored to your business requirements.

Free PDF Download – Google Content Checklist
In one of my blogs, looking at “what type of content Google likes“, I have published every element that they’re currently putting a very strong emphasis on. I’ve also produced a Google Content Checklist that you can download and is directly in line with Google’s published guidance on the subject.
Why use an independent SEO consultant instead of an SEO agency?
Firstly, I take more time to understand your business and you receive far greater and consistent communication. Furthermore, my technical skills and commercial experience are a significant factor for many clients, as I deliver more than they’ve been used to from agencies or other SEO providers.
I have worked with some of the biggest brands in the world, been a trusted consultant to UK central government and owned an SEO and digital agency. I know the way agencies operate and you benefit from being in direct contact with me. You receive all the advantages of my decades of experiences with none of the delays or exposure to junior or less experienced staff that are commonplace in dealing with an SEO agency.
E-commerce SEO Consultant
If you operate an e-commerce site that isn’t delivering the revenues you expect, contact me to ask how I can help. I have extensive SEO knowledge of Shopify, Woocommerce, Adobe Commerce, Big Commerce, Zen Cart, Presta Shop, Umbraco Commerce and many other common ecommerce systems.
I’ve spent decades working in SEO with commercial expertise that makes a huge difference. I can apply my technical skills and SEO expertise with my business knowledge, delivering major growth for businesses. You’ll find my approach is professional and that I understand business challenges. In summary, I’m able to give you an independent SEO service that fits any size of site, from launch to the most established e-commerce sites.
