WordPress SEO Service

My WordPress SEO service is suitable for businesses of all sizes. If you’re a start-up business or multi-national, I tailor my SEO service to your needs. I’m often asked my views on WordPress from an SEO perspective, or overall suitability for businesses. This page focuses on what my WordPress SEO service delivers. I also comment on why you’ve chosen an excellent platform for most purposes. You can obtain the Google rankings visibility you want from WordPress.

WordPress SEO service for ecommerce (Woocommerce) and informational websites – what makes me different?

I’ve been providing SEO services for WordPress sites for almost 20 years. Additionally, I have been working in SEO in general for over 25 years. My approach is very different to that of digital agencies. You deal solely with me. There is no Account Manager and my expertise goes well beyond that most agencies could deliver. SEO is such a complex field today that businesses turn to consultants when they realise they offer far more advantages. Creative and digital agencies tend to offer far more generic services that can’t offer the specialist skills and SEO experience you need, even with their own internal SEO staff.

WordPress and SEO

You couldn’t have chosen a more flexible platform for your website than WordPress. It is one of several solutions that allows you to control every element of your site and hosting.

That is important to anyone providing SEO services.

WordPress gives you a great foundation for an informational (non-ecommerce) site, but the Woocommerce plugin is an immensely powerful ecommerce solution too.

I include membership and subscription websites in that statement too, because there is almost no type of site that WordPress can’t power.

Having full control of every aspect of a website means that your SEO service can look at every element that Google and other search engines consider.

That isn’t the case with many other website solutions, where hosting is completely “locked-down” and controlled by the provider (Shopify, for example).

Many of the alternative platforms are still excellent, but the hosting element is vital when it comes to fine-tuning SEO and ensuring I can get you to where you want to be on Google.

WordPress Development

I began my career as a programmer (developer), but I don’t usually get involved in WordPress site development nowadays.

The skills required for SEO are so specialist and time-consuming that you need to try to focus on constantly updating your knowledge and being ahead of the game.

That is what gives me the ability to deliver the results my clients want.

However, mentioning WordPress in respect of it’s ability for future development and expansion is important.

The open nature of WordPress means that there is very little direction you won’t be able to take your website in.

Furthermore, it means that an SEO consultant can do almost anything they need to on WordPress.

There are countless plugins and ways of expanding the system, all of which have a knock-on effect on WordPress SEO.

The even better news is that very few of them present issues that can’t be addressed, and many give you the ability to strengthen your SEO potential for website visibility, traffic, increased visitor conversions and revenues.

WordPress Hosting for SEO

When your website is hosted through a service that your digital agency or web developer recommend, then the chances are that it is on a server held in a data centre.

If that’s the case, and the hosting server is under the control of the agency or developer, then it is very good news.

Where a website is on what is known as a shared server, that is not fully under the control of the agency/developer, then it isn’t quite as good but isn’t necessarily a major issue.

If your WordPress site is hosted by WordPress themselves (e.g. if you signed up for a WordPress Business or Premium Plan etc.), then that’s not the best scenario.

However, none of these mean I can’t provide my WordPress SEO service. They each allow me differing levels of access to certain things that impact SEO. I’ll tell you what I can and can’t do.

Ultimately, hosting access is the icing on the cake. If you don’t have it, can still get you where you want to be on Google.

SEO comes down to hundreds of small elements and ticking each one off, having a strategy and ample research. Hosting is just one of those elements.

How Much Is My WordPress SEO Service?

I’m afraid this is the classic “how long is a piece of string?” question. It depends on how large your site is, the content, your goals, your competitors and several other factors. However, my WordPress SEO service starts at £350 per calendar month for retained SEO. I also offer an SEO repair service. SEO services can run to many thousands of pounds, particularly for Woocommerce sites with lots of products and complexity. It all depends on the time you want me to devote to getting you where you want to be. You’re also paying for my WordPress knowledge and expertise.

What Do You Receive?

You receive a true WordPress SEO expert, providing a professional service that is committed to results.

I am not a new freelancer or even someone with 3-5 years experience, you’ll benefit from 25 years of web/SEO and tech experience.

I’ve also held senior roles at PLC company level, so I assure you of professional communication and swift responses at all times.

I am honest, open, will never give you false promises and I strive to deliver results and tell you what is required to get them.

I’m approachable and will deal with very technical or non-technical staff, be it at owner, board or staff member level.

WordPress SEO Elements

Like all other SEO services I offer on a variety of platforms, there are 3 primary areas of SEO I can provide.

These are on-page, off-page and technical SEO.

In my experience, most agencies focus on on-page SEO (content only) and tend to provide basic levels of optimisation in that respect.

Off-page is often referred to as related to backlinks. Ultimately, it is building the trust of your site with search engines and can include Local SEO and more more.

Technical SEO is a complex area that few agencies will provide you with, covering servers/hosting, indexing, search engine crawls and more.

Woocommerce SEO

If you’re operating a WordPress site with Woocommerce, I can provide a full Woocommerce SEO service that helps increase your target keyword visibility.

I can also provide a full CRO service to improve conversion rates.

Woocommerce is a very capable ecommerce system and is an area many businesses only explore the surface of, particularly where Woocommerce SEO is concerned.

I have worked on Woocommerce product-based sites, membership business models and subscription service sites.

I can provide a level of expertise and service that transforms the potential reach of your Woocommerce store and helps you reach your revenue goals.

Arrange a WordPress SEO service video meeting.

I offer an initial video meeting by Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or Zoom, free of charge. There is no obligation to further our discussions beyond the meeting. I can provide a proposal and quotation after the meeting if I think I can help you.

I can answer any questions you might have about my WordPress SEO service or other areas of interest. In addition to my WordPress expertise, you’ll also be receiving:

  • Professional and customer-focused service.
  • Clear and transparent pricing and invoicing.
  • Excellent communication.
  • All communication will be directly with me.
  • Transparent, honest and open approach.
  • Over 25 years of experience, knowledge and skills.
  • Commercial insights and business acumen.
  • I am loyal to customers and will not assist competitors.
  • Enthusiasm to understand your business.
  • A genuine drive to succeed for you.
