SEO for WordPress & Shopify
SEO is ideal for those who want to build a sustainable business that lasts into the future.
We are specialists in SEO for WordPress and Shopify Websites

WordPress is the most popular platform used to build websites and is especially good for SEO for service businesses. We want you to get the best results and having a website in WordPress makes it much easier for us to get you amazing results. Many online stores are now built in Shopify and we have successfully ranked shopify websites.
SEO SERVICES for WORDPRESS & SHOPIFY

If you are also keen to improve the impact, you have on people, animals and the environment then we would especially love to work with you.
Even though we can work with a business anywhere in the world our aim is to bring you clients from your local area. Your local area might be your local city or suburbs or towns. We work with a lot of family owned home improvement companies. We also work with professional services such as accountants, dentists and chiropractors.
You may want people to come to your local store from the local area or your online store from anywhere in the world. We work with shopping centres that want to lease more properties, to individual retail stores to online stores.
Why SEO is so good as a long term strategy buts sucks in the short term
SEO is a great long-term strategy because it keeps building on itself exponentially.
With other advertising like Google and Facebook ads, you stop getting leads when you stop paying. Also, with ads, as time goes by you generally receive fewer leads for the same money.
However, with SEO you may invest the same amount each month and as time goes by you get more and more leads.
For example if you invest $1000 a month you might find that in the 1st year the traffic you get from SEO may have only cost you $200 a month if you had got it with ads. However, by the third year you are paying $1000 a month for traffic that would cost $6000- $12000 a month to get from ads. That is the power of SEO. After 2-3 years our clients end up with waiting lists, needing to employ new staff or even the ability to franchise.
