The problem

National search is a different game

Ranking across South Africa means competing with every business in your industry, not just the ones down the road. The wins come from a technically sound site, pages that cover each service in real depth, content worth reading and steady improvement over months. It's less about a map listing and more about being the most useful result for the search.

Our approach to SEO

We start with search demand, not assumptions. Keyword research shows what your buyers actually type, how many people search for it and how hard it will be to rank. That becomes a roadmap: fix the technical issues holding the site back, strengthen the pages closest to page one, then build new content where demand is highest. Every month you see what we did, what moved and what comes next.

FAQs

SEO agency FAQs

What does an SEO agency do?
An SEO agency handles search engine optimisation: improving your website's visibility in Google so more of the right people find you. That includes technical fixes, content, on-page optimisation and tracking the results.
SEO agency, SEO company or SEO specialist: what's the difference?
Mostly the size of the team. An SEO consultant or specialist is usually one person. An SEO agency or company has a team covering strategy, content and technical work. We're an agency, with developers in-house.
How much do SEO services cost in South Africa?
It depends on scope and how competitive your market is. We look at both before quoting, and your proposal sets out exactly what's included each month.
Can you work with us if we're not in Cape Town?
Yes. We're based in Cape Town and work with clients across South Africa and internationally, fully remotely if needed.
Can you do SEO for our online store?
Yes. We optimise Shopify and WooCommerce stores, from category structure and product pages to site speed and schema.
Do you write content?
Yes. Service pages, guides and blog articles can all be included in your monthly scope.
