SEO for companies whose first agency stopped working.
Engineering-grade technical SEO, editor-led content, link building you'd defend out loud. Six operators. No account managers between you and the work.
Your audit was written by an offshore freelancer.
You paid $8k. You got a 90-page PDF with screenshots of Screaming Frog. None of it shipped. Your eng team didn't read it. You don't blame them.
Your "digital PR" was a guest-post network.
Twenty links a quarter on sites you'd never read. DR 60 but topical relevance zero. The June update came and half of them stopped passing equity. The agency went quiet.
Your reporting is a dashboard, not a report.
Looker Studio with traffic up and to the right. No narrative. No forecast. No admission that GA4 stopped seeing half your conversions. A CFO can't sign off on that.
Three offers, productized.
Buyers ask three questions: can you audit us, can you build links we won't be embarrassed by, and can you run the whole thing? Those are the three things we sell. The other services live one click in.
SEO Audit
A 40–60 page technical and content audit, prioritised by revenue impact. Your engineers can ticket the fixes the same week.
Link Building
Editor-led digital PR placements on real publications. Named outlets in the proposal. No PBNs, no Fiverr, no DR-shopping.
Growth Retainer
The full engagement: strategy, technical work, content, and links — run by named operators, not coordinated by an account manager.
The numbers we'd cite in court.
Everything on this strip is verifiable. Anything we couldn't back with a screenshot or a written client confirmation didn't make the page.
Since 2022 · across audit, link, and retainer work
We don't auto-renew. They renew because the work compounds.
Editorial + crowd · no PBNs, no link farms
Average length 47 pages · turnaround 14 days
Five verbs. No discovery phase.
We don't do four-week discovery. The audit is the discovery. You leave the scoping call with a written scope of work — not a slide deck.

Scope
One call. We pull your SERPs, your stack, your goals. You leave with a written scope of work — not a slide deck — within 48 hours.
Artefact · Scope doc · 4–6 pages - 02
Audit
Two weeks. Technical, content, link profile, competitive gap. We name what's broken, what it costs to leave broken, and who fixes it.
Artefact · Audit · 40–60 pages · ticketable - 03
Re-architect
Information architecture, internal linking, schema, and the on-page changes that move rankings before any new content ships.
Artefact · PRs and content briefs · merged this sprint - 04
Ship
Content, code, and links — produced in-house. We hand back artefacts, not recommendations. You see the work, not a Trello board.
Artefact · Weekly delivery log · what shipped, what didn't - 05
Compound
Months 3–12: refresh winners, retire losers, defend the SERPs you've taken. Monthly note that survives a CFO meeting.

Three things we do that most agencies don't.
We ship code and copy, not recommendations.
Reporting that survives a CFO meeting.
Real engagements. Verified numbers.
Stape and Paybis are clients who let us use their names — most of the others are NDA-protected and we walk through dashboards on the call. Numbers signed off before publish.
+412% non-brand organic across 14 'sGTM' clusters
Sixteen-month engagement: rebuilt a sprawling docs-and-blog estate around the queries DTC marketers actually search for. Comparison pages, integration pages with named partners, and a technical migration to a new docs subdomain that didn't lose a single ranking.
Top-3 for 22 country-specific 'buy crypto' queries
Multi-market expansion in EU + LatAm. Country pages built with native-language editors per geo, hreflang fixed for the first time in three years, source-tagged outbound for clean attribution. Sign-ups from organic up 3.4× over twelve months.
Top-3 local pack in 71 of 84 markets
GBP management at scale, location-page architecture rebuild, review-velocity programme. Twelve markets that had never seen the pack are now anchored there. NDA in place — we walk through the dashboards on call.
Four industries we know cold.
The playbook bends for the vertical. We say no to dropshipping, arbitrage commerce, and anything we're going to be a bad partner for. The ones below — these we ship every week.
E-commerce
Shopify, BigCommerce, headless setups. Category and PDP work, faceted nav cleanup, programmatic done responsibly.
SaaS
Series A–C marketing leaders. Comparison-page SERPs, integrations content, MQL-quality over volume.
Local & Multi-Location
Single locations and 500-site chains. GBP at scale, location-page IA, review-velocity work.
B2B & Professional Services
Long sales-cycle SEO. Intent-data overlap, thought-leadership ranking, the slow compounding kind of work.
We write because we ship.
No listicles. No SEO-thoughts threads. The blog publishes when we've actually learned something on a current engagement.
