Some teams don’t need an agency to run delivery, they need someone senior to set the direction, sanity check the plan and keep the work honest.

What we build

What SEO consultancy covers

Strategy and roadmap

Where the opportunity actually is, what to do first and what to stop doing. A plan with dates and owners rather than a list of recommendations.

Technical direction

Specifications your developers can build from, with the reasoning attached so the decisions survive the next redesign.

In house team support

Training, review sessions and a second opinion on the calls that matter. Your team keeps ownership, we keep the standard high.

Audits and second opinions

An independent read on your site, your agency’s work or a platform decision, with the evidence behind every conclusion.

Content and AI search direction

What to publish, in what order, and how to make sure it earns a place in AI answers as well as the ten blue links.

Measurement and reporting

Reporting built around your goals, so the board sees the same picture your team does.

You keep the team, we set the standard

Consultancy works best where there is already capability in house. We add the senior judgement and the outside view, not another layer of delivery.

Frequently asked questions

What is SEO consultancy?

Senior direction and oversight rather than delivery. You get the strategy, the specifications and the judgement, while your team or your existing agency does the work.

How is it different from a retainer?

A retainer means we deliver the work. Consultancy means we set the direction and review work delivered by someone else. Some clients use both.

Do you work with in house teams?

Often. It is where consultancy tends to pay off most, because there is already capability to build on.

Will you review another agency’s work?

Yes, and we will be straight with you about what we find, good or bad.

How much time does it take from our side?

Less than most people expect. A regular session, plus whatever review your team asks for in between.

How is it priced?

We scope every retainer to your site, so there’s no price list. Consultancy is usually scoped by the amount of senior time you need each month.
