SOUND FAMILIAR?

Where small businesses lose customers online

It’s rarely one big problem. Usually it’s a few small gaps that quietly send customers to someone else.

  • You don’t show up locally

    People search for what you do near them and find your competitors in the map and the first few results instead.

    Local SEO →

  • Your site is hard to use on a phone

    Lots of people search on their phone. If your site is slow, fiddly or hard to read, they go back and pick someone else.

    Website design →

  • You don’t have enough recent reviews

    Customers compare reviews before they get in touch. A few old ones can make a good business look quiet.

    Reviews & profiles →

  • AI tools don’t mention you

    More people ask ChatGPT or Google’s AI for a recommendation. If your details online are patchy, you’re easy to leave out.

FAQS

Questions? I’ve got answers.

Straight answers to what small business owners ask me most. Don’t see yours? Send me a message and you’ll get a reply from me, not a sales team.

How much does it cost?+

It depends on your goals. There are flexible options, from a one-off SEO audit to a monthly retainer, so you only pay for what you need. No long contracts.

How long does SEO take to work?+

Quick wins, like fixing technical issues and tidying your Google Business Profile, can show results within weeks. Bigger ranking gains usually build over three to six months, and I report progress in plain English along the way.

Do you only work in Manchester?+

No. I'm based in Altrincham, and work with businesses across the UK.

Can you handle all my marketing?+

Yes. SEO, your website and content can all sit under one roof, so everything stays consistent and you get on with running the business.

Can you help my business show up in ChatGPT and AI search?+

Yes. AI tools like ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Copilot rely on clear, consistent information about your business. I help with schema, consistent business details, answer-first content and technical fixes. Find out about AI search.

Do you do branding, logos or van signage?+

No, I don’t, but I know some great people who do branding, logos, van signage and print. Drop me a message and I’ll happily put you in touch.
