How do i get my website found on google?

If you already have a website but feel that it’s not getting found on Google or other search engines, it could be because no work has been done to optimize it for search engine visibility.

Improper or lack of meta titles & Descriptions

In many cases this is down to improper or lack of meta titles, descriptions and the proper keywords within the page content. I’ve even seen websites that were built by designers without any of this being done at all.

Internal links and page ads

Another thing that is often overlooked is internal linking. Search engines like Google look at how many internal links there are to a page to determine that page’s importance.

Additionally, from a visitor point of view, internal links help them navigate their way around your website more easily. Where possible, internal banner ads can also be used to inform and promote other pages and services. The more user-friendly your website is, the higher search engines will rank it.

Website SEO analysis - How it works

I will analyze your website and do keyword research which will determine the best search words to connect potential customers with your website. Then I can either make the necessary changes or suggest changes to you.

No magic SEO bullet

There is no magic bullet to SEO, and while I expect you are familar with all those spam emails promising to get you on the first page of Google, it’s never always that simple and quick. However, there are many things that can be done to get your website seen where it is not being seen, increase your search engine visibility and improve the chances of climbing up the search engine rankings.

Good, relevant SEO that delivers results

I have worked with several clients who have seen a huge improvement in their traffic and custom.

Local Andover osteopath, Beth Lawrence, had a basic website but it wasn’t getting found when people searched for Osteopath in Andover. This was simply because her whole site and pages were not optimised for this search term. After completely rebuilding her website, doing extensive keyword research and re-writing all meta titles, descriptions and page content to more closely match what her potential clients would be searching for, she climbed to page 1 of Google for that search term after just a couple of months and her bookings and enquires increased.

Pro photographer, Melvin Nicholson, came to me looking to improve his website and increase the search engine visibility of his photography workshops. By building new landing pages for each of his workshops and optimizing them with the relevant and best search terms, and setting internal links and ads, he has seen his workshop pages shoot up the rankings, and even got up to page 1 for his Iceland photography tours, a very competitive term.

How much will it cost?

I offer affordable SEO services on an hourly rate basis. I will analyze your website and give you a no obligation estimate of how much it would cost. Many offer a fixed SEO package, but these I feel are unfair because it may be that your website is small and only needs, or you want, some basic SEO work which could be just a two-hour job. Or maybe you want a more in-depth overhaul of your website. It could even be that you want a whole new website design. When I design or redesign a website I build in the SEO from the ground up.

Ian has been managing our website for a few months now and it's a blast. He rebuilt the website to be more informative for people, more discoverable for search engines, and in line with our brand guidelines. We're already seeing great SEO results, with Shutter starting to appear on the first pages of Google's search results. Monthly management from Ian also exceeded all expectations. He takes time to understand the business and tailors his suggestions and content creation to real needs of (in our case) app users. Ian's really proactive in his approach and makes sure there is constant progress on the website even when we are busy with other things. I highly, highly recommend Ian. Just don't steal him from us.

Ian completed a website for me and as it evolves and progresses, he’s definitely the right person to undertake further work on it. He’s a pleasure to work with and easily transforms rough ideas you give him into functional and neat designs; extremely knowledgeable in his field of web design and SEO. Highly recommend.

I have used Ian twice now . First he consulted me when I started to design my first Word Press site. Then later at the end I had him come in and help me with some issues I had been unable to fix and put the finishing touches on the site, do the SEO and redo my choice of plugins. I realized then I should have brought him back into the project way before then. Ian is highly knowledgeable about WordPress and easy to work with. I highly recommend him for you WP project.

Ian Middleton designed a website for my photography workshop business. He is brilliant to put it simply. As a photographer himself he understood my needs and made helpful suggestions throughout regarding the design and also how we could optimise the website for SEO. He was, and continues to be, incredibly helpful and patient, and is always there to offer advice and assistance should I need it when updating the website myself. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a great looking and well performing website at a reasonable price.

Ian helped me to design a new website for my newly opened osteopathic clinic. He showed a genuine interest in my business - conducting research to understand osteopathy, my competitors, the best content to market my business and SEO/Google search terms. I have found his services to be completely invaluable and my business has benefitted enormously thanks to his expertise and guidance. 99% of my new patient enquiries now come through the enquiry form on my website and I get a lot of compliments as to the professionalism of my site, as well as it being user friendly and aesthetically pleasing. Ian is extremely professional and knowledgable - I would not hestitate to recommend him to anyone looking for help with website design. He was genuinely interested in tailoring my website to my business model and to show case me/my clinic in the best way possible. I could not have done it without him - thank you Ian!
