SEO Guides for Small Businesses

Plain-English SEO guides for people who run a small business and don't have time to learn a new trade.

Guides are on the way

We're writing the first guides now. Each one answers a single question clearly, with steps you can follow yourself, and without the jargon that makes most SEO advice hard to use.

Here is what they'll cover:

Sticky notes and a notepad spread across a desk
  • Local SEO: how the Google Maps results work and what you can do to appear in them

  • Google Business Profile: setting it up properly, choosing categories, and handling reviews

  • Content: what to write on your service pages and whether a blog is worth your time

  • Backlinks: what a good link looks like and which offers to ignore

  • AI search: how ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews pick which businesses to mention

  • What SEO costs: what you should expect to pay for, and what should raise a red flag

Until the guides are published, the fastest way to find out what your own site needs is a free SEO audit. You can also browse our SEO services to see how we handle each of these areas for clients.
