Learn more about how I work

What you can expect

Practical support with no guesswork

Work you can track

You can see the work completed and the reason it was prioritised. I review search performance and enquiry data with you, explain what the evidence supports and keep the next actions clear.

Strategy matched to your market

I assess your services, competitors and existing website before recommending a plan. The priorities reflect the customers you want to reach and the time and resources available to deliver the work.

Straight answers

You deal directly with me and receive advice in plain English. I explain the scope, likely dependencies and any uncertainty before we commit to work, so you can make an informed decision about your website.

How the work actually runs

A clear four-step process from audit to growth

A lot of businesses struggle because SEO feels vague. This keeps it practical: find the issues, fix the priorities, improve the key pages, then measure what actually drives enquiries.

Audit and diagnosis

Identify the technical, content, and structure issues that are holding back growth.

Priority roadmap

Set out what needs doing first, what can wait, and what should drive the biggest return.

Strategy implementation

Fix technical issues, upgrade key pages, and strengthen local and service-intent relevance.

Review and refinement

Track rankings, traffic quality, and enquiries, then refine monthly priorities based on data.

Client testimonial

A website Oracle is proud to share

Phil was very responsive throughout the build of our Oracle Training Consultants website. He listened to the challenges we were facing and put practical solutions in place to resolve them. I really appreciated how he took the time to understand what we needed and followed through with solutions that work for our business. I love the look of the new website and how it presents our business. Having a website we're proud to share makes a real difference.
The website is already generating new enquiries for us, which is lovely to see. Customers can now pay using Klarna too, giving them another payment option. I'm really pleased with what Phil has created for Oracle Training Consultants. I'll definitely use Phil again in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for help with their website. It's been a pleasure working with him.

SEO FAQs

Common SEO questions

Yes. While Barnsley is a big part of my work, I also support businesses across Yorkshire and further afield, so the best place to start is usually my areas covered page.

I provide practical SEO services built around what will actually help the business, whether that means technical fixes, local SEO, better service pages, or a clearer long-term strategy.

Yes. A lot of my clients are smaller businesses that need straightforward support rather than layers of process, which is why my services overview is built around practical work rather than bloated retainers.

Yes. In many cases the smartest move is improving what is already there, especially if the site would benefit from stronger structure, clearer calls to action, or ongoing website management.

Yes. More traffic only gets you so far, so I often look at how the site guides people towards contact, trust, and conversion alongside the main web design work.
