A1 SEO - A Leading Financial Services SEO Agency

Once your contract is signed, we will begin our onboarding process. Our onboarding process kicks off the entire SEO campaign. From here, we will brief you on your website's technical, on-page, and off-page audits. We will also create your own tailored reporting dashboard so you can have complete oversight of your strategy's SEO performance. At this stage, we also ask you to fill out a couple of forms to help our internal teams put together an SEO strategy.

After the onboarding stage, you will already have deliverables being completed against your account, and the clock will be ticking toward increased rankings. By now, our team will have spent a considerable amount of time familiarising themselves with your segment of the financial services industry and will reach out to arrange a deep dive call to go through our proposed strategy and gain feedback to allow us to tailor a financial services SEO strategy further to meet your goals. We expect all of our clients to commit to regular catch-ups on-going, ideally on a bi-weekly basis.

Now we can start cooking with gas! Armed with the knowledge gained from the onboarding process and our strategy call, our team of SEO experts will conduct an in-depth niche analysis, covering every topic and sub-topic within your segment of the finance industry. From here, we will create a master database containing each page of your financial services website and what is required to start moving the needle in an extremely granular way. This process takes anywhere from 20 to 500+ hours!

Whilst your granular page-level SEO strategy is being devised, our team of in-house digital PR experts will crawl through your Google Search Console account to find the biggest opportunities for external links. We look for pages where links will move the needle in a big way, getting you the best possible ROI for your budget. Our team has the ability to deliver scalable off-page SEO strategies from day 5!

During the niche analysis and early link-building stages, our technical SEO team will be in the background working their magic. We run a benchmark on all of our clients' websites against a 100+ point checklist and action any anomalies we find. We also do a deep dive within Google Search Console, looking for query gaps, indexing issues, broken average position lines, and much, much more. This is a sprint that is repeated every single month.

The previous steps in our process tend to take 1-3 months. By this point, you will begin to see SEO success, such as movement in the SERPs (search engine result pages), and will have a good idea of how we work and operate. All of the systems we have put in place for your business to date are designed to scale up nicely. At this stage, it is a case of being aggressive with publishing newly-developed quality content (such as in-depth educational content), optimising older pieces, building links, and keeping on top of the website's technical SEO.
