OVERVIEW
SEO, or Search Engine Optimisation, is the process of optimising a website’s technical configuration, content relevance, and link popularity so that search engines rank its pages higher.
Search engines recommend SEO strategies that improve user search experience and page ranking by providing relevant content. This includes using relevant keywords in titles, meta descriptions, and headlines (H1), descriptive URLs with keywords rather than strings of numbers, and schema markup to define the page’s content, among other SEO best practises.

SERVICES
Outreach & Linkbuilding
Frequently, the number of domains that link to your website is cited as one of (if not THE) most influential ranking factors. At A1 SEO, we have cultivated a vast network of legitimate websites that we can contact for link building.
If your competitors have a high search engine ranking, they will be aggressively building links. However, building relationships is difficult. Allow A1 SEO to manage your link-building initiatives; this is our area of expertise.
Local SEO
Local SEO makes it possible for you to attract customers who are searching for local products and services. Local SEO focuses on two categories of searches: local searches and location-based keywords.
Local search engine optimisation is straightforward. A1 SEO follows a procedure that has been refined over the past decade. Here, there is no SEO black magic; only straightforward duties. This procedure, when followed correctly, will increase your website's rankings in the local map pack and for location-based keywords.
On-Page SEO
On-page SEO refers to a web page's elements. In most cases, you have direct control over these elements, and they can be changed instantaneously.
Giving on-page SEO the time it deserves facilitates Google in assigning relevance to your pages and associates your content with keywords that Google users look up.
SEO Audits
We have SEO Audits down to a science at A1 SEO. In the past five years, we have audited hundreds of websites and identified the primary actionable sticking points in each one.
Using a variety of tools, we evaluate the overall health of your website by analysing its technical, on-page, and off-page (link building) elements.
A1 SEO's audit is the ideal starting point if you want to know where your website stands with Google and receive actionable recommendations for improving its search engine rankings.
SEO Consulting & Training
Your team is capable of enhancing your website's search performance, but they lack experience. Strategic direction is a field in which your in-house team excels, and the cost of employing an SEO expert is prohibitive.
A1 SEO is aware that many large organisations want to improve their employees' skills and rely solely on outside firms for strategic planning. We have trained some of the largest in-house marketing teams in the globe, including FMCG, B2B, and B2C teams.
Technical SEO
Technical SEO evaluates a website for search engines. Google-optimize your website. Technical SEO (and on-page SEO) is the foundation for scalability in link building and content marketing.
Sites that tell Google more about themselves receive a higher ranking. It is equivalent to submitting a 10,000-word Spanish dissertation to your English-speaking professor. Good content is worthless if the examiner cannot comprehend it.
Technical SEO is successful. Technical SEO depends on how rapidly A1 SEO can start working on your site.
Technical SEO grants us complete authority. Efficacy is immediate for link-building campaigns. Google takes time to reassess your site's quality, but you should see a rise in rankings once the work is complete.
White Label SEO
A1 SEO manages the SEO strategies of a number of the UK's largest digital marketing agencies. We understand that client staffing, onboarding, and account maintenance can be problematic. A1 SEO's short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term options relieve client pressure.
Our white label SEO services prioritise link construction. The majority of organisations lack the necessary time and expertise. We provide technical SEO, on-page SEO, keyword research, and reporting for agencies without an in-house SEO team or undergoing personnel changes.
If you are able to outsource a substantial portion of your SEO strategy, you can take on more clients without rushing to employ. We are always available for telephone conversations and in-person meetings with the client or agency.
OUR PROCESS
Onboarding
Once your contract is signed we will begin our onboarding process. Our onboarding process kicks off the entire campaigns. From he, we will brief in 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 SEO strategy's performance. At this stage, we also ask you to fill out a couple of forms to help our internal teams to put together a strategy.
Strategy Call
After the onboarding stage, you will already have deliverables being completed against your account, and the clock will be ticking towards increased rankings. By now our team will have spent a considerable amount of time familiarising themselves with your 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 this strategy further to meet your SEO goals. We expect all four clients to commit to regular catch-ups on-going, ideally on a bi-weekly basis.
Niche Analysis
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 industry. From here, we will create a master database containing each page of your website and what is required to start moving the needle in an extremely granular way. This process takes anywhere from 20 to 500+ hours!
Link Building Strategy
Whilst your granular page-level 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!
Technical SEO Sprint
During the niche analysis and early link building stages, our technical SEO team will be in the background working their magic. We run benchmark all of your client's 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.
SEO Scale Up
The previous steps in our process tend to take 1-3 months. By this point you will begin to see movement in the SERPs 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 all designed to scale up nicely. At this stage it is a case of being aggressive with publishing new and optimising older pieces of content, building links and keeping on top of the website's technical SEO.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long does SEO take to work?
This depends on many factors, including your company's industry and keyword competition. SEO takes time. SEO should yield results in 6–12 months. Results are traffic and lead or conversion increases. Any business investing in SEO should expect to see progress within this timeframe, even if you haven't reached your goal.
How does link building help SEO?
One strategy in search engine optimisation (SEO) is link building, which sends a message to search engines like Google that your website is an authoritative resource. This means that sites with more backlinks will likely rank higher.
What is on-page optimisation in SEO?
On-page optimisation, also known as on-page SEO, is the process of enhancing a website's search engine rankings through changes made on the page itself. Measures to enhance the meta description and title tags are examples of this.
What does a Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) specialist do?
When a website is tested, analysed, and modified by an SEO specialist to be search engine friendly, it rises in the rankings on major search engines like Google and Bing.
In order to increase website traffic, lead volume, and brand awareness, an SEO expert will optimise each page of a website to ensure relevant search results and to create a positive user experience. In other words, an SEO Specialist is the same as any other marketer, whether they work in digital or traditional media, in that their ultimate goal is to increase revenue for the company.
An SEO Specialist can do wonders for a business by increasing its website's Google rankings through the use of keyword research and SEO tools like Google Analytics. Some may also collaborate with other members of a marketing team to create new initiatives or improve the management of social media accounts in an effort to increase user engagement and website traffic.
What services does A1 SEO Offer?
A1 SEO offers scalable SEO services, focusing on link building, content optimisation, technical SEO, local SEO, SEO consulting and SEO training.
Do you specialise in any particular sectors?
Simply put, no, we do not specialise in any sector. That being said the majority of our business in in eCommerce SEO, where businesses are selling directly through a website. However, we have helped build dozens of high 6 and 7 figure lead generation businesses.
Why do I need A1 SEO when I can hire a specialist in-house?
At some point, it may be better to hire someone in-house, but in our experience, that only happens when your annual SEO costs are more than £70,000.
Using a third-party agency has a lot of benefits, like having a team of experts who are up-to-date on digital marketing and the latest trends and developments in search technology, instead of just one person trying to keep up with everything. Also, one person in the house gets called into meetings, can call in sick, and needs at least a month off every year.
With Aqueous, you get a group of people, not just one. You gain experience in many different fields, not just your own, and as we invest in training and development, you get better employees who bring more value to your business more often.
Not only do we take away the risk of hiring the wrong person, but we are also likely to be much cheaper than hiring someone in-house, and most importantly, you can trust us as an agency. Trust, Loyalty, and Collaboration (TLC) are the core of how we do business, and the success of our customers is always our top priority.
Why is it so important for SEO to have a content strategy?
Because people always have questions. They type them into search engines and hope to find what they are looking for. Only if the search engines can find the right answer can that happen. We help you come up with the best answers.
The best content strategies are those that focus on getting you seen in the searches that bring the best customers to your website. It's not about being popular or following the latest trend. Instead, it's about being relevant, easy to reach, and there when customers need you.
The good news is that we've been working on content strategies since long before they became trendy, so we know what it takes to get your website to rank.
Do you offer quick fixes and "black hat" SEO?
Never. When it comes to digital marketing, search engine optimisation, content creation, reputation management, and link building, we always use ethical and "white hat" methods. Quick fixes and fake boosts are just a waste of time, and we don't do them.
You can be "number one" for a keyword in a few weeks, but if it is a very popular keyword, the only way to do this is to trick the search engines. Some companies think this is a good solution, but the Search Engines always figure it out and punish the site, so we don't use it. It's short-sighted and doesn't work, so we don't do it.
How much do you charge for your services?
Starting at £1,200+VAT per month, we offer a range of SEO services. We have a variety of packages that will work for most growing businesses, depending on their needs. Get a quote from us and a free review of your website by contacting us directly.
Who is A1 SEO owned by?
A1 SEO is an independent family-run business. We are a limited company. Registration number is SC699214.
Why should I work with an SEO agency like A1 SEO instead of an agency that does everything?
There are a lot of agencies out there that say they offer "full service" and can do everything. From what we've seen, this is almost never the case. Most of the time, they will be good at some things but not so good at other things. They will say they can do all services, but they will outsource some of them without you knowing. We're different because we only offer SEO.
How long are your contracts?
Monthly rolling with a 6 week cancellation policy. We don't tie you in to 12 or even 6 month contracts we are that confident in our abilities.
