Why you're not

On page one (yet)

Most small business websites miss out on Google for the same few reasons: no clear page for each service, weak local signals, slow or messy technical setup, and very few reviews or links.

We fix the foundations first, then build pages and content around the searches that bring in customers. SEO takes time, so we show you what we did and what moved, every month.

What we look at first:

Which searches you show up for today, and which you're missing
Technical problems holding your site back
Your Google Business Profile, reviews and local listings

No lock-in. No jargon. Just a straight answer.

How it works

From invisible to page one

SEO done in the right order.

SEO works best as a steady monthly effort. We start with the fixes that make the biggest difference, then keep building pages, content, reviews and links that help Google (and AI search tools) trust your business.

Our SEO is offered as part of a monthly retainer with set hours, so you always know what you're paying and what you're getting.

SEO FAQs

Straight answers to the questions we hear most.

How long does SEO take to work?

Quick technical fixes can help within weeks, but most businesses see steady growth over three to six months. Competitive keywords take longer.

What is local SEO?

Local SEO helps you show up when people nearby search for your service, including the Google map results. It covers your Google Business Profile, reviews, local pages and listings.

SEO or Google Ads: which is better?

Google Ads brings leads quickly while you pay per click. SEO builds traffic you don't pay for per click, but takes longer. Many businesses use both: ads now, SEO for the long term.

Can you guarantee a number one ranking?

No honest agency can guarantee rankings, because Google controls them. We focus on the work that moves rankings and report on what changes.

Do you write the content?

Yes. We write service pages, location pages, FAQs and blog posts based on what your customers search for.

Do you only work with Durban businesses?

We're based in Amanzimtoti and work with businesses across Durban, the South Coast, KwaZulu-Natal and South Africa.
