How We Approach WordPress SEO
A four-step process that builds a clean technical foundation then compounds it with content and authority.
01
Technical Audit and Quick Wins
We crawl your WordPress site, audit plugin configuration, assess Core Web Vitals, and identify every indexation, duplication, and speed issue. We fix critical problems immediately and build a prioritised roadmap for the rest.
02
Keyword and Content Gap Analysis
We map your existing content against what your target buyers search for, identify gaps where competitors rank and you do not, and build a content plan that targets high-intent keywords with realistic ranking potential.
03
On-Page Optimisation and Content Build
We optimise existing pages for target keywords and create new content to fill gaps. Every piece is built with proper structure, internal linking, and schema markup to maximise ranking potential and click-through rate.
04
Authority Building and Reporting
We build authoritative backlinks to your key pages, monitor rankings and organic traffic weekly, and report on the metrics that matter: traffic, rankings, and revenue-generating conversions from organic search.
