SEO, search engine optimisation, is the work of getting your business found when someone nearby searches for what you sell. For a local firm that mostly means three things: a website with a clear page for each service and each area, an accurate Google Business Profile, and a steady flow of genuine reviews.

What local SEO involves
Pages that match searches. People search for a service and a place together: "boiler repair Cowplain", "driveways Purbrook". A page for each service in each area is how a small firm appears across its whole patch.
Titles and descriptions. Each page needs its own title and description that says plainly what the page is about.
Technical basics. Pages that load quickly on a phone, a sitemap, no broken links, and nothing that accidentally blocks search engines.
Google Business Profile. Your free Google listing drives the map results. See our Google Business Profile guide.
Reviews and mentions. Genuine reviews, and your name, address and phone number appearing the same way wherever you are listed, including on your free Waterlooville.co page.
AI search. Assistants such as ChatGPT now answer local questions from web pages. The same clear, consistent facts help there too. See how to get recommended by ChatGPT.
Questions to ask before you pay for SEO
What exactly will you do each month? Which pages will you change? Will I see the results in Google Search Console, which is free and shows real searches and clicks? Is there a minimum contract? Do I keep the website and the content if I stop?
Be wary of two things: a guarantee of first place on Google, which nobody can honestly give, and a monthly fee with no list of the work done.
How long does SEO take?
There is no fixed timetable, and anyone who promises one is guessing. A new page can be picked up within days or take much longer, and competitive searches move more slowly than quiet ones. Ask to be shown the data rather than a promise.
The SEO included with the £500 website build
Dean Keating's website build is a one-off payment of £500. You own the site, there is no contract and no monthly fee, the site has 200+ pages built around your services and areas, and 12 months of SEO work on the site is included after it goes live. SEO for a site he did not build is quoted for the job.
