A Croydon SEO company search often comes after a quote that was hard to read. The number was monthly. The pages were not mentioned. The promise was a position. This note is the other order: make the website and the Google profile say the same true things, then decide if any ongoing work is even needed.
The service is SEO in Croydon. The practical first list is what to fix first. If you wanted a web design studio rather than an SEO plan, that is a Croydon web design company.
The right order
Write the services that should bring enquiries. Give each one a page if people search for them separately. Put the phone number in the header as a link. Put the real address on the profile. Point the profile’s website field at the real site. That is the job. A report that counts impressions before those pieces exist is a distraction.
A small firm in Croydon usually needs to be found in a few neighbourhoods, not across the whole of London. SEO for that firm is a short list, which is also why it can sit inside a website package instead of a separate department.
What the work actually is
On the site: titles that name the service, a first paragraph a stranger can understand, internal links, compressed images, and a contact path. On the profile: the right category, real hours, photos of the work, and reviews that were actually left. The two must match. Connecting the profile and NAP consistency are the checks.
We build the pages as part of web design. Starter is £150 for up to five pages. Business is £295 for up to fifteen. Growth is £495 for up to thirty. The first year of domain, hosting and SSL is included. Year two is about £60 to the providers. Basic on-page structure is inside those prices, not a second invoice labelled SEO.
What we will not sell
We will not sell first place in Croydon. We will not sell a page for every ward so the invoice looks busy. We will not sell a blog you will not write. We will not put a Croydon address on our own profile. The studio is at 109A Brighton Road, Coulsdon, CR5 2NG. Your profile should be just as exact.
If a proposal leads with a ranking and never asks where you work, treat that as a reason to pause. The town pages test is in service-area pages versus one homepage.
Local, not a national campaign
Croydon searches are local. Someone wants a firm they can call. The page has to work on a phone. The number has to dial. Hours, if they matter, should be text. Photos should be yours. A national SEO programme is the wrong shape for a shop or a trade. What a local SEO agency in Croydon usually means is the same point from the agency side of the search. Eligibility is the fair word. A finished page can be eligible. A contract cannot force the result.
How to start
Send the services and the address you will publish. We will say whether the current site can be edited or needs rebuilding, and which package matches the page list. Most small sites are ready within two to four weeks of the words and pictures. You can keep a company involved later. You do not need one in order to launch a clear page.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an SEO company on a monthly fee?
Not to launch. The pages and the profile are part of the website build. A later retainer only makes sense if there is still work to do.
Can you guarantee a position in Croydon?
No. Nobody honest can. A clear page can be eligible. Google still chooses what to show.
Where is the studio?
109A Brighton Road, Coulsdon, CR5 2NG. The Croydon work is done from there.
