An SEO retainer that compounds

Technical fixes, intent-led content and ranking work - running on the same monthly cycle, reported on a dashboard you can read without a 30-minute call.

Why a retainer instead of a one-off

Search rewards consistency, not heroics. One-off audits surface every issue and nobody fixes them; ad-hoc content drops never aggregate into topical authority. We run technical fixes, on-page work and content production on the same monthly cadence so compounding can actually compound. On engaged accounts we see meaningful keyword movement in 90-120 days and steady organic traffic growth (typically 25-50% over the first six months) on accounts with clean technical foundations - slower on accounts coming in with platform issues to unwind.

How we'll work

Month 1 is the technical audit, keyword universe map and content gap analysis. The quick wins ship the same month - schema fixes, broken internal links, the obvious meta-data gaps. From month 2 we settle into the cadence: four long-form pieces, ongoing technical hygiene, internal-link sweeps and the monthly written report. Every quarter we revisit the content roadmap and the keyword universe against what's actually shipped.

What's included each month

• Technical SEO: crawl, schema, Core Web Vitals, log-file review • On-page optimisation across the top 20 commercial pages • 4 long-form articles / month (1,500-2,500 words, written by a subject-matter editor) • Internal-linking sweeps + refresh of outdated top-performing content • Backlink monitoring + 5 outreach pitches / month • Monthly written report + a Looker dashboard refreshed daily • Quarterly content roadmap review
