The way people find businesses is changing fast. Google's AI Overviews now answer a lot of searches right at the top of the page, and studies suggest they can cut clicks to websites by as much as 58%. Ranking in the traditional blue links is no longer enough on its own. A modern SEO company has to make sure you show up inside those AI answers too, through AI optimisation (also called AEO and GEO), which is exactly where we focus alongside classic SEO.
We hold a 5.0 star rating on Google. Here is what some of the businesses we have worked with had to say.

SEO is not a one-off job or a box to tick. It is an ongoing discipline that moves faster every year, and it rewards businesses that do it properly.
With us you get technical SEOs, content writers, link builders and designers, rather than a single freelancer stretched across ten clients. More gets done, done properly (and faster).
Most Salford agencies still only think about classic Google rankings. We optimise you for AI Overviews and assistants like ChatGPT as well, so your business gets recommended wherever your customers are searching. And you can log into your own Google account any time to check every result we get, so there are never any smoke and mirrors.
Everything an SEO company should do, built around your growth.
Rank in Google Maps and local search so nearby Salford (inc. Media City) customers find you first.
Get named when people ask ChatGPT and other AI tools who they should use.
Clear the speed, indexing and structure problems that quietly cap your rankings.
Pages written to answer real customer questions and win the click.
Earn the authoritative links that convince Google you deserve to rank.
Send buyer ready traffic straight to your product and category pages.
AI Overviews and assistants like ChatGPT now sit between your customers and your website, and they are only answering more searches. An SEO company that ignores this is optimising for yesterday. We make sure your business is part of the AI answer itself, not just buried in the links below it, so you keep winning customers as search changes.
We let the numbers do the talking. These are real Google Search Console screenshots from client campaigns, the kind of growth an SEO company should be able to show you.
A 198.54% jump in Google traffic in one quarter, close to three times what the site was getting before.
753.55% more traffic from Google across three months, measured against the same period a year earlier.
A 55.88% lift over three months on ecommerce keywords with genuine buyer intent.
Sixteen straight months of growth for a local ecommerce and service provider business.
With us you are never left guessing. You get access to your own reports and can check every gain for yourself, any time.
Simple, transparent and built to deliver.
We learn about your business, your goals and the market you are competing in.
We find what is holding you back and build a plan around the keywords that make you money.
We clear the technical issues that are stopping Google ranking you.
We create the content and earn the links that lift you up the results.
Access to check the numbers yourself - no need to blindly trust anyone.
A small, specialist team who treat your growth as their own.

Matt JDeveloperFor most Salford businesses, yes. SEO brings in customers who are already searching for what you sell, and unlike ads the traffic keeps coming after you stop paying. A good SEO company does the technical work, content and links properly, so you get results faster than trying to piece it together yourself.
Our campaigns typically range from £500 to £10,000 or more per month, depending on how competitive your market is and how quickly you want to grow. Tell us your budget in the form and we will show you honestly what is realistic.
Most clients see meaningful movement within three to six months, with the biggest gains usually between six and twelve. Local Salford campaigns often move faster than national ones because there is less competition.
A dedicated team of specialists rather than one stretched freelancer, a genuine focus on AI optimisation so you get recommended by AI tools as well as Google, and complete transparency, you can log in and check every result yourself.
No. We are based in Salford Quays and know the local market inside out, but we work with businesses across Greater Manchester, the UK and beyond, including national ecommerce brands and B2B companies.
AI optimisation, sometimes called AEO or GEO, means getting your business recommended inside AI answers like Google's AI Overviews and ChatGPT. As AI takes more of the clicks, it is becoming just as important as ranking in classic search, and it is built into every campaign we run.
