Do I need SEO or just a website?

Someone will try to sell you "full SEO". Reports. Keywords. Magic. Meanwhile your site still has no phone number on mobile and your address is wrong.

For most local trades, the order is simple. Get a proper site first. Then earn the ranking. Not the other way round.

What actually helps locally

• Clear services in plain English
• Your area named properly (Worksop, Retford, wherever you cover)
• A site that loads on a phone
• Google Business Profile sorted
• Real reviews over time

That is not glamorous. It works. Agencies selling twelve month SEO retainers before your site is usable are selling you a gym membership while you're still looking for the building.

I build for local search without the waffle

Your site should be findable for the work you want. Clean structure. Fast pages. Honest content. No keyword stuffing that makes you sound like a robot.
