How the work moves

From search priorities to sustained progress

01

Define the commercial goal

02

Build the evidence

Review performance, search demand and your website to identify the opportunities most likely to support that goal.

03

Turn priorities into delivery

Create a focused order of work, implement the agreed improvements and use results to guide what happens next.

Managed SEO pathway

Foundation, Strategy, then managed Growth

Foundation and Strategy establish the evidence and plan needed before managed Growth begins. Each stage is scoped and priced separately.

Step 1 · Assessment

Foundation

From£499*

Understand what is helping, what is holding your website back and where the strongest opportunities exist before planning begins. This stage is primarily investigative, although small corrective actions may be agreed separately where appropriate.

Saving

What you get

  • A top-level SEO audit explaining what is helping or holding back your website
  • Keyword research producing an agreed list of relevant target searches
  • A review of the existing analytics and tracking setup
  • A straightforward baseline Data Studio report where suitable data is available
  • A clear explanation of the findings and immediate priorities

Step 2 · Planning

Strategy

From£749*

Turn the evidence into a prioritised roadmap that explains what should happen next, why it matters and how progress will be measured. Strategy focuses on planning; ongoing implementation begins in Growth.

Saving

What you get

  • A keyword plan mapping agreed target searches to existing or proposed pages
  • A focused initial 90-day roadmap built around the strongest commercial opportunities
  • A rolling planning framework that can be updated during Growth
  • An expanded Data Studio report covering progress, risks and next steps
  • Clear prioritisation, ownership and sequencing for the recommended work

Ongoing · Managed delivery

Growth

From£699*per month

Recommended if you can commit to sustained implementation, learning and roadmap refinement.

Saving

What you get

  • Hands-on improvements across the areas your website needs most
  • Proactive monitoring and ongoing monthly management
  • Responsive support as priorities change throughout the month
  • Regular interpretation of performance, risks and opportunities
  • Updates to the rolling roadmap when evidence or business needs change
  • Direct communication without account-management handovers
Choose your partnership model

Both arrangements include the same managed Growth service. The difference is the initial commitment and monthly starting price.

Independent support

The right choice depends on what the work needs

For businesses that value speed, clarity and direct access to the person doing the work, searchDecoded offers a leaner alternative to an agency. There are fewer handovers, less time lost translating the brief and more of the budget focused on the work itself.

Common questions

What to know before getting started

Clear answers about the service, the buying journey and how searchDecoded works.

What is SEO?

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is the process of improving how easily people can discover your business through search engines such as Google. It combines technical improvements, content strategy and ongoing optimisation to increase relevant visibility over time.

How can SEO help my business grow?

Effective SEO helps more of the right people discover your business during their research and buying journey. Over time this can increase qualified enquiries, sales and brand visibility while reducing reliance on paid advertising.

Is SEO a quick win or a long-term investment?

SEO is typically a long-term investment rather than an immediate marketing channel. Some improvements can produce relatively quick results, while others take longer as search engines recrawl, understand and reassess your website. The objective is sustainable organic growth rather than short-term spikes.

Why does searchDecoded begin with Foundation and Strategy?

Ongoing SEO works best when it is guided by evidence rather than assumptions. Foundation establishes the current position, while Strategy prioritises the work most likely to improve long-term organic performance before ongoing delivery begins.

What happens if my website needs development work?

Some recommendations may require website development or specialist implementation. Where work falls outside the agreed scope, searchDecoded will explain the options and agree any additional work before it begins.

Can searchDecoded work alongside my existing developer or marketing team?

Yes. Many recommendations can be implemented collaboratively with existing developers, designers or internal marketing teams. The level of involvement is agreed during scoping.

Prices shown are representative baseline starting prices. The final fee will reflect the agreed scope and will be confirmed in writing before work begins.
