WordPress SEO services for small business websites
We redesign your WordPress site and fix its SEO: speed, plugin setup, structured data and on-page work. One flat $1,000, then $100/month (optional). See a free preview before you pay anything.
The WordPress problems that hide your site
WordPress can rank very well. These three things stop it most often. See why a WordPress site doesn't show up on Google.
Plugin clutter
Dozens of plugins, two that do the same job, and leftovers nobody remembers installing. They slow pages down and can clash over titles and sitemaps.
Slow themes
Page builders and multipurpose themes that load far more code than a small business page needs, especially on a phone.
One flat price

SEO plugin setup done right (Yoast or Rank Math)
An SEO plugin is only as good as its settings. We check what it's doing to every content type: which ones are indexable, how titles are built, what goes into the sitemap and what schema it outputs.
- Indexing: pages and posts you want found are indexable; thin archive, tag and attachment pages usually aren't.
- Titles and descriptions: written for each important page, not left on a site-wide template.
- Sitemap: one sitemap, from one plugin, submitted to Google Search Console and Bing.
- Schema: your business type, name and area set correctly, with no duplicate markup from the theme.
Redesign without losing rankings
Redirects and URL mapping, done before launch, not after.
A redesign is the most common way a WordPress site loses traffic it already had. The fix is boring and essential: before anything changes, we list every page that gets visits or has links, decide where each one lives on the new site, and add a 301 redirect from every old address that changes.
After launch we check Search Console for errors, test the redirects and fix anything that slipped. If you're weighing the cost of a redesign, our guide on what a small business website redesign should cost explains what to look for in a quote.

You keep full control of your WordPress site
Your site, hosting account and admin logins stay yours. We use standard WordPress tools so any developer can work on it later, and you get an editing guide for the pages you'll change most.

Yoast or Rank Math: which do you use?
Whichever fits your site. If one is already installed and set up sensibly, we keep it. We never run two SEO plugins at once, because they conflict over titles, sitemaps and schema.
Will you change my theme?
Only if it's slowing the site down or blocking good layouts. Often we keep the theme and fix the pages, plugins and settings. You see a free preview before you pay anything.
Do you handle hosting?
No. Your hosting, domain and any paid plugins stay billed by those providers. If your hosting is the reason the site is slow, we'll tell you in your free overview.
Will a redesign hurt my rankings?
Not if it's done carefully. We keep pages that already rank, map every old address to its new one and add 301 redirects, then check Search Console after launch.
Do you guarantee rankings?
No. No honest SEO company can. We fix what holds your site back and set it up so Google can find, read and trust it.
