How will we measure whether SEO is working?
We agree a starting point and review the same pages, locations and date ranges over time. Search Console can show impressions, clicks and the queries bringing visitors to your site. Where enquiry tracking is available, we distinguish recorded submissions from qualified enquiries using your feedback. Indexing, rankings and enquiries are different measures; we explain data gaps and use the findings to agree the next work.
How long does SEO take?
Changes need to be crawled and assessed by search engines. Timing varies with the site, competition and type of work, so progress is reviewed over time rather than promised by a fixed date.
Can you guarantee a number-one ranking?
No. Rankings and indexing are controlled by search engines. We agree the work, explain the reasons for it and report what the available data shows.
Can you help with local SEO in Auckland?
Yes. We can improve local service content and consistency of business information. Google Business Profile work depends on eligibility, verified ownership and accurate business details.
Can SEO be included in a new website or redesign?
Yes. We can plan page topics, navigation, internal links and search metadata during website design and development. For a redesign, the scope can include reviewing existing URLs and planning redirects. Ongoing content and search reporting are agreed separately; building a website does not guarantee rankings.
How is SEO different from Google Ads?
SEO improves the website’s ability to appear in organic search. Google Ads and paid media use a separate advertising budget for paid placements. They can support the same business goal while needing different work and measurement.
What does an SEO audit include, and who implements the fixes?
The scope distinguishes a review from implementation. A review identifies findings and priorities. For agreed changes, we confirm whether ABDS, your team or your website provider will carry them out, then record the work completed and checks made. You approve content and business details before publication.
How much do SEO services cost in Auckland?
The quote depends on the website’s size and condition, the technical changes and content needed, and the reporting required. We identify one-off work, any recurring support and third-party costs separately. Additional work is agreed before it starts.
