FAQ

Answers to the questions we are asked most often about WordPress SEO.

How long does WordPress SEO take?

Technical improvements can sometimes produce early gains within weeks, especially when serious crawling or indexing issues are fixed. Competitive keyword growth usually takes several months because search engines need time to recrawl pages, reassess quality and compare your site with established competitors.

Can you work with our existing WordPress developer?

Yes. We regularly work alongside developers, designers and internal marketing teams. We can supply prioritised tickets, acceptance criteria and testing notes, or carry out suitable WordPress changes directly when access and project scope allow.

Do we need a full website rebuild?

Usually not. Many WordPress websites can be improved through better templates, stronger page structure, cleaner technical settings and focused content changes. We only recommend a rebuild when the current setup creates serious limitations that would cost more to work around than replace.

Do you guarantee first-place rankings?

No responsible SEO provider can guarantee a specific organic position because search results are controlled by search engines and influenced by competitors. We do guarantee transparent work, clear priorities and recommendations based on evidence rather than guesswork.

Can you help after a traffic drop?

Yes. We can investigate technical changes, lost pages, indexing shifts, content quality, backlink issues and recent website releases. The sooner we can review reliable analytics and Search Console data, the easier it is to isolate likely causes.

Is SEO suitable for a small London business?

It can be, provided the work is focused on commercially useful searches and realistic competition. A smaller business often benefits most from improving a limited number of service, location and trust pages rather than trying to rank for every possible term.
