Who SEO support is for
SEO makes it easier for the right customers to find, trust and contact you. It's gradual work that builds on a sound website, useful content and accurate business information.
• Service businesses and professional firms that depend on enquiries
• Trades and home-service businesses that work in a defined area
• Ecommerce businesses that need clearer product, category and website foundations
• Businesses whose website gets visits but not enough enquiries
• Businesses that want the work implemented, not just recommended
It's less likely to suit a business that needs results within a few weeks, or one that only wants a report to hand to someone else.
What SEO support covers
Most projects need some of each area, in a different balance depending on the website and the market.
Technical SEO
Making sure search engines can crawl, index and understand the pages that matter.
• Crawlability and indexation
• XML sitemaps, robots.txt and redirects
• Broken links, duplicate and thin pages
• Page speed and mobile usability issues
On-page SEO
Making each key page clear about what you offer, who it's for and what to do next.
• SEO titles and meta descriptions
• Heading structure and clearer service-page copy
• Image file names and alt text
• Calls to action and enquiry routes
Local SEO
Helping businesses that serve a defined area appear in local results and on maps.
• Google Business Profile review and improvement
• Consistent name, address and phone details
• Service-area and location information
• Review requests without incentives
Content and search intent
Understanding how customers actually search, then matching the right page to each need.
• Keyword research and search intent
• Keyword-to-page mapping
• Content gaps and new service pages
• Guides and FAQs based on real questions
Website and conversion
SEO works best when the website itself is clear, fast and easy to use.
• Page structure and navigation
• Internal links between related pages
• Forms and enquiry paths
• WordPress and WooCommerce improvements
SEO during redesigns and rebuilds
Protecting existing search visibility when a website changes.
• URL and content inventory before changes
• Redirect mapping for pages that move
• Titles, headings and internal links carried over
• Checks before and after launch
What SEO costs and how the commitment works
SEO support starts from £1,200 per month. You get a written scope and a written quote before any work starts, so you know what's being done and the expected cost.
53Marketing is not VAT registered, so no VAT is added.
Monthly SEO support
From £1,200 per month
Typically 6 months or longer
Depending on the priorities agreed for the project, monthly work may include:
- Fixes and improvements made on your website
- Work on the pages that matter most: titles, headings, copy and internal links
- New or improved content where it's needed
- Local SEO work where your business depends on a defined area
- A plain-English update on what was done and what the data shows
Why 6 months or longer
SEO typically needs 6 months or longer. The first weeks go on review and the most important fixes. After that, search engines need time to pick up the changes, and new content needs time to earn its place. Some improvements show sooner; none of it can be rushed or promised.
What affects the price
- The size and condition of your website
- How competitive your services and area are
- How much new content is needed
- Whether the site needs development work as well
A new website or a full rebuild is quoted separately.

Implementation, not just reports
An audit only helps if its recommendations are acted on. Many SEO reports list issues that never get fixed, because the person who wrote the report can't make the changes and the website needs someone else to implement them.
Because 53Marketing handles both SEO and website development, the same person who finds an issue can usually fix it, whether that's a technical problem, a weak service page or an unclear route to enquiry. You work directly with that person throughout.
How the work runs
In the first month
1
Discovery
Your services, customers, locations, competitors and what you want more of.
2
Audit
The technical foundation, key pages, current search visibility and route to enquiry are reviewed, and the issues and gaps holding important pages back are identified.
3
Priorities
What to fix first, what can wait and what needs content or development time are agreed.
Every month after that
4
Implementation
The agreed changes are made to the website, pages, content and business information, depending on scope.
5
Measure and refine
Search Console and analytics data, where available, show what has changed and guide the next round of work, with updates in plain English.
What SEO can and can't do
What the work can control
• A technically sound website that search engines can crawl and index
• Clear, useful pages matched to how customers search
• Accurate business information and local signals
• A clear route from search result to enquiry
What no one can promise
• A specific ranking position
• A set level of traffic, leads or sales
• Inclusion in map results or AI-generated answers
• Fast results in a competitive market
Rankings, traffic and leads are not guaranteed, by 53Marketing or by anyone else. Some technical and on-page fixes can be made quickly. Meaningful changes in search visibility take consistent work, which is why SEO typically needs 6 months or longer.

SEO services FAQs
How much does SEO cost?
+
SEO support starts from £1,200 per month and typically needs 6 months or longer. The price depends on the size and condition of your website, how competitive your market is and how much content is needed. You get a written quote before any work starts. 53Marketing is not VAT registered, so no VAT is added.
How long does SEO take?
+
It depends on your starting point, competition, website condition and the scope of work. Some technical and on-page improvements can be made quickly, but meaningful improvements in search visibility take consistent work, which is why SEO typically needs 6 months or longer.
What's included in SEO support?
+
The scope is agreed for each business, based on your website, goals, market and starting point. An initial review shows what's worth doing first, what can wait and what isn't worth doing, so the work is prioritised around your situation.
Can you guarantee rankings, traffic or leads?
+
No. Rankings, traffic and leads depend on competition and on factors nobody outside the search engines controls. What can be improved is the technical quality of your website, the usefulness of your pages, the accuracy of your business information and the route to getting in touch.
Do you provide SEO audits as well as follow-up implementation?
+
Yes. An audit can identify technical issues, content gaps, internal-linking problems and conversion barriers. Where it makes sense, 53Marketing can also implement the prioritised improvements rather than leaving you with a report alone. One-off audits are scoped separately from monthly SEO support.
Can you help with WordPress and WooCommerce SEO?
+
Yes. SEO work on WordPress and WooCommerce sites can include page structure, templates, product and category pages, internal links, redirects and mobile layouts.
Can you help a small business with SEO?
+
Yes. A small business doesn't need to target every keyword or publish large volumes of content. A focused plan might start with a technically sound website, clearer core service pages, local SEO improvements and content that answers real customer questions.
Do I need a new website before starting SEO?
+
Usually not. Most SEO work improves the website you already have. If the site can't be fixed sensibly, you'll be told why, and a rebuild is quoted separately.
