Local

When the referral gets Googled

We work with Bloemfontein businesses.

Bloemfontein still runs on word of mouth, but the referral is only the start. Someone recommends you, the customer types your name or your trade into Google, and whatever they find decides whether the phone rings.

So the first job here is looking right when you are looked up: a Google profile with reviews that mention the work, your name and number the same everywhere, and pages that say plainly what you do and where.

We write for Westdene, Brandwag, Langenhovenpark, Bayswater and Fichardt Park, plus the rest of the Free State you cover.

What's included

What's included in every plan

Every plan covers the five things that decide whether Google shows your business to people nearby.

  • Technical fixes.Speed, mobile, broken pages and anything stopping Google from reading your site, sorted in the first month.
  • Service and area pages.A page for each main service and each area you cover, written in the words people actually type.
  • Google Business Profile.Categories, services, photos and weekly posts, so you show on the map for "near me" searches.
  • Listings and links.Your name, address and number made the same on the South African directories Google trusts, plus links from relevant local sites.
  • AI search.Clear, consistent details so ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI answers can name you.

Having a new website built? SEO goes in from the start, not added afterwards.

The first six months

WhenThe workWhat you'll notice
Month 1Audit, technical fixes, listings, Google profile tidy upA faster site and correct details everywhere
Months 2 and 3Main service pages rewritten, first new area pages liveYour site showing for more searches, lower down at first
Months 4 to 6More pages, links and content, steady improvementsMovement onto page one for some searches, more calls from Google

How to choose

How to choose an SEO company

Comparing SEO companies? Ask any company you speak to, us included, these six questions.

  1. Who will actually do the work, and can I speak to them?
  2. Will I get a written list of what was done every month?
  3. Do I own the website, the pages and the Google profile if we stop?
  4. Do you promise first position? The right answer is no.
  5. Is it month to month, or am I locked in?
  6. What would you fix first on my site, and why?

Our answers: Trudwell, yes, yes, no, month to month, and the free SEO check shows you the last one.

By industry

SEO for your industry

Trades:pages that back up the referral when it gets Googled.

Practices:treatment pages plus reviews, the two things patients check before booking.

Professional services:plain answer pages for the questions clients research first.

SEO and Google Ads

SEO and Google Ads together

SEO takes months to build and keeps paying back. Google Ads brings calls from the first week. Most clients start with Ads for their busiest services while the SEO pages settle in, then spend less on Ads as the pages start to rank.

Questions

SEO in Bloemfontein: questions

Most of our work is referrals. Do we even need SEO?

That is exactly when you need it. Every referral gets Googled before the call, and your reviews, listing and website decide whether they phone you or the next name.

Can you get us more reviews?

We help you ask at the right moment, on the day the job is done, and show you how to answer them. The asking stays yours, the system is ours.

Do we need an office in Bloemfontein to rank there?

No. Your Google profile can hide your address and show the areas you serve, and your pages carry the local wording.

Can we meet?

Yes, in person in Cape Town by appointment.

How much does SEO cost?

Local plans are R4,500 to R8,500 a month, ecommerce stores from R12,840. Month to month either way, and the price depends on how many areas and services you want to rank for.

How long until I rank?

Three to six months for most local businesses, longer where competitors have been at it for years. You'll see the work much sooner: pages fixed, new pages live, listings corrected.

Can you guarantee first position?

No, and be careful of anyone who does. We promise the work and show it to you every month.

What happens if I stop?

You keep everything: the pages, the profile and the listings. It's month to month with 30 days' notice.
