Based in Cape Town, doing SEO in Cape Town and the Winelands
Capetonians search by area: Claremont, Sea Point, Durbanville. We give each area you serve its own page, written to rank, and look after your Google Business Profile so you show on the map as well.
What's included
Every plan covers the five things that decide whether Google shows your business to people nearby.
Having a new website built? SEO goes in from the start, not added afterwards.
Areas
Someone in Tokai doesn't search for "plumber Cape Town". They search for "plumber Tokai", and the business with a good Tokai page often wins. These are the areas we write for most.
| Area | Suburbs | A search we'd target |
|---|---|---|
| Northern Suburbs | Durbanville, Bellville, Brackenfell, Kraaifontein | aircon service Durbanville |
| Southern Suburbs | Claremont, Rondebosch, Constantia, Tokai | plumber Tokai |
| City Bowl and Atlantic Seaboard | Sea Point, Green Point, Gardens, Camps Bay | electrician Sea Point |
| Blouberg, Table View and Milnerton | Table View, Parklands, Milnerton | pool repairs Table View |
| Somerset West and Helderberg | Somerset West, Strand, Gordon's Bay | solar installer Somerset West |
| Stellenbosch and the Winelands | Stellenbosch, Paarl, Franschhoek | builder Stellenbosch |
Your area not listed? We write pages for wherever you work.
Local SEO
When someone searches "electrician near me", Google shows three businesses on a map before any website. Which three depends mostly on your Google Business Profile, your reviews and how close you are.
We set your profile up properly, keep it active every week and help you ask for reviews at the right moment: on the day the job is done.
The first six months
| When | The work | What you'll notice |
|---|---|---|
| Month 1 | Audit, technical fixes, listings, Google profile tidy up | A faster site and correct details everywhere |
| Months 2 and 3 | Main service pages rewritten, first new area pages live | Your site showing for more searches, lower down at first |
| Months 4 to 6 | More pages, links and content, steady improvements | Movement onto page one for some searches, more calls from Google |
The steps show work piling up, not a promised ranking. Every month's report lists exactly what was done, so you never pay for work you can't see.

SEO and Google Ads

Questions
Local SEO gets you onto Google's map and into searches for your area. General SEO gets your website pages ranking. Most Cape Town businesses need both, and our plans include both.
No. We write the pages; you check the facts only you know, like prices, brands and areas.
Only if something is stopping you from ranking. Usually it's pages and wording, not design.
If you need calls this month, Ads. If you want calls without paying per click next year, SEO. Many businesses do both.
Yes. Most of our clients are owner run trades and practices.
Yes, in Cape Town by appointment. After that, most of it happens on WhatsApp and a monthly call.
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.
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.
No, and be careful of anyone who does. We promise the work and show it to you every month.
You keep everything: the pages, the profile and the listings. It's month to month with 30 days' notice.
