SEO for Pretoria businesses
Pretoria searches for a plumber and for a loodgieter. Your pages can rank for both.
Local
We work with Pretoria businesses.
Pretoria searches for a plumber and for a loodgieter. Those are different result pages, and a site written only in English misses half of them. Where it makes sense, pages can rank for both.
The other Pretoria truth is spread. Centurion, Menlyn, Lynnwood, Montana, Moreleta Park and Hatfield are different searches with different competitors, and one "Pretoria" page cannot rank in all of them. Each area you serve gets its own page.
We check which searches exist in both languages for your trade before writing anything, then write the pages that answer them.
Searches
| What they type | What we'd do |
|---|---|
| loodgieter Centurion | A Centurion page for the Afrikaans searches, where they exist for your trade |
| plumber Centurion | The English version, ranking alongside, not instead of |
| dentist Montana | A Montana page plus a map listing with reviews |
| electrician Menlyn | A Menlyn page with jobs done nearby |
| air conditioning installation Lynnwood | A service page naming the brands you install and the areas around Lynnwood |
Areas

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.
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.

By industry
Trades:pages in English and Afrikaans where both searches exist for the service.
Medical practices:treatment pages that answer the questions patients ask before they book.
Professional services:plain answer pages for the questions clients research first.
SEO and Google Ads
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
If your customers search in Afrikaans, yes for the main ones. We check which searches exist in both languages for your trade before writing anything.
Usually poorly. Where a real search exists in both languages, separate pages work better. They are not duplicates, they are genuinely different searches.
No. Your Google profile can hide your address and show the areas you serve, and your pages carry the local wording.
Yes, in person in Cape Town by appointment.
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.
