Our local SEO agency blends technical expertise, strategic content, and data-driven insights to maximise search engine visibility and drive sustainable growth for Chester’s leading businesses.

There have been many changes to the search landscape since Click was established in 2003, but as an SEO agency we have grown and evolved alongside the industry, keeping brands in Chester at the top of the results pages, as well as their respective industry fields.

Stage 1: Onboarding

+

We begin by integrating you into our systems and establishing clear communication protocols to ensure a seamless and productive working relationship. This involves setting up project management tools, scheduling regular meetings – including face-to-face sessions for those in Chester and the surrounding areas, and establishing preferred communication channels. We believe that open and consistent communication is key to a successful partnership.

Stage 2: Understanding your needs, goals, & values

+

We will conduct a deep dive into your business objectives, target audience, and core values to create a tailored SEO strategy. This involves collaborative workshops, data analysis, and detailed discussions to ensure we have a thorough understanding of your business landscape, both in Chester and nationally. We will work to align our SEO strategy with your specific goals, whether it’s increasing brand awareness, driving sales, or establishing thought leadership. Understanding your target audience and their online behaviour, helps us to develop content and optimisation tactics that resonate with them and ultimately improve your search visibility.

Stage 3: Industry tools & our technologies

+

We use a comprehensive suite of cutting-edge SEO tools and technologies to gather data, meticulously track progress, and gain a significant competitive edge for our clients. This includes advanced analytics platforms, keyword research tools, rank tracking software, local SEO analysis specific to Chester, and website crawling and auditing tools. We leverage these resources to gain deep insights into your website’s current performance to obtain a benchmark level. From this we identify optimisation opportunities, monitor the impact of our strategies, and stay ahead of industry trends.

Stage 4: Target audience & user intent

+

We work with you to identify your ideal customer profile both nationally and in Chester. This involves understanding their demographics, interests, pain points, and online behaviour. Simultaneously, we delve into understanding user intent, which means discerning the ‘why’ behind their searches. Are they looking for information, to make a purchase, to compare options, or something else entirely? By combining a detailed understanding of your ideal customer and their search intent, we can create highly relevant content that not only resonates with them on a personal level but is also optimised to rank well in search engine results pages (SERPs).

Stage 5: Technical auditing

+

Our comprehensive technical auditing process involves a thorough examination of your website’s architecture, code, and server configuration to identify and resolve any technical issues that may be hindering its performance in search engine results. We meticulously analyse factors such as site speed, crawlability, indexability, broken links, and schema markup. Addressing these technical elements, ensures that your website is easily accessible to search engines, providing a solid foundation for effective SEO in Chester and improved visibility.

Stage 6: Keyword research, strategy & planning

+

We conduct in-depth research to uncover what your target audience is searching for, including long-tail variations and question-based queries. Based on this research, we develop a strategic plan to target these keywords effectively, optimising your website content and structure to improve search engine rankings and attract the right visitors. This involves aligning keywords with specific pages, creating content, analysing competitor strategies, and continuously monitoring and refining the strategy to adapt to evolving search trends and user behaviour both within Chester and nationally, ensuring your website remains optimised for the most relevant and high-performing keywords.

Stage 7: Commercial content analysis

+

We conduct a thorough evaluation of your existing website content, meticulously examining each page to pinpoint opportunities for improvement and optimisation, with a specific focus on maximising conversions. This involves analysing the content’s structure, messaging, calls to action, and overall effectiveness in driving desired user actions. We identify areas where content can be enhanced, rewritten, or added to better align with your target audience’s needs, search intent, and conversion goals. For brands local to Chester where driving traffic to physical locations is important, we can specifically tailor certain content pieces to attract traffic from the local area. This stage also includes analysing whether your content adheres to Google’s E-E-A-T guidelines and identifying opportunities for content improvement. Optimising your website content for conversions, helps us turn your website visitors into customers and drive tangible business results.

Stage 8: Competitor benchmarking

+

We conduct a comprehensive analysis of your competitors’ SEO strategies to identify their strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for differentiation. This involves evaluating their keyword targeting, content quality, backlink profiles, technical SEO, and overall online presence in Chester, and nationally. Understanding where your competitors’ are thriving, and where they are falling behind, is crucial for refining your own SEO strategy to gain a competitive advantage.

This also helps us to identify gaps in the market, areas where your brand can excel, and opportunities to outperform your competitors in search engine rankings.

Stage 9: User focused content

+

At the heart of our SEO strategy lies the creation of valuable, informative, and engaging content that not only satisfies user intent but also significantly improves the overall website experience. We believe that content should always prioritise the user’s needs and provide them with the information they seek in a clear, concise, and compelling manner. This involves creating a diverse range of content formats, such as blog posts, articles, videos, infographics, and interactive tools, all tailored to address specific user queries and preferences – all contributing to improved search engine rankings and overall online visibility. This also means creating useful content that will drive local traffic to physical locations in Chester and the surrounding area.

Stage 10: Content marketing

+

This stage is where we bring your brand’s story to life through captivating, high-quality, and engaging content that aligns with your target audience’s needs and search intent. This includes developing creative campaigns that capture attention, spark conversations, and drive organic visibility. A key component of this is Digital PR, where we will identify opportunities to pitch these creative content pieces to journalists, bloggers, and industry influencers. This not only secures valuable backlinks but also increases brand awareness, builds authority, promotes brands locally around Chester, and drives referral traffic.

Stage 11: Execution

+

This phase marks the active implementation of the entire SEO strategy. Our team diligently executes all the planned optimisations, content creation, local optimisations for Chester and technical fixes. We monitor progress closely, make real-time adjustments as needed, and maintain open communication throughout the process. This is crucial for driving tangible results and ensuring the SEO strategy translates into measurable improvements in your website’s visibility and performance. We prioritise efficiency and effectiveness to maximise the impact of our efforts and achieve the desired outcomes.

Stage 12: Reporting

+

We believe in complete transparency and accountability. Therefore, we provide regular, comprehensive, and easy-to-understand reports on key SEO metrics to meticulously track progress and clearly demonstrate the impact of our work. These reports include insights into website traffic, keyword rankings, organic search performance, visibility within Chester and surrounding areas, an ongoing issues log, content tracker, and conversion rates.

We also provide detailed analysis and actionable insights derived from the data, enabling you to understand the effectiveness of our SEO strategies and the return on your investment.

This open communication and data-driven approach ensures that you are always informed about the performance of your SEO campaign and the progress toward achieving your business goals.

Stage 13: Ongoing communication
