Google handles more than nine in ten UK searches, so where your business appears shapes how many customers find and consider it. The first three organic results attract about 55.2% of clicks, while visibility drops sharply below the leading positions.

Search is also moving into AI-led answers. Customers can now shortlist a provider through Google AI, ChatGPT or Gemini before visiting a website. That is why AI search visibility is included in every plan we run.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your London SEO Company Questions Answered

View Our Services

What is an SEO agency?

An SEO agency specialises in optimising websites to rank higher in search engine results pages, enhancing online visibility and driving organic traffic to the site. Using a combination of technical, content and off-page strategies, these agencies aim to improve your site’s performance and user experience.

How does an SEO agency improve my website's ranking?

An SEO agency employs a variety of techniques, including keyword research, content creation and optimisation, technical SEO adjustments, link building and competitor analysis. These strategies are designed to meet search engines’ criteria and improve your site’s relevance and authority for targeted search queries.

What does First Place SEO offer?

First Place SEO provides SEO, local SEO, technical SEO, Google Business Profile management, link building, ecommerce SEO, digital PR, PPC, Google Ads management and web design. Explore our SEO services to find the right support for your business.

Is local SEO different from regular SEO?

Yes, local SEO focuses on optimising your online presence to attract more business from relevant local searches. This includes optimising for Google Business Profile, local keywords and citations, which is different from broader, non-location-specific SEO strategies.

How long does it take to see results from SEO?

Results from SEO can typically be seen from 3 to 6 months after implementation, depending on the competitiveness of your industry, the current state of your website and the effectiveness of the strategies employed. SEO is a long-term investment that yields compounding benefits over time.

How often will I receive updates and reports?

Monthly. You get a report covering the numbers that matter, including traffic, rankings and conversions, plus time to talk it through and agree what happens next. If something significant changes between reports, you hear about it then rather than waiting for the next one.

Why is competitor analysis important in SEO?

Competitor analysis helps identify what strategies are working for your competitors in the search rankings. By understanding their strengths and weaknesses, an SEO agency can tailor your strategy to capitalise on opportunities and differentiate your online presence.

What makes a good SEO agency?

A good SEO agency should have a track record of successful projects, expertise in the latest SEO trends and algorithm updates, transparency in reporting and communication, and a deep understanding of your industry. They should offer customised strategies rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.

Can an SEO agency guarantee first-page rankings?

No. Google's own guidance for businesses hiring an SEO says that no one can guarantee a number one ranking, and warns you to be wary of anyone who claims they can. What a good agency can do is work on the things within its control, such as your site's technical health, the relevance of your content and the quality of the links pointing at it, then report honestly on what moves and what does not. You can read Google's guidance on hiring an SEO (opens in a new tab) yourself.
