Helping small businesses get found on Google; without agency fees or long-term contracts
Whether you have a brand new website or one that has been sitting quietly online for years, I help UK small businesses improve their visibility in search results. From on-page optimisation to local SEO and keyword research, I offer practical, honest SEO support that makes a real difference.
Affordable SEO services are perfect for small businesses that want to be found by local customers and grow their online presence without paying agency-level fees. If you have a website that is not bringing in enquiries, or you are starting fresh and want to get it right from the beginning; this is for you.
I work with businesses across the UK including:
If your customers search for your services on Google and you are not showing up; I can help.
I want to be straightforward with you. I am not a specialist SEO agency, and I will never claim to be. What I offer is practical, evidence-based SEO work that is particularly well suited to small businesses competing in local and niche markets. I focus on the areas that make the biggest difference to businesses at your stage of growth.
On-page SEO is the foundation of any good search performance. I audit and optimise the elements of your website that search engines use to understand and rank your content; title tags, meta descriptions, heading structure, internal linking, image alt text, and page speed. Many small business websites have significant gaps in these fundamentals, and fixing them can lead to noticeable improvements in visibility without the need for expensive ongoing campaigns.
For most small businesses, local visibility matters more than national rankings. I optimise your website and online presence so that customers searching in your area can find you. This includes optimising your Google Business Profile, ensuring your name, address, and phone number are consistent across the web, and structuring your website content around the locations and services your customers are actually searching for.
Understanding what your potential customers are actually typing into Google is the starting point for any effective SEO strategy. I carry out thorough keyword research to identify the terms that offer the best opportunity for your business; balancing search volume, competition, and commercial intent. This research shapes the content and structure of your website so that every page is working toward a clear goal.
If you are commissioning a new website through Solira, SEO is built in from the start. Every site I build includes optimised titles, meta descriptions, heading hierarchy, schema markup, and fast loading times. Getting the foundations right during the build is far more effective than attempting to retrofit SEO onto a poorly structured site later.
I will never promise you a guaranteed first-page ranking. Anyone who does is either misleading you or referring to terms so obscure they are not worth ranking for. What I will promise is transparent, well-reasoned work that improves your position over time and focuses on results that actually matter to your business.
With a BSc in Astrophysics and an MSc in Computer Science, I approach SEO the same way I approach web design; methodically, backed by research, and focused on what the data actually says rather than guesswork.
You are never locked into a retainer you do not need. I offer flexible arrangements that suit your budget and your goals.
You deal directly with me. No account managers, no handovers, no confusion about who is responsible for your results.
Tradespeople rely almost entirely on local search to win new business. When someone in your area searches for a plumber, an electrician, or a roofer, your website needs to be in front of them. I build and optimise websites for trades businesses that are designed to rank locally and convert visitors into calls and enquiries.
When a pipe bursts, people reach for their phone and search for a plumber nearby. If your website is not appearing in those local results, you are losing jobs to competitors every single day. I optimise plumbing websites for local search terms that bring in genuine enquiries from people who need your services right now.
Emergency electrical searches happen fast and the decision is made in seconds. Your website needs to appear at the top of local results and make it immediately easy for the customer to call you. I help electricians rank for local search terms and ensure their websites are fast, mobile-friendly, and built to convert.
Building and roofing businesses often rely on word of mouth, but local search is increasingly where new customers start their journey. I help builders and roofers rank for the terms their customers are searching, from "local builder" to specific services like extensions, loft conversions, or flat roof repairs.
Trusted by local trades and small businesses across the UK.
Professional service businesses face a different kind of challenge. Potential clients are not making impulse decisions; they are researching, comparing, and looking for a firm they can trust. Your SEO strategy needs to reflect that.
Legal search is competitive, but many law firms have websites that are poorly structured and under-optimised. I help solicitors rank for their specific practice areas in their local market, ensuring their website conveys authority and makes it straightforward for prospective clients to get in touch.
Accountants compete in a crowded local market where most businesses are searching for someone they can trust nearby. I optimise accounting firm websites for local search terms and service-specific keywords that attract the right kind of client enquiries.
Patients searching for a dentist are almost always looking locally. I help dental practices rank for location-based search terms, optimise their Google Business Profile, and ensure their website builds the confidence a patient needs before booking an appointment.
I am based in Birch Vale, near New Mills in the High Peak, and I understand the local market across Stockport, Greater Manchester, Derbyshire, and Cheshire. If you are a small business in these areas looking to rank higher in local search results; I can help.
I provide local SEO services to businesses across the UK including:
I also work with businesses across the rest of the United Kingdom. Distance is never a barrier.
We talk about your business, your current online visibility, and what you want to achieve. I ask the right questions and listen carefully before making any recommendations.
I carry out a review of your current website and keyword research to identify where the opportunities are and where the gaps are.
I present you with a clear, practical plan. No jargon, no vague promises; just a straightforward explanation of what I will do and why.
I carry out the agreed work, whether that is on-page optimisation, local SEO setup, or keyword-led content improvements.
We review the results together and decide on next steps. SEO is an ongoing process, but I will always be honest about what is working and what needs adjusting.
Initial SEO setup and core optimisation work is usually completed within the first few weeks. No technical knowledge is needed.
SEO starting from £75
SEO services from Solira are priced based on the scope of work involved. I provide a fixed quote after a free, no-obligation consultation so you know exactly what you are paying for before any work begins. There are no hidden fees and no long-term contracts.
Your competitors are investing in SEO right now. Every day your website sits unoptimised is another day a potential customer finds them instead of you. Whether you are starting from scratch or want to improve what you already have, I make the process straightforward, affordable, and completely transparent.
SEO is not an overnight fix, and anyone who tells you otherwise is not being honest. For most small businesses, meaningful improvements in local visibility can be seen within three to six months of consistent work. Some on-page fixes can show results faster, particularly if your site has significant technical issues that are currently holding it back.
No, and I would not trust anyone who said they could. Google's algorithm is complex and constantly changing. What I can guarantee is honest, well-executed work focused on the factors that genuinely influence your rankings.
Not necessarily. In many cases I can improve the SEO performance of your existing website significantly. If your current site has more fundamental problems, such as poor structure, slow loading times, or outdated technology, I will tell you honestly and we can discuss the best approach.
On-page SEO refers to optimising the content and technical elements of your website itself; titles, headings, content, and structure. Local SEO focuses specifically on helping your business appear in location-based searches, including your Google Business Profile and local directory listings. Most small businesses benefit from both.
Yes. I offer flexible ongoing support depending on your needs and budget. We can discuss what makes sense for your business after the initial consultation.
I will respond within 24 hours. We will arrange a free, no-obligation consultation and I will provide a fixed quote based on your specific needs.
