SEO is the work that helps Google understand what you do and where, so you have a fair chance of appearing when someone nearby searches for it. Every Nerdsharks site is built with the basics done properly: clear page titles and headings written around what customers actually search, structured data that tells Google your business type, services and area, a fast-loading site, and your site connected to Google Search Console. We also set up or tidy your Google Business Profile, which drives the map results. Nobody can honestly guarantee a ranking, and we will not pretend to; what we guarantee is the groundwork is right.

## How it works

1. **Pages written for real searches** - We write each page around the words your customers use, like "emergency electrician in Exeter", and use them naturally, not stuffed in.
2. **Structured data added** - Behind the scenes we mark up your business name, services, area and contact details in the format search engines read.
3. **Search Console connected** - We submit your site to Google and connect Search Console, so we can see how it is being found and spot problems early.
4. **Google Business Profile sorted** - We set up or tidy your profile with the right categories, services, hours and photos, and link it to your website.

## Why it matters

- **A fair shot at local searches** - Most people looking for a local business search Google first. A site with the basics missing can struggle to appear at all, however good the work.
- **Fast on phones** - Google says page experience matters, and customers leave slow sites. Our sites are built lean so they load quickly on mobile.
- **No SEO cold-caller needed** - The groundwork is included in your plan. If you want to go further across more towns, the Local SEO pack is £49 a month.

## Questions

### Will my website rank on the first page of Google?

No one can honestly guarantee a first-page ranking, and Google says it does not accept payment for ranking. What we do is get every foundation right - content, structured data, speed, Search Console and your Business Profile - so you are competing on a level footing.

### Is SEO included in the price?

Yes, on-page SEO, structured data, Search Console and Google Business Profile setup are included on every plan, including Monthly at £99 a month.

### What is the difference between SEO setup and the Local SEO pack?

SEO setup is the groundwork included in every site. The Local SEO pack, at £49 a month, adds a page for each area and service you cover, directory listings and a monthly ranking report.

### How long does SEO take to work?

SEO usually takes weeks to months to show results, depending on how competitive your industry and area are. Your Google Business Profile often starts bringing calls sooner than the website itself.
