HQ SEO

HQ SEO is an SEO agency based in Cardiff. Established in 2012 with the sole goal to increase profits through smart result focused digital marketing, technical search engine optimisation & content marketing services, at our core, we want to help business owners succeed and gain more free time so that they can give their customers more value. Our 100% proven system - will give you the results you want and enable clients to scale their companies to the next level. - Thomas Buckland, Founder, HQ SEO Ltd. HQ SEO was developed to become an ROI focused SEO company. All return on investment marketing must start with technical auditing and analysis. In the organic search space, the start of any successful campaign is a full technical SEO audit. At a very broad level this boils down to a technical website audit, user experience quality audit, keyword research, competition analysis and building a strategy around how the business will attract customers through the search engines. At our SEO agency our auditing involves the use of multiple industry softwares as well as custom developed tools and processes in house, as a result this enables us to find any issues (and hence resolve those issues) at a far faster rate than relying on one single software or tool-suite. The digital marketing strategy a business should use is dependent on their product, service or style of business. For example, a local business owner should not use the same organic search marketing strategies as a SAAS based product. Therefore we build out each individual client campaign very differently as the goals of the business and the KPIs will be very different. The larger KPI’s will stay the same; sales, customer acquisition etc, but the method by which these are achieved changes dramatically. This is also the core reason why cookie cutter SEO services do not work. All campaigns we build are bespoke, which is one of the reasons we can generate 1000% ROI's within 12 months 2. Audit Resolutions & On-page Optimisation Once we’ve established what the issues of the website are, we can begin to remedy these though technical optimisation & on-page corrections based on our keyword research and competition analysis. This process varies from client to client, depending on the size of the website, number of issues and severity of issues. Any SEO company should start by building an entire site structure and technical audit before touching on-page optimisation. With searcher intent becoming increasingly important in organic rankings, everything needs to start with the user/searcher first and not specific keywords or optimisation. On-page optimisation runs alongside the content creation and link building phases below and is something we see very good ranking improvements from alone. 100% of clients have seen a ranking improvement when audit resolution and on-page optimisation is completed. 3. Content Creation, Digital PR & Link Building Backlinks or “links” is the sole reason Google is where they are today. Google determined early on that the value/relevancy/trust of a website can be determined by the number of other websites linking to this said site. – In simple terms, the more high-quality links a website generates, the higher this website will rank in the search engines. At our SEO company we’ve built a powerful, reliable system that generates high quality authority links getting clients featured in news sources and on authority websites in their industry resulting in a massive increase in organic rankings. When you leverage the value of technical optimisation, content marketing and link building you explode the profitability of your digital marketing campaigns because each individual element works together in a streamlined way to aid organic rankings & traffic generation without being limited by the specification of your marketing channel. The HQ SEO team are super knowledgeable about E-commerce SEO and have already made a big impact to our business. They're always on hand to answer questions and are always good at explaining to us the impact of changes across the site and constantly helping us keep honest to our long term goals at Evopure. Our SEO company originally started by only delivering local digital marketing campaigns (a long long time ago). These generally tend to have less competition and target a very specific set of pre-determined keywords. To determine a baseline profitability of a campaign we created a proprietary tool to help calculate return on investment of a digital campaign which prospects can use to determine the potential of a well structured SEO campaign. Our team of SEO experts can work closely with local businesses as more than just technical SEO consultants and more as high level marketing advisers. Business to business digital marketing and technical SEO campaigns make up the majority of our client base at HQ SEO. We've helped build and rank over 50 sites to help businesses achieve more leads and sales through Google. As with all our search engine optimisation campaigns the sole goal is to generate a 10X return on investment for clients within a 12 month period. As a result we've built a very successful group of clients who have worked with us for close to 5 years in many cases. Software-As-A-Service search engine optimisation on the face of it is very similar to business to business with a few key core differences. Software as a service providers need to pre-sell their software with it's core unique selling points, benefits and what differentiates them from their competitors on their website and more specifically in their content. This content should be built and promoted using digital PR & advanced content marketing to help increase exposure and rank for higher funnel search terms.

Ecommerce SEO is now something our SEO company specialises in, you can see more about our Ecommerce clients results on the case studies page. I have a good knowledge of SEO but don’t have the resources to carry out the service myself so I’ve always outsourced this work to ‘SEO experts’ in the in the past but never got the results I wanted.   However after speaking with Tom from HQSEO I was confident he would produce results, so I gave him a project and he completed that in the timeframe he set out with very good results. Tom is now working on other projects of mine and I have complete confidence in his ability. Highly recommend and very professional service. I didn't really understand SEO until I contacted the company. I am happy with there work and I'm starting to see better rankings and visits to my website. Hands down the top SEO company in South Wales, potentially the UK. Being a local web designer I was looking to get some exposure from the search engines by ranking higher for web designers in my area. I came online with HQ SEO and saw some really good movement in the opening 2 months. Now we are generating 3-4 new clients every month and are on page 1 for our most competitive keyword. Highly recommend the service. I used Toms service to inject some SEO power into our site. Over a 3 month period he managed to increase the position of a number of keywords, including a mid Google page 1 position for an very competitive and highly searched keyword. I’ve found Tom to be very knowledgeable and helpful and would certainly use again in the future.

HQ seo helped me start up my Interior Design company. Initially with the logo and website design but then moving into online marketing. We've seen steady growth from month 3 and the company continues to expand. Would highly recommend their design and online marketing services.

Tom & HQ SEO have been great in helping me grow our eCommerce site. Having been recommended to contact Tom, I can only say the results speak for themselves. They conducted a thorough SEO audit, cleaned up alot of rubbish that was hurting our site and helped me redesign the look and feel of the site too.
