Make the site you already have rank and load faster.
What is SEO and speed optimization?
SEO and speed optimization is corrective work on a website you already own: fixing Core Web Vitals, on-page structure, schema, and local search signals so the site ranks and loads properly. It starts at $799 as a fixed-scope project quoted after an audit, not an open-ended monthly retainer, and it does not require rebuilding the site.

What's included
Make the site you already have rank and load faster.
You do not always need a new website. This is website development and SEO sold together, not as two separate invoices, for a site that just needs fixing rather than rebuilding. If the structure is sound, the faster route is to fix what is slowing it down and what is stopping it from ranking. We audit the site, show you what is actually costing you traffic, and quote a fixed price to fix it. No rebuild, no retainer you cannot leave. For WordPress sites specifically, that usually means plugin audits, caching configuration, and image compression on top of the same Core Web Vitals fixes. These wordpress speed optimization services are what most sites are actually missing. Common findings on a first pass: a page missing a title element entirely, or one with a vague, non-descriptive title that never matches what people actually search for.

Four patterns account for most of the work. All four are diagnosable before you commit to anything.
Search Console says the site fails Core Web Vitals
Usually oversized images, render-blocking scripts, and layout that shifts as the page loads. All three are fixable without touching the design.
The site ranks for its own name and nothing else
A structural problem. Pages compete with each other, headings do not describe the content, and there is no internal linking telling Google what matters.
Invisible in local and "near me" searches
Missing or inconsistent Google Business Profile, no local schema, and citations that disagree about your address or phone number.
A previous agency added plugins instead of fixing causes
Caching and optimization plugins stacked on top of each other, often fighting one another. We remove the layers and fix what is underneath.
Approach
Fixed-scope project vs an open SEO retainer
Most SEO is sold monthly because the work is hard to see. Ours is sold as a project because the findings are written down.

Overview
SEO & Speed Optimization that works for your business
You do not always need a new website. If the structure underneath is sound, the faster and cheaper route is to fix what is slowing it down and what is stopping it from ranking.
This service is exactly that: a technical audit of the site you already own, a plain list of what is costing you traffic, and a fixed price to fix it. No rebuild, and no monthly retainer you cannot walk away from.
What the work covers
01
A real audit, not a tool export
We crawl the site, read the Search Console data, and check field performance. You get findings ranked by what actually costs you traffic, not a 90-page automated PDF.
02
Core Web Vitals fixed at the source
Largest Contentful Paint, Interaction to Next Paint, and Cumulative Layout Shift addressed in images, code, and hosting rather than masked with a caching plugin.
03
On-page structure and schema
Titles, headings, internal links, and structured data corrected so search engines can tell what each page is for.
04
Local search signals
Google Business Profile setup, local schema, and citation consistency, which is what decides whether nearby customers find you at all.
05
You see the before and after
Scores documented before we start and after we finish, on the same pages, so the improvement is measurable rather than asserted.
06
No retainer required
This is a fixed-scope project starting at $799. If you want ongoing monitoring afterwards, care plans start at $99 a month and cancel with a month of notice.
Who this is for
This is the shortlist we actually work from. If your business is on it, the process below is already built around how you get customers. If it is not, say so on the call and we will tell you honestly whether this is the right service or a different one.

How we approach SEO and speed
We audit first and quote second, so you are paying to fix named problems rather than buying a vague monthly service. Everything we change is something we can point at in your own data, and everything we cannot fix without a rebuild we tell you about instead of quietly billing around it.
This is the area of web work with the most overselling in it, so here is the honest version before you spend anything.
Google rewards page experience, it does not sell rankings
Google states that Core Web Vitals, alongside other page experience aspects, align with what its core ranking systems reward. That is real, and it is not the same as a guaranteed jump to position one.
The thresholds are specific
Largest Contentful Paint under 2.5 seconds, Interaction to Next Paint under 200 milliseconds, Cumulative Layout Shift under 0.1, all measured at the 75th percentile of real page loads.
Lab scores move immediately, real data does not
PageSpeed Insights reflects a fix straight away. The field data Google actually uses is collected from real visits over time, so Search Console lags behind the work by weeks.
Speed alone will not rescue thin content
If the page does not answer the query, making it load faster changes nothing. We will tell you when the problem is content rather than performance.
Some sites genuinely need rebuilding
If the theme is the bottleneck, patching it is money spent twice. When that is the case we say so and point you at the redesign service instead.
Local visibility is a separate lever
Google ranks local results on relevance, distance, and prominence. Links and reviews feed prominence, and no amount of on-page work substitutes for them.
Tools & Platforms
What We Audit and Fix With
The same tools Google publishes its own guidance around, plus the crawlers and monitors we use to prove the change.
The scope is deliberately narrow so the price can stay fixed. These fall outside it.
Writing new page content or blog articles, though we will tell you which pages need it
Link building, guest posting, or any form of paid link placement
Paid search, social, or advertising management
Hosting fees, CDN subscriptions, and third-party tool costs, paid directly to those providers
A full rebuild, if the audit shows the theme or platform is the real bottleneck

FAQ
SEO & Speed Optimization questions
Common questions about our seo & speed optimization service. These cover what is actually included, how the work is scoped and priced, how long it takes, and what happens after launch. Every quote is fixed and itemized in writing before work begins. If your question is not answered here, ask us and we will reply directly.
It helps, but nobody honest will promise a position. Google states that Core Web Vitals, alongside other page experience aspects, align with what its core ranking systems reward. That is real, and it is not a guaranteed jump to page one. If your pages do not answer the query, making them faster will not fix that.
Lab tools like PageSpeed Insights reflect a fix immediately, so we can prove the work straight away. The field data Google actually uses is collected from real visits over time, so Search Console lags behind by weeks. Ranking movement, where it happens, follows that rather than the day we finish.
The audit answers that, and sometimes the answer is that you do not need us for this at all. If the structure underneath is sound, fixing it is faster and cheaper than rebuilding. If the theme itself is the bottleneck, we will say so and point you at the redesign service instead of billing around the problem.
They are three measures Google publishes: Largest Contentful Paint under 2.5 seconds, Interaction to Next Paint under 200 milliseconds, and Cumulative Layout Shift under 0.1, all read at the 75th percentile of real page loads. You can check yours in Search Console, and the audit reports them alongside what is causing any failure.
Yes, that is most of this work. We start with a technical audit to understand how the site is put together and flag anything risky before touching it. If a previous developer stacked caching plugins on top of each other, we remove the layers rather than adding another one.
No. It is a fixed-scope project quoted from the audit findings, starting at $799, so you are paying to fix named problems rather than buying hours. If you want ongoing monitoring afterwards, care plans start at $99 a month and cancel with a month of notice. Nothing obliges you to continue once the fixes are done.
No. We do not buy links, place guest posts, or run any scheme Google would classify as a link scheme, because the downside lands on your domain rather than ours. Google ranks local results on relevance, distance, and prominence, and prominence is fed by links and reviews you earn.
Yes. That means Google Business Profile setup, local schema markup, and making sure your name, address, and phone number match across citations. Inconsistent details across directories are one of the most common reasons a local business is invisible in map results despite ranking fine organically.

Google says Core Web Vitals, alongside other page experience signals, line up with what its core ranking systems reward. It is not a standalone ranking boost you can buy.
“This, along with other page experience aspects, aligns with what our core ranking systems seek to reward.”
Google treats a page as fast on three measures. Largest Contentful Paint under 2.5 seconds, Interaction to Next Paint under 200 milliseconds, and Cumulative Layout Shift under 0.1. All three are read at the 75th percentile of real page loads.
“LCP should occur within 2.5 seconds of when the page first starts loading.”
