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. 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.

Technical SEO and Core Web Vitals fixes on the site you already own. Audit first, fixed price second.

Common problems

What we are usually called in to fix

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.

  • Businesses with a decent site that simply does not rank
  • Owners told they need a rebuild who suspect they do not
  • Sites failing Core Web Vitals in Search Console
  • Local businesses invisible in map and "near me" results

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.

Honest expectations

What speed and SEO work can and cannot do

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.

What's NOT included

What this service doesn't cover

The scope is deliberately narrow so the price can stay fixed. These fall outside 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

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.
Understanding Core Web Vitals and Google Search results, Google Search Centralhttps://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/core-web-vitals

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.
