An answer

Can you do the SEO for my existing website?

Yes, on any website. If we did not build it, we start with the £450 SEO audit, because it tells us what your platform will let us change and whether the site is sound enough to invest in. Ongoing search then starts from £550 a month on a site we did not build.

The £450 SEO audit works on any website, on any platform, and comes first.What the SEO audit includes

Yes, whoever built it

The £450 SEO audit does not care who built your site or what it runs on. WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, something a developer wrote for you in 2019. We look at what is there and we tell you what we find, including the fixes you can make yourself for nothing, on the platform you already have.

The monthly work is open on any site too. It starts from £400 a month on a site we built and from £550 a month on a site we did not, and on a site we did not build it starts with the audit.

Why the audit comes first on somebody else’s site

Two reasons, and both of them are about not taking your money for work we cannot do.

The first is reach. How fast the pages load, how each page describes itself to Google and to AI assistants, how the content is structured, how quickly a change can go live: on some platforms all of that is in the editor, and on others it is behind a plugin, a theme file or a paid tier. The audit tells us which of those you have, so the monthly plan is written against your site rather than against a site we imagined.

The second is whether the site is sound enough to build on. Before we take on monthly work we check that the platform, the theme and any extensions are up to date or can be updated, that there are no known critical security problems, that HTTPS is valid, that you hold the admin access and own the domain, and that working backups exist before we touch anything. If any of that fails, we say so and decline the monthly work rather than publish content onto a site that is one bad week from going down.

What we will and will not touch

On a site we did not build, we work through your editor. We publish content, and we edit page titles and descriptions. We do not install or configure plugins, edit themes, change code or move hosting, and we do not take responsibility for problems that were there before we arrived. Your monthly report says what was done and what was blocked, so the limits are visible rather than absorbed quietly.

That is also why the floor is higher on a site we did not build. Working inside somebody else’s platform takes longer, and pretending otherwise would show up in the results rather than the invoice.

What that leaves you with

Four real options, and none of them require a new website today.

  1. Take the audit and act on it yourself. Every report ends with the fixes that cost nothing and need no developer. Plenty of people stop here, and that is a complete outcome.
  2. Take the audit and give it to whoever maintains your site. It is written to be handed over. You own it.
  3. Take the audit, then the monthly work on the site you have. From £550 a month, scoped to what your platform actually allows.
  4. Build a new site, then take the monthly work. Only if the audit says the structure itself is the limit, and only if the numbers work for you.

When the platform really is the problem

Sometimes it is not a preference. A site built on a page builder with thirty plugins can be made better, but it cannot usually be made fast. Speed is one of the few things that can be measured rather than argued about, which is why it is where these conversations end up.

The audit will say so plainly, with the measurements attached, so you can judge it rather than take our word for it. If the answer is that the site is not worth the monthly investment, that is what the report will say, and the £450 comes off a new website if you commission one within 30 days.
