Specialist SEO services for Liverpool businesses

Nearly every other search result that you are going to find today for ‘Liverpool SEO’ or ‘SEO Liverpool’ is going to say something very similar.

It will be an SEO agency, freelancer or consultant telling you how fantastic they are. No doubt, they will have case studies of clients they have worked with and even offer you something for free such as a website audit and review.

So, why are you not yet convinced?

The truth is, that when everyone is saying the same thing, who can you believe? What criteria should you use when choosing a partner to work with on your SEO? Does it even make a difference who you choose?

We can clarify these questions, by starting with how search works.

Search has evolved; adding the word ‘Liverpool’ to the end of your search if you are based in or around Merseyside, is pointless. Google already knows where you are located and knows what you are looking for.

The way search engines deliver their results is probably completely different from the way you think!

If you search for ‘SEO Liverpool’ and the business next door searches for ‘SEO Liverpool’, chances are the results will be different.

The reason is quite simple. Search Engines these days don’t just serve you a result based on the words you type (or speak), they use a range of other variables.

Google uses elements such as your location, previous search history, how often you make the search, and what device you are searching on, to name but a few.

If you use a Gmail account, Google can (and will) read your emails to see if this page matches with something that you have been emailing someone about.

Scary, isn’t it?

Yes, it does. Google’s search results are often device specific, so if you are using a PC or Apple Mac, it will take your IP address as your location unless you’re signed in to your Google account in which case it knows exactly where you are.

If you have an Android tablet or mobile, you have to sign-in to your Google account to use them, so it can often place you based on these exact GPS coordinates.

All of this means that what was a simple search query for ‘SEO Liverpool’ has now turned into a challenge for Google. Its main driver is to provide you with the very best search result, it can use any and all information available to do this and to give you the answer.

Google uses everything it can to give you the search result you want. First time. Every time.

This is why it has been so successful over the past twenty years.

Actually, Google is now assuming that you won’t include that information.

In October 2014, Google released a change to the algorithm in the UK which was dubbed the ‘Pigeon’ update. This update enabled Google to start using the signals we talked about earlier to include more locally based results in broad queries.

So, for example, if you search for ‘barber’ right now wherever you are then there is a very good chance that you will see a local barber in the top ten organic results that appear.

You can further confuse the search engines by doing the search on your mobile whilst on a train.

We did this recently and it returned a barber shop near-by, based on Google knowing where we live. It also returned a couple barbers in the midlands, based on location whilst on the train, as well as a couple results in Manchester and Leeds where I had been in recent weeks.

So, whilst searchers are inherently lazy (that’s you and me by the way, sorry about that!), search engines will continue to try and find a way to get the results we are really looking for by using additional information to guess our intent.

Ironically though as search engines get better, we get lazier. So, when you’re looking for your local solicitor, second hand car dealer or skip hire firm in Liverpool you no longer have to add in the word ‘Liverpool’, although it might help.

Try a search with and without the word ‘Liverpool’ and see how different the results look.

Aqueous Digital are an award-winning family-run digital marketing agency. We specialise in organic and paid internet searchwebsite content strategy and reputation management for ultra-high net worth individuals.

Founded in 2011, by Jonathan Guy and his wife Emma, we set out with a clear vision to provide a different type of digital marketing service: a service based entirely on trust, loyalty, and collaboration (TLC).

This approach was prompted by an observation, the observation that some companies in the sector were misleading customers, over-promising and spreading unfounded myths about SEO.

We set out to be different.

Our specialism in search and reputation management is an essential part of our success. We now partner with a wide range of customers across many sectors and countries, but remain true to our ethical values. If there is an obvious clash of interest – this is a promise we make at the outset of every customer collaboration.

We won’t take on more than one customer in the same industry – this is a promise we make at the outset of every client introduction.

We also won best low budget campaign at the Global Excellence Awards 2021 for our work with ScratchSleeves.

We guarantee our proven paid and organic search strategies will provide your business with a framework to drive enquires, growth and turnover.

Frequently Asked Questions

We specialise in search engine optimisation (SEO), website content strategy, online marketing strategy and reputation management for high-net-worth-individuals. And the awards we are winning suggest that this strategy is working.

We work across all sectors.  If your business relies on your customers finding you through online search, we can help you grow your business and drive more traffic to your website.

Our main offices are in Sutton Weaver, Cheshire, UK

No. There are some sectors which we won’t work with on ethical grounds, but as long the work aligns with our Corporate Social Responsibly (CSR) and Ethical Policy., we can help

There comes a point were it is can be better to hire in house, but in our experience that only happens when your annual spend on SEO exceeds £70,000 (excluding outreach and ad spend).

Using a third party agency brings huge advantages, such as a whole team of specialists with up-to-date knowledge of digital marketing and the latest trends and advances in search technology, rather than one person trying to keep up with it all. Also, one person in house gets calling into meetings, can go off sick and requires at least a month off every year.

With Aqueous you get a team, not a person. You get experience across a range of sectors, not just your sector and as we invest in training and development, you get better people, delivering more value, more often to your business.

As well as removing the risks of recruiting the right person, we’re also likely to be far cheaper than hiring in-house and most importantly we are an agency you can trust.  Trust Loyalty and Collaboration (TLC) are at the heart of our operations and we place the success of our customers at the forefront of everything we do.

Because people ask questions every day. They type them into search engines and expect the right result. That can only happen if the search engines can find the right answer. We help you create the right answers.

The very best content strategies are those that focus on getting you noticed in the searches that bring the best customers to your website. In short, it’s not about being popular or following the latest trend, it’s about relevance, accessibility and being there when customers need you.

The good news is that we’ve worked on content strategies since before it became a buzz word, so we’re well versed in what it takes to make your website rank.

Absolutely not. We always adopt ethical and ‘white hat’ practices when it comes to digital marketing, search engine optimisation, content production, reputation management and link building.  Quick fixes and artificial boosts are simply a waste of your time, and just not our style.

It is possible to get to ‘number one’ for a keyword within a few weeks, but if it is a particularly competitive keyword then the only way to do this is to cheat the Search engines. Some firms find this an acceptable solution, but as the Search Engines always catch up with this and penalise the site, it is short-sighted and ineffective strategy and not one we pursue.

We offer a range of SEO and digital marketing services, starting at £1,500 +VAT per month. Depending on needs, we have a range of packages to suit most growing businesses. Contact us directly for a no obligation quote and a free audit of your website.

Aqueous Digital is an independent family-run business.  We are a limited company. Registration number in England and Wales is: 05604273

There are many agencies out there who will claim to be ‘full service’ and jack of all trades.  In our experience, this is very rarely the case. They will generally have strong skill sets in some areas, but weaker delivery in other areas.  They will claim to be able to deliver all services, but will be sub-contracting some services without your knowledge. We are different, we specialise in search and reputation management exclusively.

Most commonly our contracts are 12 months, but this can vary depending on the work being delivered. We guarantee that within the first few months, you’ll know whether you like us or not. Within six months you’ll start to see some real traction and results. And within a year, you’ll know why you came to us.

Yes, we offer a free audit of your website. Contact us today to arrange yours.

We use a range of specialist professional writers with knowledge of a wide range of sectors. Plus, it all starts with you. We create the strategy, based on you on boarding call, and then produce content that we all agree will drive the right traffic to your website.

SEO is a medium to long term strategy and typically take at least six months before you start to see a tangible return, though sometimes, depending on what you are targeting, this can be quicker.

We provide all our SEO services in-house and only outsource copywriting to select associates—this allows us to use the very best professional writers available.

We work in partnership with a number of trusted partners who are able to build and design a website to your specifications/budget and ensure it is full optimised for ongoing SEO work.

Aqueous Digital operates internationally.  We are able to deliver all our services remotely over the phone, via email and conference calls. We do love to meet up with our customers for a chat face-to face-too, so this is always an option for every customer.

We’ll give you monthly update reports on the progress of your online growth. This will be written in plain English, with no geek speak or marketing jargon and we’ll always be available at the end of the phone or email to answer your questions or talk about next steps.
