The Foundation Sprint

With solid foundations in place, your website will be ready to begin an SEO campaign.

The truth is, it’s actually pretty easy to figure out how to rank a website in Google. You just need these 3 important things:

A technically sound website following Google’s standards and guidelines

Quality content that fits your ideal customer’s search intent and keywords

A popular website that others link back to, to build backlink authority

Yes, it really is that simple to rank a website, but you need to have the basic foundations in place otherwise all your other efforts will fall apart.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sprints are short periods of time during which our team works to accomplish a specific amount of work on your website. Our sprints allow for projects and SEO campaigns to be more manageable, making it easier to deliver them faster and more often, focusing on just the tasks that move the needle.

We set a pre-determined schedule of work to be completed. As a client, you have a start date, an end date and you know exactly what work we will be carried out during that period of time. This is a vast difference from traditional agencies who want a monthly retainer and you have no idea what work they are actually carrying out for you.

New clients typically receive one Strategy Sprint, three Content Sprints, and a Link Sprint. Our returning clients, come back once or twice a year for Content Sprints, just to keep the competition behind them.

We do not have any contracts. The sprints are completed quickly, so there’s no need for long-term traditional SEO contracts.

The number of sprints needed depends on your website’s current standing, performance and your budget. Most clients use us for 2 – 6 sprints per year. During our consultation call, we will tell you exactly how many sprints we recommend undertaking.

We charge you a one-time fee based on the number of URL’s on your website. The more URL’s, the larger the effort, the higher the price per Sprint.
