2025 is proving to be one of the most transformative years in SEO.

CTR is plummeting for top terms, and users have new ways of finding what they want through LLMs and social media.
Most SEOs feel on the back foot. However, there couldn’t be more opportunities on the table.

About us

Most keyword research is backwards.

You obsess over search volume while customers are literally telling you what they want in forums, support tickets, and site searches. We spend more time reading Reddit threads than keyword tools. Because that’s where we find the real questions.

The messy, emotional ones that reveal actual buying intent. Your customers don’t search for “premium leather footwear”. They search for “boots that won’t fall apart after 6 months like my last pair”.

The magic happens when you map these real phrases to where people are in their journey. Someone googling “is it worth paying more for” isn’t ready for a product page. They need reassurance, not a buy button. 

Most keyword research is backwards. Marketers chase high-volume, high-competition terms—yet these searches often show little buying intent. The result? Traffic that doesn’t find answers and leaves for competitors. The problem is intent. Someone searching *“is it worth paying more for…”* isn’t ready for a product page—they want reassurance first.

Worse, most strategies ignore where people are actually searching. With our client Dreams, we saw on Reddit and Mumsnet that parents asking about double beds often mentioned teenagers. By adding “teenager” to the top copy, rankings jumped from #7 to #1.

Our approach starts with customers: Where are they searching? What’s their intent? How can we position ourselves as the solution to their problem?

Your website structure is a conversation with someone who can’t ask questions. Think about it: in a physical store, customers can ask “where’s the bathroom?” or “do you have this in blue?” Online, they click around hoping your menu makes sense. If it doesn’t, they leave. Navigation should be boring in the best way, so intuitive it becomes invisible. 

Site architecture is your first chance to improve user experience, showing visitors that you understand what they need and how you can help. Yet most e-commerce sites rely on cookie-cutter templates.

Our clients don’t fear algorithm updates because their sites are built around real user intent. Whether someone is browsing, seeking inspiration, or looking for answers, the best brands—and Google—favour sites that make this effortless.

Product pages that convert solve problems. We’ve seen gorgeous product pages with perfect SEO that convert terribly. Why? because they list features instead of addressing the voice in the customer’s head asking, “But will this actually work for me?” Your title tag might say, “Waterproof Hiking Boots – Size 9.” But your customer is thinking, “Will these keep my feet dry on that Scotland trip?” Address the real concern, not just the technical spec. 

What’s the purpose of a product page? Too often, marketers assume every visitor has followed the same funnel and is ready to click “buy.” In reality, few customers behave “by the book.” Awareness might come from a 10-second TikTok, while consideration could take weeks or seconds for an impulse buy.

No two product pages serve the same purpose. Our job is to create pages that answer the customer’s biggest question: “Will this work for me?”—and clarify why your product is the best choice over competitors.

 

Category pages are the overlooked middle child of Ecommerce SEO. Brands pour attention into product pages and homepages, yet category pages are where browsers turn into buyers.

The category pages we design for clients have become industry benchmarks. Done well, they give users the information they need, narrow choices, build trust with reviews and signals, and guide shoppers seamlessly from browsing to buying.

Tech SEO is like plumbing. When it works, nobody notices. When it breaks, everything goes wrong. The unsexy truth is that most technical SEO is just being thorough: checking your mobile usability, fixing your redirects, and making sure Google can crawl your products. It’s maintenance, but when it’s done right, everything else gets easier.

The SERP has evolved. There are ~70 different ways you can appear in SERPs in 2025. SERP features take up about 55% of the above‑fold screen space on a typical SERP. It’s now more important than ever to have properly optimised schema and structured data to ensure you’re owning more SERP real estate.

Internal linking is your chance of influencing where users go next. More ≠ better. The more internal links you have, the muddier the water gets and the more confused users become. Someone reading about coffee grinders might want to know about coffee beans. Someone looking at running shoes might need running socks. The key is being helpful, not pushy.

Without optimised conversion journeys, best-in-class strategies lose money. Every bounce, every percentage point drop in conversion rate, and each penny lost tells a story that you need to hear.

We’ve encountered countless challenges stemming from inaccurate, fragmented, and limited campaign data. We make the data part of search marketing simple. You’ll have all the right information to make strategic decisions without the number-crunching headaches.

We’ve spent over 1,000,000+ hours refining how search marketing teams & strategies should function. Our audits are about working towards a top-level, world-class search strategy. Maybe your competitors rank for terms you never considered. Maybe your site speed is killing mobile conversions. You walk away knowing exactly where growth lies.

How do we drive profit for Ecommerce brands?

Most ecommerce brands face one of two problems: plenty of traffic that doesn’t convert, or strong conversion with too few qualified visitors. Real growth requires both.

We help leading brands close this gap—optimising for the searches real buyers make and turning that traffic into customers. The result is sustainable growth from organic search: more qualified visitors, higher conversions, and measurable revenue tied directly to our work.

Transparent, custom reporting. Every phase and result is shared on our biweekly checkpoint calls.

We’re firm believers in best practices but wise enough to know that they’re not always possible. We’ve spent years honing our skills and responding to all sorts of business scenarios to get maximum impact, whatever the hurdle. 

With clarity, purpose, and an understanding that development queues are rarely friendly, we’ll help your website get crawled, ranked, and put in front of your target market.

Your in-house team stays lean while tapping into the brightest minds in SEO, with direct access to us via Slack and Asana. We integrate seamlessly and flex to your policies, culture and ways of working, providing expertise exactly when needed.

We make your marketing profitable and scalable. Revenue is the metric that matters.

In the pursuit of rankings and sales, it is easy to lose your sense of brand. Producing SEO content and PR stories that don’t resonate with your target audience or speak of your brand’s values.

Never lose sight of what makes your business great. Build search engine traffic and audiences that align with your customer profiles for improved brand recognition.

We ensure that every effort enhances your market position & hits your target at investment return.

Since their inception, search engines have promoted the sites which best serve user needs. In today’s world of machine learning and AI, they’ve supercharged their ability to recognise which websites do that best. That’s why human-first search engine optimisation is key to future-proofing yourself from algorithm changes and ranking fluctuations.

SEO starts with the human behind the search. We build web experiences and brands that engage real people.

How We Use Ecommerce SEO To Build Your Brand

On-site SEO is more than just keywords and code. For us, it’s a fundamental part of building a powerful brand experience. Here’s how our approach to Onsite SEO strengthens your brand

1️⃣ Meet User Needs 

Anticipate what users want. Guide them through a clear, logical journey that answers their questions at every step.

2️⃣ Deliver Human Experiences

Help users find solutions fast. Smooth, intuitive paths boost satisfaction and keep people engaged.

3️⃣ Build Trust and Affinity

Make your site the go-to resource. Consistent, helpful content turns visitors into loyal advocates.

Our approach starts with humans. Where does your site fail to connect? Where does your architecture disrupt intent? Which missed touchpoints let both humans and search engines slip through the cracks? The result is an audit that stands to serve the humans using your site. We’ve found that to be the best way to convert users and withstand algorithm updates.

Keyword research has a basic flaw. Most people get caught up in search volumes and chase after competitive terms without thinking about what searchers actually want. So, the traffic you earn is irrelevant and worthless. You need to understand search intent. Someone asking, “Is it worth paying more for? ” isn’t ready to buy anything; they want validation and advice first.

We approach keyword research differently. We start by understanding your customers. Where are they looking for answers? What drives their searches? How can we position your business as the ideal solution to their challenges? That way, we drive high-intent, convergence-ready traffic much more efficiently.

Far too many SEOs optimise for algorithms and chase best practices. That’s not how search engines work anymore. We’re Human-First. Our blueprint for clients is clear and useful category pages that solve problems and product pages that win trust and handle the questions that linger in the back of the user’s mind. Our internal linking, schema, and copy work because they mirror human decision-making, focusing on real objections, and the psychology of buying online. The better the SEO, the smoother the conversion journey and vice versa.

When customers visit your website, they all have a different intent. Sometimes that’s browsing, other times they need answers, and occasionally, they’re looking to purchase. We’re building sites that honour the navigational intent of the humans who use your site. Clients don’t panic during algorithm updates because their sites are built to genuinely serve users, not follow the ‘best practice’ of the last algorithm update. And search engines are recognising this as a positive ranking factor now more than ever, meaning you hold the advantage over your competitors through every new SERP feature, AI overview, and LLM that search engines have to throw at you.

We target links where your audience hangs out, not just based on domain authority or link volume. Our campaigns are designed to make you memorable, cited, and included in conversations about your industry. Our measure of success is not a banklink count; it’s whether you’ve earned a seat at the table among decision-makers and advocates in your space and whether Google sees you as the topical authority yet.

Featured snippets and SERP features are prime real estate that you need to occupy. Today, SERPs offer around 70 different ways to appear. Rich results and featured snippets cover ~55% of the above-the-fold screen space. The first result displayed to users who search for “best running shoes for flat feet” is a featured snippet. The product carousel appears as the first result when users search for “wireless headphones under £100.” We analyse which SERP features appear for your key terms, then format your content to win them. Sometimes we need to rewrite a paragraph to answer questions more directly. Sometimes, it adds structured data so Google can display your prices and ratings. The goal isn’t just visibility but to capture clicks from people ready to buy.

We build topical authority with content clusters that match buyers’ thinking and searching. We build topic coverage that establishes your brand as the go-to expert in your field. Content focuses on genuine value, relevance, and information people want to read. We work in agile 2-week ‘sprints’, meaning when SERPs change or algorithms update, we can adapt quicker than your competition. The result is content that performs well in search while genuinely helping humans on your site. You get high-intent traffic, stronger brand authority, and supporting content that helps guide traffic from inspiration to consideration and conversion.
