FAQ

Common questions.

What is SEO?

SEO is the process of improving your website so it can be found, understood and ranked by search engines. Traditionally this focused on Google's organic search results, but the line is now broader: SEO also considers how content is structured, how brands are understood as entities, and how information may be surfaced across AI-influenced search experiences.

Is SEO dying because of AI?

No, but SEO is changing. AI is altering how people find, compare and summarise information, but search visibility still depends on strong technical foundations, useful content, clear structure and trusted brand signals.

Should we hire an SEO agency or build an in-house team?

It depends on your goals and the complexity of your website. SEO now covers technical, content, analytics, reporting, development, ecommerce and AI visibility. An agency gives you access to a broader team of specialists, which can be more effective when you need direction, technical depth or support across multiple areas.

How long does SEO take to work?

SEO can create impact quickly when there are technical issues or clear optimisation gaps. In other cases it's a longer-term investment that compounds through content, architecture, authority and ongoing optimisation. An audit gives a clearer picture of what will move quickly and what needs more time.

How much does SEO cost?

It depends on the size of your site, the technical work required, the competitiveness of your market and the content support needed. An audit is usually the best starting point: it defines scope, priorities and investment before committing to ongoing SEO work.
