SEO
in Selby.
Selby competes with Leeds and York for many service terms, but the local pack is lightly contested for most categories. A Selby business site with strong NAP signals and on-page geography cues can dominate the map quickly. We build SEO programmes designed for that landscape — not generic checklists.
The first twelve months
What to expect, and when.
Month 1–2
Foundations
Technical audit, schema, on-page rewrites, site speed work, Google Business Profile optimisation. Most of the early gains live here.
Month 3–4
Content
Targeted content addressing real Selby search intent — service pages, location pages, the questions your customers actually ask.
Month 5–6
Authority
Local citations, digital PR opportunities, and ethical link-building. By month six, we expect to see meaningful movement on primary terms.
Month 7+
Compounding
Iterative improvements, content expansion, and CRO. SEO is a flywheel — once it's spinning, smaller efforts produce bigger results.

Common questions
Asked, answered.
How do I compete with Leeds and York firms in Selby search?
+
By being clearly Selby. Most Leeds and York firms list Selby as one of many places they cover; few have substantive Selby-specific content. A site that genuinely owns Selby content outranks the bigger-city generalists in YO8 searches.
Can SEO drive B2B leads for a Selby industrial business?
+
Yes — and B2B SEO is where Selby has the biggest untapped opportunity. Most local industrial sites have weak SEO. A small, sustained investment in technical content and trade-directory citations opens up Page 1 quickly.
Does the Drax / energy-sector proximity affect Selby SEO?
+
For energy supply, contracting, and adjacent services, yes — there's a real cluster of energy-related search demand. I can structure content to capture that audience without it overshadowing your core local offering.
What does a website cost?
+
Our launch pricing starts at £250 for a 3-page starter website and £500 for a 5-page business website.
