What does an SEO consultancy actually do?
It works out why Google isn’t showing your website to the right people, then tells you how to fix it. That’s it. No magic, no secret sauce.
Plenty of agencies wrap that up in a monthly retainer. We’d rather give you straight advice at a fair price, then let you decide how much help you actually need.
| Typical agency | Unseen SEO | |
|---|---|---|
| How you pay | A monthly retainer | £150 audit, then £50 an hour if you want it |
| Contract | Often a minimum term | None |
| Who you talk to | An account manager | Matt, who does the work |
| What you get | Reports full of jargon | A plain English list of what to fix first |
How it works
Three simple steps, and you can stop after any of them. No packages to decode.
Start with an audit
For £150 we check your whole website and give you a plain English list of what to fix, most important first.
Fix it your way
Do it yourself, hand it to your web person, or book us by the hour for the bits you’d rather not touch.
Keep it ticking over
Use our free SEO tools and guides, or a bit of training, to keep things in good shape without a retainer.

A small SEO consultancy, on purpose
Big agencies love a long contract and a longer invoice. We don’t do either.
Unseen SEO is run by Matt, who’s spent over 7 years doing SEO at trusted agencies. Now he helps small businesses get seen online without a scary retainer, and you’ll deal with him directly from start to finish.

Common questions
An SEO consultancy works out what’s stopping your website showing up on Google, and tells you how to fix it. We start with a £150 audit, then offer hourly help at £50 an hour if you want a hand with the fixes.
Two prices: £150 for a one-off SEO audit, and £50 an hour for everything else, including content strategy, technical SEO and training. We’ll always tell you roughly how many hours something needs before we start.
No. There are no retainers and no minimum terms. You pay for the audit, or for the hours you use, and that’s it.
Yes. We’re based in Sheffield, but most of the work happens over email and video calls, so we can help small businesses anywhere in the UK, at the same prices.
No. We’ll explain everything as we go, in plain English, no marketing degree required.
That’s exactly what the hourly consultancy is for. £50 an hour, no big commitment.
SEO takes a while to bed in, and we won’t make unrealistic promises. What we will do is give you an honest plan and explain what to expect along the way.
We work with small businesses of all sorts across South Yorkshire. If you’re not sure whether we’re a good fit, just ask; it costs nothing to check.
