The local picture
What Is Different About SEO in Surrey?
Surrey is a county of separate towns, and customers search by town, not by county.
Guildford, Woking, Epsom, Reigate and Farnham each have their own local market. Someone in Woking looking for an accountant rarely types ‘Surrey’. Businesses that serve several towns need a page, and a reason to rank, for each one.
The county’s professional services, home improvement and private healthcare firms also face competition from London businesses reaching outwards. Clear local signals are what keep the local firm ahead.

In depth
How Does Google Choose the Map Results in Surrey?
Google chooses the three map results on relevance, distance and prominence.
Distance you cannot change. Relevance and prominence you can, and they are where the work goes: a complete profile in the right categories, pages that make clear what you do and where, and the reviews, links and mentions that show you are established.
The businesses in the top three are rarely the biggest. They are the ones that have done all three properly.
- 1RelevanceHow well your profile and site match what was searched for.
- 2DistanceHow close you are to the searcher, or to Surrey if they named it.
- 3ProminenceHow well known you are: reviews, links, mentions and your organic rankings.
In depth
What Does Local SEO Involve?
Local SEO is six jobs done consistently: profile, details, reviews, pages, citations and links.
None of them is complicated on its own. What separates the businesses at the top is that all six are done, kept up to date and agree with each other.
We audit all six for your business first, so you know which ones are costing you visibility.
- 1Google Business ProfileClaimed, complete and in the right categories.
- 2Consistent detailsName, address and phone identical everywhere.
- 3ReviewsA steady flow of genuine reviews, each one answered.
- 4Location pagesA useful page for each place you serve.
- 5Local citationsListings in the directories that matter.
- 6Local linksCoverage and links from nearby organisations and press.

How we work
Why Is Our Approach Different?
We do not take anyone’s word for what works in search, not even Google’s, until we have tested it.
We test individual ranking factors in single-variable experiments, changing one thing at a time and measuring the result. What works is rolled out to client sites. What does not is dropped.
It means the changes we make to your site are based on evidence, and it is why we say: no guesswork, just great results.
FAQs
SEO in Surrey: your questions answered
Do you have an office in Surrey?
No. Our office is in Cheltenham. We work with Surrey clients by video and travel when a meeting in person is useful.
Should I target Surrey or individual towns?
Individual towns first, in most cases. That is how people search. County-wide terms suit businesses that genuinely serve the whole of Surrey.
We serve several towns from one office. Can we rank in all of them?
Often, yes, with a properly built page for each area and a Google Business Profile that sets out your service area accurately.
How much does SEO cost?
It depends on your market and your goals. We scope the work with you and agree a price before anything starts.
