SEO for detail shops
SEO for a shop isn't about tricks. It's about having a good page for every search your customers type, and making sure Google has found every one of them.
How we do SEO for shops
Most of your future customers will find you through a few hundred specific searches: each service, each town you serve, each car model you work on, and the questions people ask before they buy. Our job is to make sure your site has a strong page for each one, that Google has indexed it, and that it turns visitors into calls.
1. Build the pages
Service pages, town pages, car-model pages and buyer guides, each written for your shop. Not templates with the town name swapped in: Google recognizes those and ignores them.
2. Get them indexed
Every new page goes into your sitemap and is sent to Google the day it goes live. We check which pages Google has actually indexed, find out why the rest aren't, and fix what's on our side.
3. Keep adding, every week
For the first three months we add new pages every week, then a steady few each month: more towns, more models, a blog post. Each run starts from your Search Console data.
4. Fix pages that get seen but not clicked
Search Console shows which pages Google shows a lot but few people click. Those get a better title and description, which is often the fastest win in SEO.
5. Measure what matters
Google Analytics tracks calls, texts, quote forms and bookings as separate events, so your monthly report shows leads by source, not just traffic.
Questions about SEO
How long until I see results?
New pages usually show up in Google within weeks. Rankings for competitive searches build over months. Your monthly report shows exactly where you stand compared with the week we started.
Do you use AI to write pages?
We use AI tools to help draft, the same way most agencies now do, and every page is written for your shop: your services, towns, prices and photos. We never publish the same wording on two shops' sites, because Google ignores copies.
What do you need from me?
Access to your Google Business Profile, your Google review link, and photos of your work when you have them. We handle the rest.
