We're based in Larkfield, just outside Maidstone, and have been doing SEO since 2009. Much of our work is for Kent businesses, from Medway to the coast, so we know how search works here, town by town.

Kent search is local, town by town
Kent is big and spread out. A customer in Chatham searching for a roofer sees different results from someone in Tunbridge Wells, and very few businesses cover the whole county equally.
We build campaigns around your real patch: location pages for the towns that matter, a Business Profile set up for your service area, and rank tracking across that area, not just from your postcode.
Towns we cover
We work with businesses across Kent and the South East, including:
- Maidstone and the villages around it
- Sittingbourne, Faversham and the Isle of Sheppey
- Medway: Chatham, Gillingham, Rochester
- Ashford, Canterbury and Whitstable
- Tonbridge, Tunbridge Wells and Sevenoaks
- Deal, Dover, Folkestone and Thanet
Why use a Kent agency
You can work with any agency remotely, and plenty of our clients are elsewhere in the UK and US. But a local agency brings local knowledge: which directories and local sites carry weight, how far customers will travel in each area, and which competitors dominate each town.

- Meet in person

Questions we get asked
Where in Kent are you based?
We're based at 280 Lunsford Lane, Larkfield, near Maidstone, and work with businesses across Kent, the South East, the wider UK and the US.
Can we meet in person?
Yes. We're happy to meet Kent clients in person, or work entirely by phone and video if that suits you better.
Do you only work with Kent businesses?
No. Kent is home and a big part of our client base, but we run local, national and healthcare campaigns across the UK and US.
Can you rank us in several Kent towns at once?
Yes, but not with one page. Map results depend heavily on distance, so we pair your Business Profile with a genuinely useful page for each town or area you cover, and track rankings in each one separately.
How long does SEO take for a Kent business?
Profile and citation fixes can move map rankings within weeks. Location pages, reviews and links build over three to six months, depending on how competitive your trade and towns are.
How much does SEO cost for a Kent business?
It depends on how competitive your market and area are. See our pricing for starting points, and your free audit will give you an exact figure.
